Trump administration insiders are furious over reporting that the U.S. Coast Guard, which is part of the Department of Homeland Security, will no longer classify the swastika as a symbol of "hate."According to the Washington Post, the branch of military service has decided that swastikas and nooses ...

The USA is dropping the mask for all the world to see.
AND STILL PEOPLE ARE ACTING LIKE EVERYTHING IS NORMAL! AT THIS POINT I WANT TO SEE MASS PANIC SO I KNOW I’M NOT CRAZY! AND I’M IN CANADA, I WANT MASS PANIC IN CANADA! I AT LEAST WANT THIS SHIT TAKEN SERIOUSLY ENOUGH THAT CANADIANS STOP FUCKING GOING TO THE STATES AS IF EVERYTHING IS NORMAL!
Nope, we’rs not. But I, like many people, am in a marginalized/bum-fuck town. So, my opinion doesn’t matter until the polls open. We voted against this evil, and we will again. But, our government wants to embrace the evil.
We can see it wants to. We don’t want it to. But, most of us don’t matter to the government. We’re not big-dollar donors, so our politicians will ignore us. They’ve minimalized most people so all that we can do is vote against it.
But, with where the Overton window is, we have one party running with regular evil while the other suggests a diet version of evil.

You say that, but the US is full of people still just going about their business. The country is operating fairly normally, all things considered, and the best you’ve got are sanctioned protests that are great for showing that people don’t love the situation but aren’t actually doing anything that couldn’t be responded to with an AI video of king Trump shit bombing everyone.

Maybe for a nation of cowards this is action, but really it’s just sad. You’re taking it lying down, and half of you are even fighting to make sure that ya’ll get completely fucked.
personally, I’m trans and I’m just trying to survive while I build an exit plan. damn right I’m laying down - I’m laying low.
It would be nice if Canadians would also stop voting for politicians who lead Canada in the same direction as the USA. We need to turn left, not right.
We can’t stop voting for conservatives to stop the Conservatives™ from getting power. We’re dumb as hell for that.

I wish Canadians would realise they are voting for the same policies, but all the newspapers are owned by a Republican American, and they dont know.
Honestly, I understand why my parents aren’t even panicking, the country we lived in before coming to the US, also had random arbitary policy changes, so… this just feels normal to them, authoritarianism is normal to them.
