I can't believe people still have faith in fair elections. He tried to cheat his first win. He refused to leave after his loss to Biden and tried to overthrow the government. Then he cheated again last year.

And for some reason you think the midterms will be open and fair?! That he'll even hold them at all? Or will allow them to be fair without cheating or intimidation? Or will actually obey the results? He doesn't listen to Congress now! Why would he start if the Dems won?!

And if by some miracle all of that worked out you think the Dems are going to start fighting back now? This isn't a political fight. It's a class fight and most of the Dems are in the owner class. That's why they go along with all this.

Stop relying on the next election. You don't vote your way out of fascism. Totalitarian leaders do not value elections. He will not leave or give up power.

They need to protest. REALLY protest. General strikes, obstruction, shut down everything. You can't walk around with a sign on a weekend once a month when it's nice outside and expect a wannabe dictator will back down. They are spendinrg every minute of every day stripping away your democracy and you have to fight back with the same intensity.

Look at Nepal. France. Italy. They didn't ask their government to listen. They MADE them. It's YOUR country! Fight for it!

Yeah Carney pulled out the win on anti-Trump sentiment but since then he's put his elbows down. Way down.

Our Liberals are as weak as the Democrats and we're all going to pay for it.

That's what you get on a Nazi social media site.

So Americans, you ready to put a stop to this yet?

General strike now. Shut it down. Organize, disrupt, disobey.

That's amazing that he refers to children being raped over and over again in that clip, and then says Trump will be elected to fix it.

He claimed Donald Trump, who is in the Epstein Files, will stop children being raped.

How many fascist leaders have been brought down by signs and chants from the sidewalk?

Interesting suggestion when we're talking about human rights, because collective punishment is against the Geneva Convention.

Nicely said, but you forgot rapist, conman, pants-shitter.

I condone any and all violence needed to escape masked men trying to kidnap you in the back of a van.

Most of us are, but the Canadian government still isn't. Here's the travel advisory page where they categorize it as "green" risk and say

United States - Take normal security precautions

Back in July the CBC reported:

Global Affairs Canada said it's aware of roughly 55 Canadians in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, though it said that the numbers can fluctuate.

In the US it's racism the whole way down.
