They're really pulling out all the stops to go after people for this one huh. It's the new Jan 6

It's the new Jan 6

Except that Jan 6 was both terrorism and an attempt to overthrow the American democracy.

Whereas protesting against Israel's massacre in Gaza have been, (in 96% of cases), peaceful speech, IMO, also valid.

The USA are not morphing into some oppressive totalitarian shithole, naaah.

IFAIC we've already morphed. What's left is media propaganda work to brainwash the political livestock into demanding it.

As Trumpism maintains the dominant position of republicans, yeah, we're seeing a lot of attempts to limit democratic and human rights from that side.

Nobody gives a shit about freedom of speech anymore. We need to shitcan anyone supporting this thing.

People used to quip that the government controlled the media. I think at this point, it’s the opposite. Media controls the government, and we know who controls the media.

If you asked someone to describe what would take place in a country where it was being controlled behind the scenes by hostile outsiders who hate its citizens, they would come up with something pretty close to what we are seeing today. Including criminalization of criticizing said hostile outsiders.

Yes.

And it's the media, but not just the media, of course.

It's control of all of what is sometimes termed 'The Commanding Heights'.

The situation that follows is a relationship, between certain industries (media, banks, etc.) and government, which looks like a kind of South/Central American situation:

A small group of greed-driven financial/business interests collude with a (sold-out/corrupt) government to help each other exploit the majority of citizens.

Hell. When the Jewish and their Zionist evangelical Golem horde go after you, they go after you hard.

Marshal and Blackburn are embarrassments.

Let's put congress on a no fly list.

This is one of the dumbest things I've ever heard of.

To say what I actually think about this would be a fedpost, but just keep in mind that I think it in the strongest possible way, and 100% unironically.

A dangerous precedent here that I very much am against. This "No Fly" should only be used when a person is put on trial for charges and then found guilty but those same charges have to pertain to air travel. The idea that government could just arbitrarily place anyone they dislike on a No Fly list is a VERY dangerous idea for what's next? Have the ATF place that person on a Prohibited Possessor list? Cut them off from their rightful Medicaid or SSA payments? Kick them out of government sponsored housing? Send notice of cancel of a persons drivers license? Revoke professional licensees? Place a block on their bank accounts like Nation of Canada did of the "Truckers Protest" under ZERO lawful authority? Where does the governments power to punish end and to what limits? History has proven times without count that when government believes it can just do whatever it wants then cruel subjugation of its people comes next. Cattle cars to an internment camp at the pointy end of a rifle can come next if the government believes it can just do whatever it wants with no legal trial and convictions at all.
