Maybe installing a government run by neo-Nazis was a bad idea?

Why aren't Americans shooting at ICE agents. It's that what the 2nd amendment was for?

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Right, but if you start shooting, then you're 100% dead, and for what? A 10pm news blip? Defend yourself, but dont commit suicide for nothing. Organize and resist.

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You're going to "organize and resist" while the USA quietly slips into an authoritative regime.

Then it will be too late.

[–] Lucky_777@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Dying for nothing doesn't help the cause either. What do you suggest? Start killing ICE agents on site? How long do you really think you would last?

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 hours ago

Dying for nothing doesn’t help the cause either.

Is it for nothing?

The USA is a failing country right now. It won't be coming back from this without intervention.

Protests will not fix the problem because the people in charge don't care about the laws. They're on course to start rounding up people they don't like and shipping them off to black sites. They're already talking about arresting democrats.

The USA is currently fucked and unless you can ramp up your actions against the current regime, it's lost.

Where are all those brave Americans chastising the cowardly Russians for not standing up to Putin's bullshit? What happened? I thought you were all armed to the teeth, and brave as fuck? But now somehow everyone suddenly has become so damn sensible in assessing the threats to themselves personally. I wonder what changed. No longer gong ho about revolution when it comes with personal costs, are we? Who would've thought...

But someone did try to take out Trump, unlike cowardly Russians who can't even stand.

[–] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

this may be difficult to believe but many americans are not interested in killing people

[–] KingPorkChop@lemmy.ca -2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Sending Americans off to south American death camps is cool though, right?

[–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago

If this article is any indication clearly some people are against that as well

[–] fibojoly@sh.itjust.works -5 points 1 day ago

You're right. That's extremely hard to believe.
