Do you believe that Christo-fascism will take over America if Donald Trump is reelected? (midwest.social)

thought Christo-fascism already took over

Catholic Genocidal Silent Joe is president and the last fours years have gotten us more militarized police forces and the fall of Roe v. Wade

people that are not white and married to Jesus are being targeted and forests razed for a cop city training ground

You do understand that Biden had nothing to do with RvW, and the problem is the right-wing Supreme Court? He also has no control over what states and local governments do with their police force or law enforcement.

If you’re going to be angry, be angry at reality. Not some fiction you made up because it’s easier than the truth.

It's probably written by AI and just mixing the wrong talking points.

Edit: On further review, it seems he's just an idiot, in the truest sense of the word.

I'm starting to think more and more that the whole "Genocide Joe" thing is a Russian troll farm running through left-leaning social media to spread doing and suppress votes. They conveniently attack Joe Biden's initial relative silence, ignore the last few weeks including the State of the Union which was very strongly pro-Palestine, and even further ignore Donald "finish the job" Trump's violent anti-Palestine stance which would be actively genocidal.

Don't listen to these maniacs. They're not voters. They're trolls.

They’re worse than trolls, they’re Russian slaves.

It absolutely is. Meanwhile, im still trying to get Status Quo Joe to take off since 2019. Best part of that name is, its still an insult while being an acknowledgment that just bc hes a neoliberal tool to keep us all wage slaves, doesnt make him a fascist by any stretch. Under Status Quo Joe our civilian rights to effect change in gov't is not under threat. Under Status Quo Joe, foreign adversaries that want nothing more than for the US to be displaced from the worpd hegemony will be opposed, not welcomed.

Also under Status Quo Joe, you will still be underpaid to overperform, not have healthcare, LGBTQ folks will still face discrimination, and the climate will still be out to fuck us all up. But under Status Quo Joe, voicing dissent against any of those points will not be forecfully penalized bc Status Quo Joe does not regularly threaten anyone not pledging unwavering fealty. We will still be able to organize and plan direct action so that our wages/living conditions improve, we will still have a working governance which we can elect ppl who want to give us healthcare into, LGBTQ individuals will be able to exit their homes still looking fabulous bc their existence itself will not be threatened by the single most dangerous entity in the country, and we will still have the benefit of future elections (local and national) existing to mitigate climate change as we continue (for the love of fucking god, please...) to pursue direct action.

The russians are busy trying to make us all forget that our government is "BY the people." Hate it all you want, its made up of the ppl this populace has chosen. And if ur solution to it being ineffective is to burn it to the ground for "lE rEbeLuShuN," i think ur going to find that if u cant sway other ppls votes, ur going to be even less likely to convince them to take up arms against a drone wielding, omnipresent state when theyre more destitute and hungry, and less free of goverment interference in their lives then theyve ever been before.

Just a minor point; the federal government subsidizes a lot of military equipment for local law enforcement.

You know those big heavy armored trucks for swat? Federal money.
