The promise made was that they were going after "bad people", e.g., murderers, rapists, etc. I don't think many people have a problem with that.
But that's not who they're going after, it's everybody, with a focus on ethnic cleansing. It is no longer hyperbole to compare what's happening now to Germany in the 1930's.
- cdrnsf 9mo agoAgreed. They've made it quite clear that they intend to label any dissent or protest as terrorism and use force to suppress it. I don't see how the situation will improve. Perhaps if the 3.5% rule holds true https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3.5%25_rule https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3.5%25_rule
- dpedu 9mo agoThe promise that was made was to go after the type of people you described - first. Not to stop after them. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgrnn8zxdego https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cgrnn8zxdego
- SilverElfin 9mo ago> But that's not who they're going after, it's everybody, with a focus on ethnic cleansing. This is not yet something most Americans have caught onto. The DHS made a tweet fantasizing about deporting 100 million Americans (https://www.huffpost.com/entry/dhs-100-million-deportations-post_n_6955e15ee4b0ed8017e05656 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/dhs-100-million-deportations-...) - which is roughly what deporting all non white people would look like. And Elon Musk posts white supremacist content daily - and I mean this literally. For example he called for “white solidarity” (https://people.com/elon-musk-shares-startling-post-endorsing-white-solidarity-11881885 https://people.com/elon-musk-shares-startling-post-endorsing...) and has also repeatedly called for remigration which is literally defined as “ethnic cleansing” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigration https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigration).
