For me that’s not the scary part.

It’s the fact that the institutions e.g. Congress, Judiciary are not able or willing to push back. And so we are seeing retribution for First Amendment activities e.g. protests being widespread despite it being clearly unconstitutional.

Project 2025 was right in that if you flood the zone the system won’t be responsive enough to stop you.

Even worse, the population at large seems or acts indifferent.

This happened continuously during the Biden administration when they formed an entire network of public-private censorship and liberals told us “freedom of speech does not mean freedom of reach.” You can also reference the entire saga of Russiagate, and litany of lawfare against Trump that was looking for every and any way to jail him and his family.

Low effort lies and handwavy "they did it first." Give it up. It's a fucking dictatorship and you're supporting it.

You’re unhinged and breaking HN rules, sorry. I’m not the one cursing.
