To me, this is a sign that the local resistance to ICE is effective. They need to waste resources in overstaffing a single city just to beat the obstacles being set up
Come rain, or shine, hail, sleet, or snow, fascist feddy is always at the ready to be everywhere you don’t need or want them to be.
No constitutional right will ever go unviolated and wild gangs of unarmed women and children will no longer roam freely through their own neighborhoods terrorizing the streets of America.
As long as team fedduccini foreskin is on the job, occupying cities, keeping America safe, and making America great again by murdering civilians and holding Americans in psychological captivity (or possibly even in physical captiity if you look at them the wrong way) Americans can rest easy.
So Minneapolis is going to be the modern day Fort Sumter.
Trump is going to cause a civil war and I am all for it. Never should have lifted our foot off the South’s neck.
These ICE terrorists have apparently never seen a Ukrainian drone video.
I’m not saying roll over and accept fascism, and if it does come to civil war so be it, but civil war is not anything I am rushing to.
I get wanting to fight back. I’m mad as hell. I want nothing more than most politicians (on both sides) and billionaires to be stripped of all their wealth and power, and many of them to never see the outside of a cell. I just want to avoid being a statistic, or living with the memories of dead loved ones and bombed out neighborhoods.
Whose waging the class war have spent good money to turn American basement dwellers into the real men they always dreamed they would be. and slap some ‘police’ regalia on your vest and now you are LEO. There are not 10’s of millions of Trump supporters ready to take to the streets to fight the “radical left”. That number is abysmally smaller than that. No. Most wake up to the face that we are ALL being erased. Their empty pocketbooks screaming at them is finally getting through and Trump knows it. Get ready for a big bribe this summer from the GOP is the form of a big check or .50 gas.
You’re already in it.
And because nobody has fought back, they can civil war easier, until one day, they come for you, and nobody is left, because nobody wanted to break the facade of their tidy peaceful american dream.
Dude I keep seeing all of you people bloviating this nonsense. It’s very easy to just tell people “oh yeah just go kill people and risk your life.” And then everyone applauds and upvotes. It’s not about “living in delusion” it’s about how genuinely difficult it is to tell people to just go to war. It’s easy to just armchair this and I keep seeing it all over Lemmy but dude I haven’t even made it a quarter of my life yet, and most of my true cognizant semi adult life has been absolute dogshit. And now suddenly people who don’t live here are telling me to just go die. That’s scary as hell man. I wish people would think before they just type this shit everywhere.
seriously, especially when…
- controlled, precise violence is dramatically more effective than wanton violence
and…
- the overwhelming majority of murders go unsolved (most “solved” murders are via confession, because they’re crimes of passion). it really isnt that hard to pull off if you put even the barest amount of thought into it
anyone who wants to play rambo or whatever can just start making a list and working their way down it, just remember…politicians are replacable, it’s the $ behind the Man you want to go after.
The facade is broken. The goal of the Trump administration is to tear down the last scraps of democracy standing in their way. He’s escalating and we are so close to an all out war, but there’s also a reason this entire thing has been dragged out for as long as it has. There’s a reason he hasn’t just sent the military and Palantir drones into cities (yet). He needs at least some corporate support to survive and corporations still need people to continue to buy their shit. This is literally why he is starting a war in Venezuela, and taking over the Venezuelan state run oil company that until now was collecting 61% of Chevron’s profits.
He has tanked the economy, and he is hemorrhaging support like he slashed his own wrists in a warm bathtub. For a civil war to break out, one “side” of the country turning on the other is kind of a necessity. Right now, there is no “side” for Americans to really fight. There’s just Trump and his illiterate group of SS soldiers who are losing more and more support from his base by the day. Encouraging people to help him out by officially kicking off the “civil war” for him and attacking the fucking military police, is giving him exactly what he wants, and is about as shitty and transparent as encouraging somebody to go ahead and leave their finger prints on the gun you know will be used to frame them.
There won’t be a civil war. The left would have to fight back for there to be a war. This is just a fascist take-over.
Trump is going to cause a civil war and I am all for it.
Speak for yourself.
It’s either you’re all for it, or you’re all for status quo. Pick your poison.
Yup it’s either choose to prepare for the coming war both emotionally and materially, or have the choice thrusted upon you with no lube. Nobody in America will get to sit on the side lines, the fascists will keep pushing til we fight or until they have locked the majority of us in concentration camps or killed us.
Our choices are fight or be enslaved.
It’s ok real men will do your bidding. Mean scrolling and rage posting is working out real good for you so far!
Sure Jan.
We’re IN a civil war. It’s already started.
Good time to remember that there’s a lot that can be done that makes life hard for an invading force at multiple layers of passivity. You don’t have to always comply. Put pressure on hotels to refuse business so they don’t have comfortable spaces to sleep, deny service and food to agents at markets and restaurants, create visual systems and codes amongst your immigrant neighbours so that they can be aware when you have recently spotted an agent. Offer places to hide or stay to people who have gained their ire or are likely targets, take courses in first aid or reach out to causes that need volunteers.
If you are more bold target things instead of people. Sugar in gas tanks, nails in tires, detergent thrown on windscreens, block roads they egress through regularly with things that take a long time to move or clean up that block roads or make them hazardous. Buildings have toilets that can be backed up or alarm systems that can disturb rest, phone numbers that can be found and spammed with bot callers or printers or faxes that can be sent endless jobs of black pages. Anything and everything that can be a minor annoyance, a problem that adds up or disables their ability to move, eat, sleep or relax.
Hope they fuck off for good as parade season ramps up.
