The group that drafted a key blueprint for Donald Trump’s second term convened a meeting in Washington D.C. this week to consider proposals for bulldozing the European Union (EU).
The Polish investigative outlet VSquare revealed that the Heritage Foundation gathered hardline conservative groups on 11 March to hear how they would overhaul the current structures of the EU.
The “closed-door workshop” featured a debate on a new paper produced by the lobby groups MCC and Ordo Iuris entitled: “The Great Reset: Restoring Member State Sovereignty in the 21st Century”.
I am truly, honestly and in all seriousness scared. I have already sought professional help, have my First Session tomorrow but i must say… The Things that Happen These days worry me to a Point where i am truly afraid of the Future.
Ive never been more worried in my life. Not for myself so much, I’m older so i won’t have to live that long in their authoritarian future. I’m extremely worried about my 25 year old son, and my 3 year old niece. This will be their world.
It is really affecting my son, who is losing hope, and so are his friends. They don’t see a future of freedom and pride in their country. My son made friends from all over the world when he was in college, and even they are worried about the future of the world with a Nazi regime in America.
If there isn’t a Musk file on me yet, there will be, and eventually the list will reach my name. I’ve been thinking about what would radicalize me beyond propagandizing on Lemmy (now that im permabanned from Vichy Reddit after 12 years and nearly a million karma for anti-Trump posts), and all patriotic, loyal Americans should be thinking about it, too. I have to stick around as long as possible for my wife and son, but if something were to happen to them, especially my son, then I’ve got nothing to lose, and it’s on, and i go full on guerilla warfare.
No more doomscrolling for you. Spend time with real people face to face, and you’ll feel the difference within a week.
Head-in-the-sand strategies wont work, you’ll just pull your head out to a worse situation. It’s better to learn to put your fear and anxiety to use, keeping the treason of these Nazis in front of the entire world. Make them know how despised they are in decreasing polls. Resist everything they are doing, and encourage your friends. Apply Malicious Compliance wherever possible. Keep the pressure on your government officials. Recent town halls for both Republicans and Democrats have been heavily attended by EXTREMELY angry citizens. They need to know how angry we are, and how immensely outnumbered they are.
Lean into your worrying, transform it into anger, and let that fuel your resistance.
If the situation really is that bad, you’ll hear about it without any doomscrolling. If you don’t come across a topic in normal casual conversations or by reading papers in a library, it’s probably not actually that urgent.
There’s so much unnecessary doom and gloom floating around on mainstream social medias that I can’t really consider them a healthy option for news consumption.
I AM hearing about it without doomscrolling. Do you watch ANY news, or any other media?
This isn’t just Liberal propaganda, these people are really dismantling our government at a record pace, and they are deliberately doing it recklessly to cause the most chaos. Not only can we NOT avoid it, we SHOULDNT avoid it. We need to turn our fears and worries into white-hot anger at what these MAGATurd Nazis are doing to our nation, and the world.
This is such a privileged take. And I know because I’m also privileged. I’m a straight, white, cis, male. I grew up in an Evangelical Christian home, and could pretend to be Christian if needed (though I won’t). You and I are lucky enough to be able to ignore this until we “hear about it without doomscrolling.”
Like you do realize that this means that you’ll hear about it when shit is really fucking bad. I guess fuck trans people, right? Wouldn’t want to hurt my mental health to hear about the literal genocide that’s coming.
I understand where it comes from, but I think this is just bad advice. We cannot encourage people to ignore what is happening.
Yes, they want you like that, like a scared little middle class, who just wants to work for a corporation, watch some sports and go skiing.
I can relate for sure. Not to the same degree as you, from what it sounds like, but definitely very worried for the future.
That said, I do believe Europe is more resilient than the US here. And while that has been my main pain point with the EU for a long time, the fact that it’s not very democratic might make it even more resilient to fascist take-over.
They are all talk and no action. Don’t worry.
They haven’t been able to properly implant a tariff and that’s the simplest thing in the world.
All bark and no bite?
Did you see the clips of “Venezuelan gang members” being shipped to El Salvador, who was happy to accept them? In the past few years i saw photos and videos of Russian prisoners and Chinese Uyghurs treated exactly the same way, with outage from the Western media and officials. Now were doing it, too. Instead of seeing those reports as a cautionary tale, MAGA Traitors saw them as a game plan.
People like Kapo Stephen “PeeWee Himmler” Miller and Steve “Unwiped Asshole” Bannon want to treat their American citizen enemies the same way, and worse. Miller has said that he wants to reduce the population of America to 100 million, from its current population of 330 million. How do you think a Nazi loving freak like him intends to reduce the population by 70%?
Viciously barking dogs are often vicious biters as well. When a dog is barking, its best to heed the warning.
Pretty sure the USA have been doing extraditions and puting prisoners in off-site camps (Guantanamo anyone?) since long before trump.
Stay strong! I hope the help makes you feel better. We will prevail
