The normalization of political violence, the dehumanization of the 'enemy,' and the use of stochastic terror. While these may sound like dystopian concepts from a sci-fi film, they are, unfortunately, the chilling reality of today's political landscape. Strap in, because The Big Picture is delving deep into these unsettling tactics shaping our world. https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-threats-violence-maga-2024

@[email protected] I get the feeling that you have lived though this cycle before, and are not looking forward to doing it again.
I concur.

voting blue in these times is not voting for a person - it's voting for a landscape where freedom can persevere. #StrongerTogether

russian agent Trump will rip the United States apart. A military coup will be all that's left to save the U.S.

@[email protected] There's no going back to pre-Trump politics. We're stuck with this paradigm in which decent people are shouted out of the political sphere through threats and intimidation.

@[email protected] the world will need commentators like them. So long as they do not provoke precisely the martyrs support the terrible people are supporting.

As usual, Trump is openly saying what he will do, in an attempt to immunize himself from liability for doing it. Accusing others of committing outrages and crimes is another way of doing that, and his admission that he's done what he accuses others of doing. Both are attempts to normalize his foul conduct.

If anything, Trump understates the violence, discrimination, and retribution he has or will foment or engage in.

@[email protected] They only sound like dystopian concepts from fiction to people who haven't been paying attention. The Right has been doing this for years.

Trump is useless.

Trump supporters are responsible for all the terror of the time we live in.

@[email protected] only dingbat society which is overwhelmingly significantly less intelligent than average supports deeply authoritarian QAnon-sensed ex presidents or those of similar mindsets.

@[email protected] The rest of the world is looking on in disbelief and is totally perplex. The GOP, the party that was first in abolishing slavery, to then more or less giving up on that noble goal and leaving it to the Democrats, and now being led by the nose by Mr. Trump like a cow that doesn't know any better!
Really!

How stupid do you have to be to idolize a top secret stealing and selling, diaper wearing, adderall addicted nincompoop sociopathic pathological liar with a history of fraud and bankruptcies indicted for 91 felonies despite a court system designed to protect the rich and powerful so shallow he won’t go anywhere without bronzer and his poorly fitting bacteria infested toupee.

@[email protected] I think their toupee master must have quit - that's why they're wearing caps now

@[email protected] The administrations of Donald Trump and Ted Bundy would have been roughly identical.
