The new domestic terrorism paradigm has already paved the way for this

Indeed. And they are pushing that TRUMP SUPPORTERS, milquetoast psuedo-populists at best, are "neo-nazis", "fascists", and every other buzzword they can think of, and suggesting they be drone striked and arrested. If that's what they want for moderate NeoCons, imagine what they'd want happening to people like us.

Honestly they see wignats, neocons, lolberts, even anti trans feminists as the same. All are "neo-nazis" because they challenge the woke status quo. The exact degree doesn't really matter to them. That's why you see about the same amount of alarm for MAGAts on parler and siegeposters on telegram.

Yeah, I've sort of noticed that and thought about it while making the post, but ultimately didn't include it. It's advantageous for them to group anyone that transgresses even slightly into the out-group, or into the periphery thereof. Look at how even radical feminists and the like who have made minor transgressions in the past are made to flagellate themselves publicly (no, not literally, but by making horrendous preachy apologies and shit) on social media, and they see it as a good thing and completely correct. It's astounding.

Well the more reprisals against innocent people the more radicalized people will get.

Indeed. It's sad that it is that way, but I'm afraid that's simply the way it will be.
