(Clickbaity title deserves a buzzfeed style subheadline) You won’t believe the second agenda point 😱😱🤯
Leaked memo? This shit was in Project 2025. We’ve known about it for years. One of the last steps is declaring martial law. I keep warning people, but this is 2016 all over again and people are calling me an alarmist, again.
People need to wake the fuck up to what is actively happening.
“This is not American”
How many FUCKING TIMES do we have to tell you mouth-breathing morons that this kind of shit is PRECISELY what the US has always been about? “Who could seen this com”- ALL OF US SAW IT COMING, and we’ve been begging you to pay attention for decades upon decades!
A stupid country full of stupid people who couldn’t pass an open-book text if there was a gun to their head. Ya’ll suck rocks.
It’s a bit harsh but yeah… Looking at the US from a distance I’ve been saying it is turning in some sort of weird industrial/corporate dictatorship resembling a third world country for a decade now.
Only thing I ever got back was, 'murica is the best country in the world".
And they still are saying that to this day…
It’s been that way for a very long time. Look at the wealth gap during the recession, look at the lifestyle gap there, and you can see just how much power and influence corporations have. It’s a country built on private business exploiting the working class in whatever new and innovative way is the trend for the season.
Businesses own the country and they always have. It’s worse now, by a lot, but it’s not different.
Tough part in the US is it’s 50/50. 50% idiots who have been spoon fed propaganda and fox new lies. 50% educated people who’s votes get suppressed because old as electoral college bs from the 1800s. Oh and gerrymandering. There are good Americans out here, problem is, the whole thing is rigged against us doing anything about it. Protest? National guard gets used against you… they own the house, the senate, the fbi, and the Supreme Court. Litterally the U.S. is cooked.
I will give it to trump though. They masterplayed the propaganda. It is unreal how fanatical these people are. They blindly follow question nothing. Madness.
The 50% idiots are still US citizens. I don’t know why people act like we’re all just supposed to act like millions of people, and millions more who are “undecided voters” just don’t count. I know there are good people in the US, really I do, but as a country you can’t just act like the people you don’t like aren’t such a major part of the fabric of the place. Besides, the propaganda isn’t even that clever and half the time is just an excuse for people to say what they’re already thinking out loud.
Ya’ll need to accept that this is who you are if you’re ever going to grow out of it. And you need to understand that I don’t give shit about the good people there if the main export of my neighbour is pain and suffering.
Canadians are disappointing me right now, and I’m not going to act like they aren’t Canadians. I’m from Ontario, and we couldn’t even rustle up 50% voter turnout to get rid of an obvious criminal at the helm of the province. That’s not me but is us.
Release the Epstein files
Regarding the joint ICE/ DoD operations in LA, from the memo:
It hasn’t been perfect, and we’re still working through best practices together, but I think it’s a good indicator of the type of operations (and resistance) we’re going to be working through for years to come.
They are counting on MAGA Nazi rule forever. There will NEVER be another fair election, if there any elections at all.
This is the initial step to create an armed military force within America, dedicated to controlling American cities and citizens by force.
What part of… “you’ll not have to vote again”, do people not understand?
People didn’t believe that he even said that, and when I showed them the video, they said it was out of context. And when I provided full context, they said he didn’t mean it like that. When I showed other examples of him suggesting similar, they shrugged. Pretty soon they’ll be saying it was always the plan, and we should accept it.
Next few years are gonna be an atomic answer to the question… “what I would’ve done in Germany 1930?”.
For the Americans and also for us European which can’t do much (and for many rising countries which hope in a better and more democratic life).
I never believed I would experienced anything most important than WWII, but what US are going to experience until the next election (or over), it’s going to impact the world balance even more.
only reason i didn’t believe (at firrst) is it sounded too coherent
They understood it well and wanted it. Magats want you dead and that’s what they voted for. They are not allies
Hey NRA, that thing you made out was your whole reason for existing is happening
Gonna stop it?
Where do you think most ICE recruiting ads go to?
Also, all those “under no pretext” people that come out of the woodwork any time a mass shooting is large enough to make the news.
Marines. In American cities. In June and July. “Guarding” federal offices and intimidating demonstrators.
And now, we’ve learned that smaller units have been sent to Florida and are prepping for deployment to Texas and Louisiana. The memo wasn’t a warning. It was a blueprint. A playbook for turning the world’s most powerful military force inward and turning constitutionally protected First Amendment political dissent into a “national security threat.”
Don’t believe Trump’s PR spin or the media’s pretending this isn’t as illegal and anti-democracy as it is. Don’t let the uniforms fool you into thinking this is routine.
This is not normal.
This is not legal.
This is not American.This memo, which Pete Hegseth and friends didn’t intend you and I would ever be able to read:
- Urges DHS to persuade top military brass to view immigration enforcement as a “homeland defense mission.”
- Seeks to embed armed, kill-trained military personnel inside ICE and CBP to “increase information sharing” and support “nationwide operational planning.”
- Frames transnational gangs and cartels as equivalent to al-Qaeda, a dangerous, dishonest leap that pretends to justify extreme, deadly force.
- And it admits, in its own words, that due to the “sensitive nature” of the meeting it documents, “minimal written policy or background” should be preserved.
Personally, I’m glad to see America’s military turned inward. Better than turning it outward.
