This is why there's parallels between #Russia and the #US. Again; when law is weaponized to police #FreeSpeech, to police the #freedom of protest, that's when you're an #autocratic state.
70 years prison for being present, 30 years #prison for moving a box of literature. If it's not apparent to you by now that #Republicans and #MAGA absolutely HATE #liberty & #democracy, then you're just stupid.

"#Trump says he will order the U.S. #military to commit #warcrimes against #Iran if the strait is not reopened."
We certainly hope the commanders of the #forces involved paid close attention to their 8 million fellow #Americans who took to the streets to decry the rise of #autocratic #warmongering maniacs.

I'm bashing the Democrats in Congress and the Senate, because they deserve bashing. They have consistently failed to meet the moment in responding to this lawless, autocratic, christofascist administration. Nothing but yelling this at them, loudly and continually, will get through to them.
Remember Chuck "We wrote a strongly worded letter" Schumer?
Remember Hakeem "I'm going to set the length record for filibustering in the House for no actual reason just for the publicity, but I won't filibuster any of the horrific bills the lickspittle, Trump-fellating Republicans keep passing" Jeffries?
The chances of Democrats growing a spine and refusing to fund the war when they fear being accused of "not supporting the troops" are ... not good.
But hey, my views are only informed by decades of observation and commentary about these extremely obvious and widely-known problems with the Democratic party.
"You can't criticize our side!" is 100% high-test bullshit.

Global human rights system is in peril
The year 2025 may come to be seen as a “tipping point” when #democratic institutions were severely damaged and #HumanRights suffered as a result, according to Human Rights Watch (HRW).
It’s annual report, released on Wednesday, the New York-based non-profit warned that the reelection of US President Donald #Trump has emboldened #autocratic #regimes across the world, with devastating consequences for vulnerable groups and minorities.

For reasons that are quite possibly too unbearable to contemplate, a large group of American voters was not repulsed by such slander—they were actually aroused by it—& our #politics have not been the same. Much has been said, including by me, about Trump’s #narcissism, his #autocratic inclinations, his disconnection from #reality, but not nearly enough has been said about his fundamental #indecency, the characteristic that undergirds everything he says & does.

Definition of #Authoritarianism (via #Wikipedia) :
"Authoritarianism is a political system characterized by the rejection of political plurality, the use of strong central power to preserve the political #StatusQuo, and reductions in #democracy, #SeparationOfPowers, civil liberties, and the rule of law. #Authoritarian regimes may be either #autocratic or #oligarchic and may be based upon the rule of a party, the military, or the concentration of power in a single person."

