And with a minimum of three more years of this, they will eventually get what they want. There is no way that this administration ends without the US military acting against domestic Americans, at some point. It is going to happen.
As much as I'm tempted to play the accellerationist and demand that we give them what they're asking for, I know that we can't rip off the bandaid like that. Americans are not yet mentally prepared to take up arms against their government. The government will strike first, after they exhaust all attempts to get the people to make the first move. Trump needs martial law or some equivalent immunity before his time in the Oval Office is up.
They already have. They executed a woman on the streets because she saw too much, or they thought she did. She didn't do anything wrong, but they decided that she needed to die rather than be allowed to leave peacefully, as she was trying to do. She was a white woman, not an immigrant. (She was also gay, but they probably didn't know that at the time.) And they still executed her right then and there on the spot.
Side note: is your avatar the playable character from Noita?
Yeah lol, I made the Noita Emotes mod and it's from that (Fortnite dance).
