This is not shocking. At all. I'm not sure what you all are so surprised about. You have a fascist dictator and his cronies rampaging through your country. This is expected until someone stands up to them, and I don't mean with a lawsuit.

[–] Treetrimmer@sh.itjust.works 3 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Americans too pussy to do anything.

[–] guyoverthere123@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago)

Why would they do anything?

77 million voters chose Trump

90 million voters sat at home and let it happen.

167 million voters were, and maybe still are, on board with Trump and Trumps policies.

Anna from tyt a so called "progessive" whatever that means says you are over reacting. She thinks you need to calm down.

All the homies need to start taking ICE agents off the streets. If they want to act like terrorists, they can be treated like terrorists. Stuff every ICE cuck in a black site for a month or two and see if the rest keep up with their shit.

During the BLM protests I wondered why I didn't see and real sovereign players in the street combating police when they were causing problems.

Then I started thinking about it... The sovereign people just care about money. The drug dealers, the people already having gang wars etc... they don't care. Growing up with hip-hop etc and hearing all the "fuck the police" was all bullshit ime. It shook me to understand this, because hip-hop and street culture played a role in shaping me, although I was only an observer of "real" street life. The streets, in terms of gang and money making ideology is the same as the mainstream world... They just care about the money. If the police are fucking with an autistic kid and protestors that just keeps the police off their back.

It's all part of the game. The "real" streets are not on the side of peace. They are playing the same game as the legal business men and leaders ...except they are playing it illegally. It's all the same shit from the bottom of the street to the top of the legal ladder. ...and it's all intertwined within the system at this point that it's completely infected.

Luigi's are the only type of people to have faith in if that's the mindset you were thinking about.

There's no loyalty to humanity from a person that plays "the game." Otherwise they wouldn't be participating in that lifestyle.

Sovereigns are selfish. Same as Tea Partiers, Libertarians, whatever… It’s not about actual freedom. It’s about keeping your money and especially making sure nobody else gets any of it outside the sphere of sovereign’s immediate use. No roads, schools, libraries, medicare, FEMA…none of that unless it affects them personally.

Edit: a word

[–] MisanthropiCynic@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Not just ICE All cops

If you work for the government you’re an enemy combatant

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemm.ee 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The first major event in Nazi Germany was the massive deportation of the now villianized Jewish population. Any similarities?

I see him getting a Münchmeyer (wiki) would be more fitting. It's a rare disease where soft tissues become bones and the victim of that curse progressively struggles to move and feel excessive pain when they do and break newly calcinated tissues. A narcissist turning into a moving statue with all the pain it causes is something out of fairytales. Coat him in gold and leave him alone.

[–] Luouth@lemmy.world 11 points 1 day ago

Wow that's a malignant condition befitting a malignant narcissist!

[–] Eldritch@lemmy.world 60 points 1 day ago (1 children)

While I agree. I would still feel bad about cancer for having him.

[–] Luouth@lemmy.world 29 points 1 day ago

That's true, I didn't factor poor cancer's feelings into this. I wouldn't wish this orange twat on my worst enemy

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

He is a cancer

[–] d00phy@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Cancer is too good for him. He needs a novel and aggressive flesh-eating bacteria going to work on his digestive system from the inside.

And incurable ass & mouth cancer.

And a little Ebola.

And some HIV.

Fuck it, throw in some bird flu too.

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

Has to be covid to top him off so we can count him as a stat of "covid with comorbidities".

[–] d00phy@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Actually dying from just COVID would be perfect. He needs to die like Steve Jobs did: of a curable affliction and knowing better than all the “experts” around him.

[–] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 5 points 1 day ago

Except from what I've seen he actually is willing to listen to experts with stuff like that. He doesn't care about being right, that's why he constantly lies and let's himself be proven wrong 50,000 times. He only cares about doing what he believes will benefit him, and listening to doctors to save his life benefits him.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not good enough. I don't think there is anything painful enough for what he's earned

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

I saw a video a few months ago titled something like "Two dominatrix's show no mercy".

It started off kind of sexy.....but eventually I was thinking "this is just turning into actual abuse....."

And i fast forwarded, and it just kept getting worse and worse. His whole body was covered in whip cuts, and bleeding. They electricuted his balls with a car battery.

At one point they used a knife to cut his ear off.

It turned unsexy very quickly. I kept trying to fast forward to get past the bad parts. It only got worse as it went on.

So, maybe we start there as a baseline for trump.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 30 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I hope to wake up to the news he died someday soon

[–] anas@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago

I keep reading headlines with the words “Trump” and “Cancer” and I’m disappointed every single time.

[–] Darukhnarn@feddit.org 1 points 22 hours ago

Maybe we‘re lucky and he does as Stalin did. Can’t imagine that was pleasant.

[–] papercut@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

He needs a visit from Luigi

[–] Wispy2891@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He'll become a martyr for maga in that way.

It's better if one night he gets an aneurysm, throws up and dies suffocating in his puke

[–] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 12 points 1 day ago

Honest question, would that even matter? I feel like someone that is so extremely polarising would have a very low martyrdom effect. His followers are basically already cult like, it's hard to imagine them being more loyal or radical than they already are, and people that aren't his followers probably wouldn't be moved to the right by his death.

Like if he died in the shooting, do you really think things would be worse right now?

[–] Eddy@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago

Then they'll just continue his work. It's not like he came up with any of it. None of this is an original thought. They're just seeing how little push back they get and moving to the next step.

He could die in the most widely documented self inflicted injury at age 100 and I wouldn't put it past people to consider it a conspiracy

[–] BossDj@lemm.ee 68 points 1 day ago (2 children)

He's deporting the ones who have followed the rules

[–] atzanteol@sh.itjust.works 35 points 1 day ago

It was never about "legal status".

[–] tburkhol@lemmy.world 17 points 1 day ago

I'm sure the argument goes that these aren't "real" citizens, but only some gang member's anchor baby.

[–] Snowclone@lemmy.world 54 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They're easier to catch, because they're so weak. From being children and having cancer. Another win for a strong man!

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I know right these “strong men” are always the weakest and most pathetic among us.sad

[–] dryfter@lemm.ee 19 points 1 day ago

This is beyond evil. Like I think even evil people are nice to kids with cancer

[–] baggins@lemmy.ca 47 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago

Yes, exactly.

[–] Ioughttamow@fedia.io 36 points 1 day ago

Very pro-life

[–] Bloomcole@lemm.ee 9 points 1 day ago

Big chance they will get better healthcare than in the US banana republic

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 31 points 1 day ago

Clearly a MAGAt hero this is what they live for. Cruelty is what they love.

[–] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Cancer treatment is affordable everywhere but the US, so maybe a blessing in disguise?

[–] albert180@piefed.social 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's everywhere fucking expensive. Just more so in the US

[–] ArchmageAzor@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

But outside of the US the state foots the bill.

[–] Bipbapbop@lemm.ee 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Not if you have universal healthcare ;)

[–] albert180@piefed.social 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Then it's still expensive, just someone else footing the bill.

It's just an enormous amount of human and technological resources necessary, and the medications are also usually really expensive and to a very high degree still under patent protection, because there is a lot of progress going on

[–] j0ester@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

We’re doing it everyone! We’re making America healthy again. /s

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Seems like a real high priority for the federal government. Ffs.
