OK then lets make a HITLER bill to deport fascists and racial supremacists.

iamthetot@piefed.ca · 84 pts · 123d (5 replies)

Name it the TRUMP bill and they'll pass it just because.

SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 35 pts · 123d (4 replies)

Treating Really Undesirable Motherfuckers Poorly ACT. The aim of the bill is to mandate that citizens continually shout at fascists when they appear in public. This also calls on chefs and cooks to incorporate jizz into each dish they prepare for a fascist. Hotels would be required to kick the fascists out somewhere between 2-3am each night.

Sequentialsilence@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 122d

We will make allowances for female chefs or chefs who can’t produce jizz in the moment, by allowing them to simply spit into the dish.

that's what you needed to do before you let fascists take the reigns.

it's still crazy to me that Biden and every democrat called him a fascist but did nothing to stop fascism and when he won they sat down with him and shook hands and gave the keys to the entire system to a fascist.

like, ok. this is what you get. if you don't stop them, they'll stop you.

Mycatiskai@lemmy.ca · 16 pts · 123d (4 replies)

I know they designed a great diagonal blade that made the blade go through in one go rather than the original designs that had to go a few times before they got through the neck.

I think they should use the original blade designs. It would make for a much better waiting game for those in line to go, they get to guess how many drops it will take before their turn. It's not that I want to be cruel, I just want them to really think about the question "should I have paid them enough to live?"

Also, due process got thrown out the window long ago. Seems to me that it’s just a matter of time until the rest of the constitution is just a decoration.

cecilkorik@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 122d (1 reply)

Yes. During the rise of Hitler, Jewish newspapers stubbornly insisted not to worry, that he couldn't do all the horrible things he said he was going to do because of "the constitution". It turns out a piece of paper with words written on it doesn't protect you from someone who doesn't value it, no matter how much you might value it.

chaosCruiser@futurology.today · 4 pts · 122d

Just because something is illegal doesn’t mean it can’t happen. When laws are no longer enforced, they lose their value, and the old system collapses. If you don’t see any value in the new system, it’s time to do something about it.

BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 122d

All this copaganda has been super effective. Really started laying it on thick to justify the patriot act.

I think it gets into the back of people's minds and they don't react in their best interests in high stress situations.

Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world · 18 pts · 123d (1 reply)

Ya know.....it feels like the Dodgers are the west coast Yankees. Just in terms of raw athletic talent. Like they have a monopoly on good players. I mean, they even originated from NY.

But then you read that Dodgers told ICE to go fuck themselves, and then hosted a game raising charity money for local families torn apart by ICE, and I begin to have a LOT more leeway against them.

It's really hard to hate the Dodgers when they are helping so many people.

I'll still be a Guardians fan, but I'll still tip my cap to you.

And as always, fuck the Yankees.

PunkRockSportsFan@fanaticus.social · 3 pts · 123d

It’s real easy for “them” to label people who care about their neighbors as anti American socialists.

Its hard to refute the origins of socialism and communism in biblical teachings:

James 5:1

Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming on you. 2 Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days. 4 Look! The wages you failed to pay the workers who mowed your fields are crying out against you. The cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord Almighty. 5 You have lived on earth in luxury and self-indulgence. You have fattened yourselves in the day of slaughter.

The republicans seem emboldened to piss on the constitution.

Flagrant display of a disregard or lack of knowledge of the basic rules and laws that define our government operation like this should carry the penalty of immediate suspension and removal. If you're going to propose something this obviously petty and stupid, you shouldn't be in a position of power.

Also, they need to stop using "deport." The correct term is "exile." Deportation refers to a foreigner being expelled from a country. Exile is the removal of a citizen from their home country. See also: Napoleon

There's also outlawry. Just render a person entirely unprotected by the laws of society. It's tantamount to murder, but morally muddier.

But of course neither is politically feasible, for once you create a means to dispose of people who tick some box, your enemies will find some way to tick that box for you.

5ibelius9insterberg@feddit.org · 23 pts · 123d

Since you don’t seem to understand what I‘m talking about: FASCIST LOVE DRACONIC PUNISHMENTS BECAUSE IT GETS A SOCIETY USED TO VIOLENCE AND BRUTALITY. They really love this because people slowly switch from: „Killing is wrong“ to „Killing a person for crime xy is probably beneficial to our society“ and then to: „If this person is killed, they probably did something to deserve this.“ (Which is something you can read everytime someone suffers from police violence.)

Don’t get me wrong: sexual encounters with people not able to (or below the age of) consent. Should have consequences, but those consequences can’t be violent. A functioning justice system should prevent (further) harm, not execute your personal want for revenge.
