Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

Disgusting. If they do this, we are actually living in a fascist state. Stripping citizenship from your political opponents? This is insane.
We better start preparing for a stronger resistance now while we still can.
This method would not only work in the US, but anywhere in the world.
Union Suggestions:
If we put in the work, we can resist this and we can win. Look at how effective these methods were when used in Chile in 2019.. If we completely reject the political system and rebel on a mass scale, there is NOTHING they can do to stop us.
I might be a downer but T still has many supporters/apologists. I believe that things will start to change only when those people become vocal against him. Until that happens resistors will start populating the camps next to the “illegals”.
A lack of resistance now will only guarantee a quick decent into Russian style authoritarianism. We resist now, or wait years or potentially decades for it to crumble and break.
The 50501 resistance movements have already shown us that there are millions who will openly resist. The military parade showed hundreds of slouched out of step soldiers, who would only do so if they disapproved. Trump only barely won the election.
Does he have supporters still? Of course, a wide amount of brainwashed people are were caught in that trap, and it will take a great deal of hardship for them to come out of that cult.
But just as many are not. Just as many are awake to what is happening. It may decent into civil war, and I think it'd prudent to be ready for that possibility, but hopefully it won't come to that.
But don't wait for a mass movement to make it safe for you to stand up, or you may never stand up.
