Reporter in video describes the scene like nothing very interesting is happening, like it's all perfectly normal and mundane to zip-tie the hands of people in wheelchairs behind their back or pulled into unnatural and painful-looking positions, all the while repeating the phrase "big beautiful bill" over and over with a straight face. Our "news media" is nothing but propaganda and apologia for the regime.

Blame the cops. At this rate working these jobs you gotta know you're scum. They forfeit their value

What an absolutely dystopian future we're in.

[–] NeonAtari@lemmy.world 14 points 6 days ago (1 children)

What the actual fuck is going on

Consequences of the last election.

Mods removing shit?!

Whoo boy, looks like the .world mods are enforcing silent compliance with fascist brutality again, thats a lot of highly upvoted deleted comments.

One of these days they'll suck the boot so far down their throats they'll asphyxiatiate, but at least they'll pass with joyful tears in their eyes.

Whenever I see "Removed by mod" on a .world community, I know it probably said something I agree with. News communities shouldn't be hosted there.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Maybe, but people need to learn to speak in plausible deniability. You can check the user's moderation history to see what they said. Fascists were able to advance their ideas without getting shutdown with indirect speak and double talk. Maybe we need to learn the same.

Fascists love to take the gun, but leave the cannoli…

My comment was oblique; I agreed with an historical quote then made a LOTR reference. No overt calls for violence. Still removed.

e: Please check my moderation history to see what I said. I was the 3rd comment in that thread.

[–] teft@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (3 children)

They were talking about watering the tree of liberty. I'm sure you can find the correct quote and infer who was being referenced.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Patriots and tyrants, yep.

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by patriots asking tyrants really nicely to please stop brutally oppressing them."

[–] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 5 points 6 days ago

It needs a lot of watering.

Despicable.

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

As a disabled and queer woman, 3 categories that are now under attack, this makes me very angry. I’ll just say [removed].

[–] Tuxman@sh.itjust.works 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

But, just hear me out.. have you tried, like, NOT being a woman?

“You mean trans?”

…Fuck…!

[–] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 10 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

No, but I’ve definitely tried not being disabled.

It’s almost like you don’t just choose to be these things. Like, if I could be an able-bodied cishet christian man, I wouldn’t have these problems. My fault for not male-ing hard enough.

e: Wait, hold on….

Nope, still no penis. I’ll give it another go tomorrow.

Kegels are key. If you clench hard enough you can chip the tail off your XX chromosomes and make them XY.
