    Seriously read this one people. The AutoTLDR bot did not capture the gravity of what’s being said. This is undeniable, open authoritarianism and they’re explicitly saying who is on the kill list

      1933 started the same. Unfortunately, the U.S. has nukes…I find it even more depressing that the future of everything lies in the hands of some general’s simply not following the launch order. (And that scenario isn’t as far fetched as I’d like it to be)

        Yes, first was some language, then some language and acting organized , and finally Hitler laid it all open exactly what he was going to have Germany do. This has all the marking of the same path.

      TBH, I’m not going to, but only because it’s probably as bad as every other explicitly authoritarian thing he’s said lately, and it’s not going to change my vote.

      We all can already see Trump is going full authoritarian for this run, and I’m not interested in giving The Guardian traffic to encourage them to keep producing ragebait. The only news I want to read about him is the one saying he’s died.

        He’s more dangerous dead than alive before being processed. The cult will just become stronger. Venezuela is still suffering the consequences of Chavez being dead. Chavez said as much: “I am more dangerous dead than alive.” And he was right.

        “Trump checking in for prison” is the headline I want to read in my lifetime.

        If he dies of natural causes a few years later (maybe because of a serious case of bitterness), that’s just the cherry on top.

        Also, Trump just wants to play Hitler because he thinks that’s what’s going to help him win. It won’t. If Trump was as strong as the media claims: (1) He would have won a reelection, or (2) His toy coup would have succeeded.
