We need to remember this when the revolution comes, and people are hesitant to start shooting. THIS is how they see us. We need to see them the exact same way.
I’m finally black pilled on Republicans. I thought for years that they were just uneducated morons that could be redeemed. I then realized with the second administration that no, they’re just intellectually inconsistent and will do mental gymnastics ensuring they are never wrong nor accountable.
I feel like an extremist because I don’t see a solution that isn’t forced education or prison. Ignoring them doesn’t work, making fun of them doesn’t work, they’ve overcome societal safeguards and are immune to feelings of regret.
damn
I don’t see a solution that isn’t forced education or prison.
Dissolution back into independent states, with an underground railroad to get sane people out of the red states.
Yeah I know it sucks. This whole thing sucks. I wish we hadn’t lost the war over information, but now this is where we’re at. If we’re worried about external threats, we could accept Denmark’s offer.
You may be underestimating the number of conservatives in blue states.
It’s simple, let them have the South. It’s a shithole due to their idiocy anyway
Deport anyone who has voted R in the last 2 elections and close the border
Simple
Problem with that is that we’d be forcing their children to grow up there.
Good, nearly all of them just grow up to vote like their parents too
Maybe a few generations of crippling poverty and authoritarianism will weed out their tendency for monarchy
Nailed it.
This should be the top new story for every news media outlet. They should be covering this Tweet in deep detail. What does it mean? Why did they send it? Who suggested it? Who wrote it? Who approved it? Who are they addressing it to? Is it approriate for the White House to be threatening to kill anyone?
If HitlerPig doesn’t declare Martial Law and suspend elections, then this Tweet should be the centerpiece of EVERY election campaign.
It was about isis terrorists in Somalia.
Context matters - but that’s why you put out a press release, so you can include all the context.
So, doesn’t matter who it’s about, the US government used to at least lie about it’s bloodthirstiness.
Yes. What the fuck?!? This is reminiscent of an abusive relationship when she tries to leave.
The missing context is that this is directed at ISIS, not the general public
It’s still a tweet that should not be posted by any account of such importance, but they’re not quite just saying outright to the populace in general “we’re gonna kill you”
Good thing we all trust the federal government to give due process to people they will accuse of being ISIS agents working domestically in the US.
They’re disappearing people on the street in and they’re posting no context tweets saying “WE WILL FIND YOU-AND WE WILL KILL YOU”. I’d hold off on sounding so sure about what they mean for now.
Oh c’mon, a little sanewashing never caused any damage.
I mean it’s not exactly no context, it was in direct reply to another tweet that was simply cut out of the screenshot
It’s still incredibly unbecoming of an official government communication. I’m just saying we don’t need to overstate how bad it is, it’s plenty bad enough already
I don’t know, I think any government saying that they will hunt and kill people is pretty bad. Maybe something more along the lines of investigation and prosecution. I’d even accept using necessary force to protect citizens, territory, and those of our allies that we have promised to defend.
100% agree, which is why I called it bad
Fart has told the USAmerican people his plan though.
I’m not pretending that that isn’t happening. I’ve seen the videos going around and it’s truly horrifying. But the tweet in question literally does have context. It’s a quote tweet quoting a propaganda video about ISIS. I’m not so ignorant as to completely dismiss the possibility that this wasn’t JUST directed at ISIS, but cutting out the quoted tweet and just showing the quote is misinformation and i don’t think that helps anybody at the moment.
Meh…I’m a “first they came for the socialists” person, and Fart has told USAmerica his plan.
True, but FFS, really? Does that even need explaining?
These people are so dumb, so dumb. And petty. It’s like watching 15yo bullies living out their revenge fantasies
Thanks for the link. Context is ALWAYS crucial.
Couldn’t have been directed at nicer people
Meanwhile, we’re not even allowed to say on Lemmy, and definitely not on Reddit or X, anything about enforcing the legal punishment for treason.
I think that’s specific to .world.
Yep, that’s why I changed my instance. Bootlickers
.world is clearly run by US pushovers.
The Nazi party was more of a sophisticated evil than these idiot MAGAts. I can’t wait to see the Nuremberg style trials for these scum.

who the fuck are they talking about?
I think they’re referencing Liam Neeson in the movie Taken in a lame attempt to sound like they’re badasses.
Or are you asking who they’re threatening? You weren’t invited to the “Houthi PC Small Group” chat on Signal along with everyone else?
I think they’re referencing Liam Neeson in the movie Taken in a lame attempt to sound like they’re badasses.
What they’re actually doing is sounding like edgey teenagers.
I don’t have signal I didn’t get the invite
Is there a not joke answer or does the white house want us all to feel mildly concerned and/or afraid right now?

Who was this directed at ?
Yes
Its cropped to exclude that this is replying to something about bombing caves for Houthis
Sure, because that’s what responsible governments not run by murderous psychopaths tweet even in that situation.
I hate that Americans are so “war on terror” pilled that all we need to be ok with civilian casualties is that there was a single guy that the government says was a terrorist there.
ISIS, actually
I’ll take “What is terrorism?” for 500$, Alex.
Domestic terrorism.
Overseas terrorism has been integrated into the culture now.
It’s not terrorism and warmongering, it’s peacekeeping
WarkeepingPeacemongering!
Terrorism is…checks notes…taking material actions to stop a genocide (as required by international law)?
Edit: I realized this comment might be getting misunderstood. I am not saying that this is what the American government is doing with regards to the OP. I am saying this is what the people our government is currently accusing of terrorism are doing.
also see: speaking against genocide
Everyone has heard the hypothetical “if I could timetravel I’d kill Hitler”, right? Well, now’s the opportunity to depose of multiple aspiring Hitlers. Luigi Mangione laid the groundworks. They might not be building concentration camps, yet, but their greed is causing suffering of and/or killing just as many if not more.

✍︎ arscyni.cc: modernity ∝ nature.Any context whatsoever on who “you” might be?
Isis terrorists in Somalia apparently. According to the source posted in this thread. Still a fucked thing to say.
The poor of America.
Officially its terrorists in Somalia or Yemen or whatever. Unofficially its everyone who is not a white christian.

To whom it may concern
Its isis. The photo is edited to remove the included re-tweet of some alleged bombing isis footage.
Tesla protestors.
Dissidents
Well…
Aka “exhibit A”
Nuremberg 2: American Boogaloo
Say what you want about the Nazis, at least they had style.
And I’m saying that, with the meaning that Nazis are scumbag monsters that should all have been lynched slowly after WWII.
This, somehow feels like they want to be worse but they’re too incompetent to be worse
So, you can run and tell that?
Run and tell that.
Homeboy. Home, home, home-boy.
