It’s interesting that this regime is already behaving as if the dictatorship it clearly aspires to has already been established. They obviously feel quite confident about their cause.
Well, they can afford to be, because it doesn’t look as if they have anything to fear in the way of consequences. Every day, I read alarming reports about abuse of power, open corruption, systematic racism, absurd policies that run counter to the interests of US citizens, blatant disregard for the law, and the involvement of high-ranking government officials in prostitution and pedophilia. But I never read anything that would suggest that those responsible are being held accountable.
I therefore assume that the establishment of a dictatorship à la Russia is already so far advanced that it won’t be prevented - and by that I mean a transformation of the plutocracy that has long been the norm in the US into an unvarnished autocracy, including all the associated methods of repression, in other words, the transformation of the US into a full-blown dictatorship.

Unitary Executive Theory has been on the table since Nixon. To say “we’re not already living in a dictatorship”, you really need to squeeze your eyes shut, stay perfectly in your lane, and not ask why we have the largest prison population on earth.

Well, obviously, the Russians are naturally predisposed to being ruled with an iron fist, because they have bad genes. Once the American people have been cleansed of the social rot, we’re going to see the kind of Liberty and Freedom that our Founding Fathers could only dream of.
Or, at least, that’s what Steven Miller and Steve Bannon and the last half dozen Joe Rogan guests have told me.
With this comment, you are simply stating that you are incapable of engaging in rational discussion.
Not op but lol, wut?
Lemmy is really full of angry people recently who are projecting their problems onto others. It’s very odd.
Fake it til you make it.
If they see no consequences to their actions, it only makes them bolder to go more extreme.
These are the consequences, the majority of Americans want this.
The majority of Americans who bothered to show up want this. A plurality decided they didn’t care either way and decided they’d rather just stay home.
