Criminalizing the opposition is literally the first page in the fascism handbook.
There are no real anarchist anymore.
we are at war
Nazi vibes.
Just nazi no vibes
Secular does not mean what most of these assholes think it means, by the way. Way too many act like it’s a synonym for “atheist”.
Just because a person or an org has not chosen to wear their chosen lifestyle on their sleeve does not make it the equivalent atheist.
Most of life is “secular”, FFS.
What the conservatives do the English language is as infuriating as so many other things they do. Often it starts with their perversion of terms and phrases.

well put.
Carlin said: By and large, language is a tool for concealing the truth.
They know what it means, they are leaving room for violent christian political groups. They have already declared violent Islamic organizations as evil so by saying “secular” they literally mean any group that does not declare themselves as christian.
Sounds unconstitutional. He’s promising to persecute people for their protected first amendment activities.
Thanks to the supreme court it doesn’t matter though, as nationwide injunctions are forbidden.
There are legit people who think that some pieces of paper can stop an authorian takeover.

I didn’t vote because blah blah blah
Get ready for the updated Ai powered House Un-American Committee. Now with more fascism!

So start a religion that is aggressively pro-trans? Even better if you appear to be Christian?
The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
We’re not perfect, but we’re trying; we have openly Queer (including trans clergy) and have re-written our canon on marriage to include same-sex marriage. I’m a priest in this church. Never imagined that the Trans flag that is hanging on my wall in my office (given to me by a fellow demonstrator at a No Kings protest last year) would possibly land me in jail some day.
But seriously, at this point it is the duty of any Christian, if they truly believe in Jesus, to stand with Trans folks and proclaim anti-fascism. Because this is where Jesus would be standing.
I was raised episcopal as a kid. Episcopalian on my mom’s side, Catholic on my dad’s. This was in the 1970s and early 80s. I remember our church would invite this particular female pastor to give a guest sermon on a regular basis. And in that era it was radical for a woman to be a minister.
once had a friend describe Episcopalians as: A lot like Catholics, but with logic and sense instead of dogma and rapists.
So, does this mean Trump is officially declaring the US a fascist state?
I’m comfortable reading it like this.
I wouldn’t say I’m comfortable, exactly. I agree it is the proper reading-between-the-lines, and it’s very awkward. Actually, down right terrifying.
well… time to respond accordingly I guess
Yep. Any time now, would be great.
We need to be doing everything legally possible right now to get him the fuck out. That’s what I’ll say.
They’re going to rise up for sure after the mid-terms are stolen, and then after the next general is stolen, and then…
He already did that a while ago. NSPM-7 is nothing new, neither is repeatedly ignoring court orders, trying to overthrow the 2020 election, or personally enriching himself to the tune of billions of dollars using the power of the government he runs.
Oh no! Radical pro-transgenders want to trans their genders, please save me from the genders transing
Question: Where are the victims of these secular political groups and radical transgenders? To compare them to 9-11 mass murderers seems kinda wonky to me. Drug cartels also don’t seem as bad, somebody has to get me drugs.
In truth? The “victims” they are protecting, are the proud boys, the 3 % ers, patriot front, etc. They are targeting the groups that have fought back against their aspiring paramilitaries they want to use to target opponents and critics.
Tyrants don’t come to power by mandating submission. They come to power by criminalizing dissent.
Same shit, different nomenclature.
Fuck that fascist
Nobody young enough for that would spell ‘nomenclature’ properly.
And by having God on their side
Was that Jill Stein vote worth it?
I think the real question is whether Hilary should have given that money to back him in 2016
Authoritarianism is an admission of abject weakness.
White supremacists are the weakest and most brittle snowflakes.
