    because USSS is more concerned with doing their job than doing krasnov’s bidding, so i’m guessing he’s trying to phase out their security detail. just speculation, but i’m betting there have been times he’s said “rough them up” and they’ve said “fuck you no”

        the authoritarian/whatever they’ve been calling it through the centuries i specialize in early 1800s/fascist playbook has been the same every time. i’m used to studying the religious rebellions so i look for the anabaptist/mormon/heaven’s gate/people’s temple/moonie/rajneeshee similarities (and dear gods are there a lot. dear gods that’s a lot of cults to think up off the top of my head) so like, i’m charlie kelly over here with his cork board

            so like, all of the creative people over here are on the other side. if our side had wanted a fascism it would have at least had drag queens and mustache motorcycle parades with rainbow streamers and shit. patrols run by shriners driving around with their fezzes in the gokarts and shit, looking for i dont know, illegal horses and poor dental hygiene, children with cancer who need portation to the hospital to get their cancer treated. i’m really not very good at fascism.
