Horrible advice

Telling people to essentially 'find a comfortable bubble and stay in it' at the same time the government is busy trying to criminalize:

anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, and anti-Christianity; support for the overthrow of the United States Government; extremism on migration, race, and gender; and hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on family, religion, and morality -[from Trump's recent Presidential Security Memorandum]

...is a recipe for violent authoritarianism the likes of which most people can't even imagine. Anyone the establishment considers a threat or even merely inconvenient could easily be dropped into one of those over-broad and intentionally vague categories.

Buckle up; the ride's only going to get more bumpy from here.

Just more blatant.
Y'all didn't want to talk about it when Biden tried to institute a 'Ministry of Truth' or equated anti-zionism with anti-semitism and you seem oblivious to the fact that it was Obama who suspended habeas corpus, etc.

This isn't a republican/democrat thing.
It never has been.

It's been a joint effort to push this country ever further toward authoritarianism with each successive administration building on the momentum created by previous administrations and if you can't at the very least acknowledge that instead of stumbling around in your "Orange Man Bad!" rut then we have nothing to discuss.
