  Yes. That's how they got the Dixie Chicks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chicks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Chicks

  I don't know why it's downvoted. It has come to this America - you better acknowledge it quickly. It may be hard, as half of VC world and tech titans are complicit. But that's the reality today. It's no wonder why travel from EU to US is collapsing. I'm not going to US anytime soon neither. And yes, Trump is dumb. He's also very dangerous.

It is hard to take people at their word when it clashes with our understanding of reality or would create a call to action or make inaction unexcusable. We should take this administration at their word. Trump said: "I need the kind of generals that Hitler had." https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-said-hitler-did-some-good-things-and-wanted-generals-like-the-nazis-former-chief-of-staff-kelly-claims https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/trump-said-hitler-did-... https://www.npr.org/2024/10/23/nx-s1-5161598/i-need-the-kind-of-generals-that-hitler-had-the-reporting-behind-trumps-comment https://www.npr.org/2024/10/23/nx-s1-5161598/i-need-the-kind...

How soon before criticizing Trump, his allies, and his backers is classified as preaching hate against America?

  That is exactly what they mean already. Disobedience towards their authority is hate. It's already in their language. Trump Derangement Syndrome encodes exactly this idea. The idea reverses victim and abuser. Those victimized by his policies are seen as people with an irrational hatred making them act out rather than as people with a justified disagreement.

It is not completely clear whether US Citizens who "preach hate for America" are to be deported. One assumes that would not be the case, but once this is established for anyone, progressively enlarging scope is much easier.
