Now that social media sites are banning Trump, I can see them moving to ban communist/socialist/anarchist accounts under the same pretext of "fighting extremism" or something.
The tell is the phrase “ideologically inspired”
Yep, that just screams purposefully vague. It's possible that they'll also try to do some kind of crackdown on the right, though, it wouldn't surprise me if they're scared shitless of the chuds rn. These are privileged, sheltered, civility-obsessed people who've just seen that there's a large number of really pissed off folks in their country who want their blood and are willing to kick in their doors. We all know that fascism is compatible with the interests of capital, but the mob is after the Dem leadership personally. If they'd have any lick of sense, they'd go nazi hunting now, but it's the Dems we're talking about. They could absolutely fuck it up simply out of fear of not appearing neutral enough.
Which means they absolutely will go after the left more than the right. For every group of facebook Q boomer they'll bust for openly discussing how to get an anti-tank missile for :dem: , they'll go after ten BLM organizers. Biden will be in full siege mode from day 1, it absolutely will be a priority to neuter and co-opt any opposition from the left. Horseshoe theory and framing everybody who's left of Kamala as a nazi, and framing all nazis as a nacho socialists, will be the ideological foundation for this.
that they’ll also try to do some kind of crackdown on the right, though
most of them don't have ideology though, so I don't think this is for them
Yeah he's definitely not going to crack down on petty-bourgeoisie Trump dorks like a lot of the people at the Capitol event.
lol people tried to convince me it would be easier to organize under president Biden
Hey, he said he's gonna encourage people to form unions!
Ignore that the last admin he worked in fucked over union workers hard after promising many similar things
I'm sure it was lack of funding that prevented law enforcement from reading the constant stream of declarations from the far right on their largest platforms that they intended a massive action on the sixth in DC and also wanted to kill congresspersons.
LOL Yeah they need additional funding to literally just type in TheDonald.win?
I bet it's Virgil. The monkeys paw is he wished to be on another podcast but that podcast is bad faith.
Nah see that's why it's Will.
Virgil wished on Will and it ended up like you said, Matt wished to teach history and all he got was the cushvlogs where he shouts at anonymous strangers online that try to bully him, Amber wished for a popular left wing political movement in America and ended up with the Bernie campaign, and Felix wished for his bit characters to become real and that was a curse in and of itself so the wishing dildo didn't change anything.
Of course it will.
Idiots calling all of this "domestic terrorism" are just creating a slippery slope. Enjoy being charged with domestic terrorism next time you do a sit in in a federal building or tear down a confederate statue.
I'm reading all of this as if the thing on the 6th never happened and the bills were drafted right after the BLM protests. The 6th was just the cover they needed to civility launder it.
This is not good folks. We don't need any additional surveillance or finance for surveillance and I don't care what the right wing morons are doing.
tbf there's already trillions of dollars invested into monitoring us i dont think a few billion will make that big a difference. we gotta continue doing what we are.
Not really. It will be 99% leftist groups and a single far right terrorist group who will mysteriously manage to do an attack succesfully despite the ardous monitoring.
Then we'll discover that single far-right terrorist group was led by the FBI, and it'll be used as pretext to crack down on more Leftists.
Thinking a lot about how Black Klansman focused on that guy infiltrating the Klan even though the real guy the story was based on actually spent most of his time spying on black liberation groups.
Expect a lot of very public cases of cops suppressing right wing militia types, while out of the public eye they're locking anarchists in prison without trial.
Wouldn't be surprised if there was a rash of "Leftist Anti-semitism" that needed to be cracked down on in the next few years.
Yes ... but every couple years they are also going to arrest a bunch of chud morons planning to kidnap a governor or something and whose main leaders are all FBI agents
You know the competent fascist that would come to power in 2024 we've been talking about? Yep, they'll be on the dem ticket. Republicans are too dumb and greedy to pull off a Hitler, it'll just be continual austerity with more and more state repression untill this whole shitshow of a country implodes. :agony-turbo: :agony-turbo: :agony-turbo:
oh, no no no no, there's a competent republican hitler out there, it's coming
maybe not in 2024, they're out there
Wish it was as obvious to the libs on my feed who were cheering on the cops or demanding harsher responses.
This is a stellar time for Dems to slide to the right. Every suburban-American who isn't a Q nutcase will consider distancing themselves from the Nazi pagans, and the more Joe can appeal to the right the more Dems can scoop up those lost sheep. Dems will move to a natural position as Big Center party and cut out even mild progressive voices.
Besides the fact that this will obviously be used against left protestors, this is just asinine. Criminalizing behavior doesn't do ANYTHING. They really have no idea why thousands of fascists raided the capitol building,
They really have no idea why thousands of fascists raided the capitol building,
Oh they know
