This would be a good time to read it tbh

No matter how many people voted for him they did not vote to have their democracy replaced with an autocracy. Once it is clear that is what you have, then you have had a coup and the government is illegitimate.

Here in Norway we were literally invaded, the line between before and after was clear. For the US it will not be as clear. The voters did give this government a wide and devastating mandate, but that mandate did not include creating a dictatorship. At some point that line might be crossed. He keeps on “joking” that he will. Because apparently these people think this is funny.

There is a reason why the US always struggled with who was a “freedom fighter” and who was a “terrorist”, it all comes down to who you think is the legitimate government. And that isn’t always clear. And tbh might also change over time. But one thing is for sure to me: under fascism, punching a Nazi is patriotic.

I hate this.
They are putting a probable Russian asset to lead the US intelligence community, a child sex trafficker to lead the justice department and an antivaxer in charge of healthcare. Y’all. None of this is normal.

One part of my brain says I’m paranoid, the other listens to a member of the senate saying that several top level democrats are concerned about their physical safety. And Elon is negotiating with Iran.

@Patricia I know people roll their eyes at the analogy but people literally wrote opinion pieces in newspapers about how Hitler wasn't really serious about the antisemitism, it was just to rile up his base.
