    Please put an NSFW tag on that image, it can get you in trouble if you accidentally show it in public in many countries, for good reason.

    Literally the defining symbol for the term ‘hate symbol’.

    Hey, what’s a hate symbol? Oh, you know, like a swatztika. Ohh, right of course, how could I be so fucking dumb? Jesus CHRIST.

      I actually don’t think Trump is behind this one. hear me out:

      there are two factions emerging within MAGA. the Evangelicals and MAGA-leaning neocons are heavily Zionist, so there’s no way they’d let this happen. the second faction are the alt-right/groypers/white nationalists, who simp for Nick Fuentes and Laura Loomer. Gen Z belongs overwhelmingly to this second camp, as illustrated by the Young Republicans discord leak.

      Trump himself has no political views other than his own power and personal vengeance, but I’d still put him closer to the first camp since he’s a Boomer, and he’s in Bibi’s pocket. so I think whoever pushed for this is probably part of the same cabal that posts Nazi dogwhistles on DHS’s Twitter - part of the second camp.

      and that second camp will become the future of the Republican party, unfortunately.

    Following the double negative rule: Anti Anti Fascists leaves you with

    The USA is dropping the mask for all the world to see.

        AND STILL PEOPLE ARE ACTING LIKE EVERYTHING IS NORMAL!

        Nope, we’rs not. But I, like many people, am in a marginalized/bum-fuck town. So, my opinion doesn’t matter until the polls open. We voted against this evil, and we will again. But, our government wants to embrace the evil.

        We can see it wants to. We don’t want it to. But, most of us don’t matter to the government. We’re not big-dollar donors, so our politicians will ignore us. They’ve minimalized most people so all that we can do is vote against it.

        But, with where the Overton window is, we have one party running with regular evil while the other suggests a diet version of evil.

        I AT LEAST WANT THIS SHIT TAKEN SERIOUSLY ENOUGH THAT CANADIANS STOP FUCKING GOING TO THE STATES

        With how dried up tourism is, it would seem like they’re already doing it. Yet, the government is still going down this path. So, it’s not that big of an impact.

          You say that, but the US is full of people still just going about their business. The country is operating fairly normally, all things considered, and the best you’ve got are sanctioned protests that are great for showing that people don’t love the situation but aren’t actually doing anything that couldn’t be responded to with an AI video of king Trump shit bombing everyone. Oh, and a Californian conservative who makes memes mocking Trump but is himself pretty shit.

          Maybe for a nation of cowards this is action, but really it’s just sad. You’re taking it lying down, and half of you are even fighting to make sure that ya’ll get completely fucked.

            Because we aren’t important enough for politicians to pay attention to. Our calls just go straight into an answering machine that gets ignored because we’re not bug-dollar donors like Musk. Musk probably has a direct line.

            the best you’ve got are sanctioned protests that are great for showing that people don’t love the situation but aren’t actually doing anything that couldn’t be responded to with an AI video of king Trump shit bombing everyone.

            Yeah. We are in poverty. We have had stagnant wages for like 40 years, but rampent inflation. This is the second gilded age like it was in the 20s and earlier. The rich have everything and direct lines to politicians, and the poor need 3 gig jobs and a regular job just to afford rent and food. In a work heap like this, we need foreknowledge to schedule our peotests around.

            Maybe for a nation of cowards this is action, but really it’s just sad. You’re taking it lying down, and half of you are even fighting to make sure that ya’ll get completely fucked.

            Again, you’re conflating poverty and desperation in a backdrop of political corruption as aquiesence.

              Right?

              Like, the best thing a member of a loathed and marginalized community can do is to have an escape plan. They’re foaming at the mouth with rage and drooling at the opportunity for a hated group to put up an ounce of resistance so they can round them up for the camps. What kind of opposition can one transgender person in a one bedroom at night put up against an armed SWAT team?

              It’ll be someone else’s job to resist with an organized force.

        It would be nice if Canadians would also stop voting for politicians who lead Canada in the same direction as the USA. We need to turn left, not right.

          Well you you hit rock bottom at America level we’ll have an ice cold beer ready for you and you can pull up a chair. I know you dont love us right now but in a weird twist Americans are still big fans of Canada.

          I think I read that American approval of Canadians is 94% while simultaneously two thirds of Canadians not only dont trust the US but feel like they can never trust it again.

          We can’t stop voting for conservatives to stop the Conservatives™ from getting power. We’re dumb as hell for that.

        Honestly, I understand why my parents aren’t even panicking, the country we lived in before coming to the US, also had random arbitary policy changes, so… this just feels normal to them, authoritarianism is normal to them.

    Combine this policy with declaring anti-fascists as terrorists, and I think a pattern is emerging here.