The world just has to hold out until the American economy collapses. The American left (both the Democrats and the grassroots movements) is completely ineffectual, but the more Trump’s idiocy starts to impact the pocketbooks of his right-wing supporters the greater the chance for change.
You do realize that when dictatorships/kleptocracies burn through their economic output at home, they tend to turn outward (to war) to keep the pyramid scheme going? It’s not in anyone’s interest to let America metastasize like this.
Would you rather they start their invasions when they’re still strong? Yeah, it would’ve been nice if Americans gave a damn about democracy and actually responded to their country’s obvious slide to fascism over the last 20+ years, but it’s clear now that that was never in the cards. The only options were fascism under a self-centred moron like Trump, who’ll keep more of the damage contained to within the United States, or fascism under a Bush-style warmonger, who’s first response to any problem would be to start bombing.
Not sure about that distinction you’re making. Trump just threatened to invade Mexico.
Yeah, I saw a couple troops leaving for work this morning in Austin, Texas at the hotel I work out. I asked him some questions, but I didn’t believe his answers
What questions and what answers?
Are you here to round up Mexicans, are you based in Austin? The answer was no for both.
Yeah it’s called project 2025, it’s awful and they advertised that to us, they don’t care
Thank your local magat voters for taking away everyone’s future. Thank them very well.
Literally all of my neighbors.
Give them a slap…on the back?
…with a shovel!
No, it’s just a symptom of the disease, you all are responsible for this outcome, you have been working towards this since reagan, and yes all of you, left right democrats republicans, all of you.
And now you finally got what you’ve been asking for all this time and you want to blame someone else for it, typical.
What do you expect me to have done ten years ago to stop all this? Go on a shooting spree? Dumbass. I’ve protested, I’ve rioted, I’ve voted, I’ve signed useless online petitions, I’ve moved cities. My generation has been fucked since I was born in 1987. Now I’m just trying to survive.
What’s your brilliant plan, genius? And how is it my fault as an individual? Or are you some kind of hating troll living in moms basement or working a bot farm?
It’s also your fault for not telling your leaders to boycott, sanction, or otherwise ostracize the US rather than sucking up to them. What are you doing to insure your country is free from all influence from that shit hole?
So after some very basic sleuthing, I see you’re from the Netherlands and fucking lmao. That’s big of you to point fingers like that when you have white nationalists all over your fucking country as well. Get fucked, cunt.
That’ll teach those people who actively worked against this.
You’re definitely one of the ones who gets it.
The Fascist States of America is here.
But hey, let’s not talk about doing anything about it. Aaaand, let’s mock people who complain.
I only ever get excuses for why people aren’t defending their own democracy.
If you ever wondered how the Nazi holocaust could possibly happen, this is exactly how. We’ve got front row seats this time.
Plenty of historians documented the process. General apathy, combined with a delusional denial that anything bad could be connected with the superstar leadership. “If Hitler only knew” was actually a thing people would say about the suffering. And he enjoyed just as much support after the war as before, because, yeah, delusion.
If history doesn’t repeat, it certainly rhymes.
I wish we were allowed to talk about it on Lemmy without getting banned by the vast amount of conservative mods just “doing their jobs”
Talk about it without brushing up against laws. Talk about it like you have a brain.
The guy with the huge post talked about it and it’s not objectionable at all.
Lemmy is a free service and admins are just trying to stay clear of trouble. Surely you can understand that.
Just keep your head down and let it happen. —Lemmy
Maybe we need to be objectionable.
The issue is less that you’re being objectionable. The issue is that you’re trying to shove other people in front of you (admins) for them to be objectionable.
And it’s not that hard to follow the rules while still making your point.

Be slightly vague. If your target audience doesn’t get it, then I don’t think they were going to do much anyway.
i’m incapable of extending any emotion regarding fascism publicly nowadays. it has been beaten out of me by the gaslighting and accusations of doomerism. my favorite is when people i talk to say, well, what are YOU doing?," as if one of my main points hasn’t been we are all currently powerless without collective unity and not everyone is near support or capable of forming their own group. i don’t see any organization doing what needs to be done, because what needs to be done can’t be discussed, and on websites like Lemmy merely acknowledging that fact could flag my account.
You’re more concerned with your account than you are with talking about what needs to be done.
Appropriate username.
And yet you haven’t done what you’re advocating pot, Meet kettle
You sound like a MAGA
Go fuck yourself you trump supporting red hat.
I’m the one complaining about him, and you’re the one saying to stop complaining. You love Trump’s America, even if you dislike the man.
You may be one of the dumbest liars online, especially with your bullshit statement invented you fake.
You’re acting like maga.
Yeah and don’t forget to be especially mad at people who voted for Trump, like it hasn’t been building up for 40/50 years now.
The people in power will do anything to keep the people divided, and it’s working like a charm, the US population is being played like a fiddle since Reagan.
Is it more kid raping?
When the US finally collapses, I’ll be able to swoop in and get me some fat bitches?
Well, at least when we’re forced to let soldiers stay in our homes (like the British forced upon the colonists) we’ll finally be great again. I mean, that’s where we’re headed. Once he’s king, we’ll be great and all this democracy bullshit will be in the rearview mirror. FINALLY! A leader brave enough to just do what it takes and reestablish monarchy.
