Oh gosh, you think? Damn, I wish we had a historical blueprint somewhere that could show us how a modern autocratic regime would go about eliminating their “unwanteds”.
Oh hey turns out we have one, but no one ever considered it could happen in the US because Americans are super special snowflakes who can’t do wrong. And according to that one, Democrats will actually be the first ones in camps. In fact it doesn’t matter if you’re not white or gay or whatever. As long as you support the regime, you will be safe under Trump, but not necessarily his successor.
Step 1 is ALWAYS coming after regime-critics first. Ethnonationalist concerns are second.
That’s the funny thing: you won’t even be safe if you support the regime. Fascism is a constant battle for power on every level and things can turn sour for anyone if they just happen to be on the wrong side even once.
This is exactly why I cannot fathom how some people are choosing to be apathetic about what’s happening to their neighbors. You see that in your neighborhood and you think you have anything to offer that will satisfy the hunger of capitalists turned fascists? Our lives are nothing more to them than another resource to exploit and bleed dry.
No, according to that blueprint leftists and progressives will be the first ones in camps. Democrats are controlled opposition and are, in fact, beneficial to the regime. I mean why the heck would they go after a Schumer when they have Bernies to worry about?
Well true, the “far left” will be first, then the “moderate left”, then “people in our own midst who fail the purity test”. I’ve used the term Democrat as an umbrella.
