Well since I’ve been very vocally liberal and anti-Trump over the past 8 years or so, I suspect I’ll end up dying in a labor camp.
I don’t have the means to get out of the county beforehand or I’d already be out, and I think there’s effectively no country that’s going to be willing to take political refugees from the United States afterwords, so I’m pretty well fucked.
If you honestly think the US under Trump is going to put liberals in labor camps despite watching his whole first term flounder on anything that wasn’t already galvinized by the GOPs platform I think you need to watch less sensationalized news.
Roe v Wade is gone & Abortion Laws are in full swing.
Net Neutrality was killed.
Trump made an attempt at building the border fence, which he claims was because the wall was more of a security issue than a fence they could ‘look’ through.
Trump attempted a Coup.
Trump is not your wishy-washy, wealth-hording politician of yore. He is a power-grabbing fascist with literally no filter. He tries to keep quiet, but he’ll say the quiet parts out loud.
If he had managed to maintain his office, he was basically inches away from gutting public education.
And this was what he was doing to be ‘reserved’. He told his audience to ‘wait’ until he ‘won’ reelection at the end of 2020 in regards to ‘dealing with fauci’. Which implies there are other things he was waiting to do until he had secured his final term.
The only reason his insanity didn’t happen all at once, was because of the initial whiplash between the old mask-on GOP and the new mask-off GOP. They lost out in the latter half of his presidency when the democrats took back the house.
if Trump was certain he could have instated his dictatorship in his first term, he would have done it. The new GOP is not like the 90s GOP. There are certainly those who feign ignorance and dissidence, but when push comes to shove, they tow the line.
Why would so many states have abortion laws ready to go? Why would so many states have complied in the attempt from Trump to steal the election?
If you think the GOP is bluffing, you are not paying attention.
They are absolutely bluffing and if you truly think there’s going to be some ‘dictatorship’, you’re fucking stupid. Our presidents already use their dictatorship power in Executive Orders, but no one seems to bat an eye at those, esp when it’s “Your Guy” that signed the most ever in his first 90 or so days in office.
My favorite thing about this is somehow Biden has little power as president to materially change things without congress, even when he had a slim majority, but Trumps somehow single handedly gonna put democrats in camps. Its sensational bs thats never going to happen but you can use it to pretend you’re being victimized for being a liberal, you’re not.
I think you’re discrediting that there’s a decent chance that Trump is at least going to try to turn the US into a dictatorship. I’m hoping any attempt will fail, but there’s been weirder successes throughout history
And I think people who claim Trump is going to put Americans in camps do nothing but polarize the political landscape more than it already is. If you sincerely believe Trump would have the ability to line up political dissedents up in mass and send them to camps, you’ve reached a level of delusion that is unhealthy. Theres no evidence Republicans are going to gain nearly enough seats for a supermajority, so please explain to me how Trump sends democrats to camps. It’s a sensational divisive claim that does nothing but worsen an already shit electoral climate. Its the same level of crazy as claiming Bidens going to take away your guns. Even if thats what he said he wanted, he lacks any way to do so.
The only people actually goin to camps are immigrants and last I checked those are still open and functioning.
My concerns are generally not Trump as a person, but rather that his handlers are more organized and prepared. As an individual I think DeSantis is much more concerning, as far as actually implemented policy that is in effect and damaging today, and he’s also going to be around for a long time.
I don’t think liberals are going to labor camps any time soon, but life could be much more difficult for many marginalized groups as conservatives seek out the new boogyman now that abortion doesn’t work as well.
don’t worry too much buddy, the worst that can happen is your political view gets relentlessly strawmanned, treated as an attack on freedom, and most of the internet will find it acceptable to openly mock, ridicule, and threaten you for your beliefs and overexaggerate the candidate most closely associated with your point of view (whether true or not) as an unstable hateful fascist dictator, as well as adopting the most dramatic persecution complex possible, whining that their election will result in your shunning and death.
I had been scrolling through this thread, wondering when I was going to find the dumbest possible post, and I’m thankful that I can stop reading now that I’ve found it.

He and the GOP have been shouting their intention to go full dictatorship for months now.
It’s not sensationalized if its from the horse’s mouth.
No they haven’t liar
