What’s wrong with being a hermit?

we don’t really… do consequences for the rich.

We used to. That’s why it didn’t used to be like this.

They should be treated like we treat Nazis of old.

Hide them in Argentina while giving them top positions at NASA and the CIA?

The scariest part is that every American I know personally has no idea any of these ICE raids are even happening, let alone that they’ve started detaining judges and mayors or what that even implies. Americans are so dangerously uninformed.

Except no mercy this time. No plucking any of them out of the trials to build rockets or create federal intelligence agencies or cutting any deals like the USA did with the Nazi’s. Fascists don’t believe in mercy anyway so why show them any?

And people expected Kamala to be different why?

Romans.

Actually, this is what happens when people ignore the wealth accumulation to the top under capitalism.

Probably so they can get money to “take care of their family.” That’s why I hate the excuse of “If I do what’s necessary, then I won’t be able to feed my kids or pay my mortgage” people because that’s the reasoning of a cop or a Nazi soldier putting a gun barrel to the back of a pregnant womans neck, “I’m just protecting my own.” As if prioritizing your own children over other children at large isn’t anything other than fascist. Those people are self-reporting themselves as narcs and should be feared like the plague. Everyone’s family is at risk now, fuck your own. People need to start realizing the world is bigger than themselves.

The populace outnumber the police by more than 1000:1. Yes, it could be a massacre, but if the populace want victory bad enough then they can get it. However i’m convinced that Americans would stay at home and stop protesting if police start shooting at them, Americans are cowards. History has proven that the US Gov’t could bomb and burn a US city to smithereens and Americans will do nothing as a consequence (Tulsa and Philadelphia)

I’m really sorry for you and your situation, I wish there was anything more I could do than tell you that (as not an American myself). If anything I hope your situation is a cautionary tale for anyone thinking of moving to America.

I wish i could, but if I do, I’ll never see my children again

What about when you’re in a situation where you have to report other anti-MAGA to protect yourself from MAGA? Would you rat out strangers you don’t know to protect yourself and your kids?

The “but my children” excuse does not make you an ally, it makes you a liability and untrustworthy. What if they decide to deport you? You’ll definitely never see your children again. What about other peoples children? Just because they’re not yours, they don’t matter to you? Children, aka the future, depends on you going out and fighting, not hiding behind your kids because “my kids are more important than your kids.” That mindset of fear and capitulation to fascists is exactly what creates fascism, so stop using your kids as a shield from responsibility. You decided to bring your kids into this situation, not us.

There are other ways to help on the frontline that don’t involve picking up a gun and getting shot. On the back end as well, people are needed. You have a unique set of skills, stop giving them to the people that bribe you with money and start using it towards your childrens future.

People will peacefully gather and hold up signs. That’s the only consequence.

I want the secret service to uphold their sworn oath to the constitution.

Americans wouldn’t. China does.

Penguins have gone through enough already.

String him up!

This is the only appropriate response, but Americans would prefer their symbolic cinematic marches with idols giving speeches as opposed to any real solutions.

They wont tho. It’s up to Americans, but since people have to go to work to feed their kids, that’s good enough reason to give away their futures to these psychopaths. “We can’t rise up because if I get arrested my kids can’t eat” crowd will be the first anti-MAGA’s to report on other anti-MAGA’s to protect themselves from MAGA, so either Americans have to capture these oligarchs themselves or continue holding signs above some sidewalk until they’re arrested for barely attempting to make a difference. Or just admit to themselves they’d prefer fascism over a little bit of discomfort.

I guess this is still preferable to protesting outside their mansions, for some reason? You might as well start going for their homes now, because if occupying a sidewalk and peaceful protest becomes a reason to be arrested then you can’t protest anymore, right? What about your job and kids, your mortgage? They won’t have a future if you go out and get arrested at a protest, so stay safe and stay docile.

Or, you might as well go all the way. No half measures, and all that.

But Americans have their 2nd ammendment and 11 guns per person. It’s more likely they’d shoot their kids in school before turning the gun on themselves out of force of habit, before a dictatorial “solution” is implemented.
