Not quite a "headfake" but indeed it is all about testing our response. This is called Lean Fascism: http://blog.koehntopp.info/index.php/255-lean-fascism/ http://blog.koehntopp.info/index.php/255-lean-fascism/ - "Political positions are no longer backed by theory and no longer subject to political discourse and societal control. They are simply being implemented, sometimes even purposefully badly crafted, in order to measure societal reaction"
- devoply 10y agoThis has been going on in the US for a very long time. This is nothing new. Nothing Trump is doing is new or that different. It's just when the policies are applied State side people are like oh my God. When the policies are applied to other people or other countries, it's like oh yeah business as usual. George W. Bush destroyed at least one stable country, like completely destroyed it, and ruined the relatively stable lives of millions of people all in the name of saving them from a bad dictator. Obama killed scores of innocent people. But that's business as usual. It was a matter of time until your chickens come home to roost. And it this point there is little that can be done about what Trump's going to do. Too little, too late as were. If people were more passionate before about actually defending human rights of all people, then maybe we would not be here.
