Isn’t this some real nazi fascist like tactics? Are they just testing the waters?
If they could actually get the few progressives we have in prison on BS charges, I think they would. And their supporters would cheer.

No, this is exactly what they’re trying to do. So far it’s worked with media outlets, law firms, and colleges. They keep their own ranks in line via either threats of a primary challenge backed by Musk, or outright death threats from Trump’s followers. They are experimenting with disappearing people to foreign countries, and Trump has already openly threatened to ship US protesters there.
I mean, really all they need to do is arrest her on some bullshit charge, drag her into a black van and put her on a plane to El Salvador. Who’s going to know about it, or do anything about it? It’d be a chilling message to all their enemies.
They’d be bragging about it on the news in order to promote the chilling effect. The question at that point would be if it caused an armed reaction. They want to start a civil war because they think they will win.
If they pulled something like this, do you think people would finally get into action?
It really feels like they’re testing the waters before going full-on Nazi and dragging their political opponents off the street.
The way things are going I expect the first attack along these lines on an opposition politician within a month.
