Fuck anyone who supports him or capitulates

You mean bend over... they're bending over and spreading their cheeks for the whole world to see.

Fascist collaboration

There have been protests nearly weekly at this point, the media has been silent about most of them.

The weather is finally getting nice again. They'll get too big to ignore.

They can just shoot microwaves or sonic blasts to disperse crowds these days. Cover all your bases

Any day now?

It's like the end of Aladdin where Jefar got the lamp

I wish to be the most powerful genie!

Trump is definitely dumb enough to fall for it, but there's no genie to grant his wish.

I believe ADX Florence counts as "itty bitty living space", I vote we skip to that part. Stuff Elon in with him as a substitute for Iago and we're golden.

I protest often. There are protests practically daily in NYC.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's great to hear! It's not covered in our national media (danish) very well.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

They’re not covered in the states either. Most of us know not to bring phones to protests, so the crowd videos are pretty limited, but you can find some on TikTok and Instagram. The next big one is on April 5th. Keep an eye out on social media for posts.

I didn’t understand why a national wide on April 5. It should’ve been on the 2nd from Donald’s “big news” and then on the 20th.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Protests are bigger on the weekends.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 days ago (2 children)

We've crossed that effectiveness threshold already. Its time to grab your 2A or shut the fuck up.

MAGAs will be there too, because they are beginning to realize they are being royally shit on. In fact, expect them to lead the charge, violently - not all of them, but probably the majority of them.

To quote contra points: I no longer hope for good things.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

Over on Reddit today I got the coveted "[Removed by Reddit]" award for a comment where I merely predicted that this would end in violence. This is the Fediverse and I can be a bit freer in saying that at this point that's probably the better option for America, to make it absolutely clear what "side" the general public is on.

I doubt that America will choose the better option, though. Cowards.

It's bitterly ironic that the only people who have taken literal shots at Trump so far were themselves crazed Republican nutballs, his own base. I give America no bonus points for those attempts.
