Literally just going door to door and arresting anyone protesting with long guns.

    I would be shocked if we make it a week before ICE agents start getting shot and killed. Maybe 2/3s of the people in Minnesota subreddits are talking about getting guns and castle doctrine, combined with threats that would get removed from here for fedposting, as in literally discussing tactics on how to kill people wearing body armor. I think Minnesota related subreddits were probably better than the median subreddit before this, but seeing the average redditor turn into a r/trueanon poster in the span of a week has been wild.

      I will never forget seeing someone taking out their pistol and firing at speeding pigmobiles on Day 3 of the George Floyd uprising on woke.net. This was how close people were towards merking pigs before Democrats completely destroyed that righteous energy. But unlike the George Floyd uprising, the Democrats aren’t there to peddle their counterinsurgent protest policeTM bullshit. There’s no “vote to get rid of Drumpf” distraction this time. This is just the beginning of Year 2 in Trump’s second term with 2 more years to go. But just like how we are stuck with Trump, Trump is stuck with us.

        And a lot of Americans think that he won’t leave office at the end of that either, and will continue to stay in power unless he is stopped by force.

      The administration would be ecstatic. It’s what they want. They want to go on tv and say radical leftists are killing federal officers.

      They are incapable of solving problems. They can only create them and claim to be the victim.

      Edit: chill everyone. I’m just pointing out a fact. I’m not telling anyone what to do. In fact, I strongly encourage resistance.

      2nd edit: y’all should stop making assumptions. But if you must make assumptions, probably don’t be a dick about it.

      I played my cards wrong and took too long to be able to make it to China. Another year or two and I might have been able to make it out, oh well.

    anyone also has the impression this is going way too quick?

    they are not even getting people used to it, just straight up to the gestapo snatching bystanders off the streets.