How to Respond to Donald Trump’s Threats
#CrimethInc, 2025-09-18
"In a post on Truth Social yesterday, Donald #Trump declared that he is designating '#Antifa' as 'a major terrorist organization.' What does that mean? How can we prepare to weather the storm? Everyone should read this guide.
"It’s always difficult to tell how seriously to take Trump’s performative declarations. He makes wild statements to see what plays to his audience, throwing things against the wall to see what sticks, and then doubles down wherever there is no pushback. But this time around, his administration has stuck very close to the classic fascist playbook, with one supporter going so far as to declare without any irony that the shooting of #CharlieKirk 'is the #AmericanReichstag fire.' The obvious next step in that playbook is to expand from targeting immigrants to go after #anarchists, #leftists, and other opponents of the #regime as well.
"Yes, Trump has previously declared that he would designate 'Antifa' a 'terrorist organization,' most famously at the outset of the #GeorgeFloydRevolt. But at that time, the rest of the federal government largely acted as a brake on his impulses — whereas today, the entire executive branch of the federal government is comprised of toadies and sycophants who are incapable of distinguishing their interests from his.
"Granted, there is no law authorizing the president to designate domestic terrorist organizations. But even without new legislation or an executive order, Trump has direct control over the Department of Justice, the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Bureau of Investigations, and other federal agencies. What he says on social media is probably indicative of what he will direct his underlings to do.
"The fact that 'Antifa' is not an organization at all, but rather a nebulous category that could include virtually anyone who disapproves of Trump’s #autocratic agenda, is convenient for Trump.
"This means that, regardless of who you are or what you do, you, too, could become a target. That’s why everyone should review the following suggestions, whether or not you think they apply to you. Rather than spreading panic, preparing ourselves in concrete ways will enable us to approach this situation calmly and effectively.
"While no 'domestic terror organization' designation currently exists — and nor does any obvious mechanism to establish one — far-right prosecutors already have a track record of groundlessly pressing trumped-up terrorism charges as a means of terrorizing activists and supporters of social movements. Trump has explicitly called for the use of #racketeering charges to suppress his critics. #FarRight Republican senators are already sponsoring a bill that would add rioting to the list of offenses that the Justice Department can use as part of a probe under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations [#RICO] Act.
"There are obvious precedents for how this might go. Two years ago, a wide range of defendants in #AtlantaGA were randomly charged under the RICO act as part of the repression of the #StopCopCity movement. The cases have been endlessly delayed—and earlier this month, a judge dismissed most of the charges on a technicality.
Under Donald Trump, many federal agencies are disorganized and focused chiefly on managing perceptions. This precisely describes the authorities who brought the haphazard RICO charges in #Georgia two years ago. If the trajectory of the Stop Cop City RICO case offers any indication of how other RICO persecutions of accused activists might go, the chief threat may not be that the crackdown Trump is calling for will send people to prison, but rather that the charges will discourage and immobilize people, creating the conditions for the Trump administration to eventually supersede this form of repression with something worse.
"It remains to be seen how seriously the administration will carry out Trump’s threats, and whether they will start by attacking #grassroots groups or proceed from the top down, targeting massive liberal institutions and fundraising platforms. In either case, our long-term prospects will depend on whether we can enable large numbers of people to act in solidarity with each other, taking up the kind of grassroots direct action tactics that can be effective regardless of whether the people who control the state wish to listen.
"We all live in Atlanta now.
"Here are some steps you can take to protect yourself and your community, proceeding from the immediate to the general."

Trump’s demonising, scapegoating segments of society are uncomfortable echoes of 1930s prewar #Germany
His insistence on abject loyalty, taking control of state, independent & cultural institutions to serve his own ends have drawn comparisons to #fascist and #autocratic #regimes

Can anyone share an argument* that justifies having a "President" (the replacement word for #King / single, #autocratic leader)? *Not historical, IE. because people were used to Kings and the revolutionaries trying to form the US needed the votes of the Tory / #monarchy apologists.

An autocratic leader controls all decisions, rarely taking input from the team, but should provide clarity and structure. Can take away a teams freedom and creativity, but is good in certain settings like the military. #leader #business #autocratic #control

Autocratic leadership is good for times that quick decisions are needed. Long-term, though, employees have less input, freedom, flexibility, creativity, and empowerment under this form of leadership. #business #leadershipstyles #leader #autocratic

#EdMartin advocated greater #US - #Russia cooperation before Trump’s 1st meeting as pres w/ #Putin, in Germany in July 2017, saying on #RT that he expected Trump to come away w/ “some affinity w/Putin.” He struck the same note just after the #Ukraine invasion, as the US imposed sanctions on Putin personally.

CW: USPol, Trump
I'm afraid that the #USAnians who are out organizing and trying to prevent a slide into #fascism are fighting the wrong war -- the last war, in fact.
That slide is over; the USA is now a fascist, #autocratic state. They need to be working as a #resistance, a #rebellion, an #insurgency, trying to put fascism down and restore a lawful state - not trying to be good citizens, writing letters of complaint or holding up signs of disapproval or expecting organs of the state to do the right thing..
If you don't believe the #USA is #fascist yet...
The administration has been illegally #impounding #funds allocated by #Congress since inauguration day. They keep adding to the list. This is a violation of black-letter law, and also a violation of the US Constitution's separation of powers. #Courts have issued multiple orders directing the administration to resume disbursing those funds as allocated, and are essentially ignoring those orders.
The administration is violating - outright abrogating - lawful contracts it has signed to pay for various services. They are refusing to continue abiding by these contracts. They are refusing to make contractually obligated payments without following any of the procedures in these contracts for cancelling those services. Courts have issued multiple orders to rectify this too. The administration has ignored those orders.
The administration is refusing to make payments for services *already rendered*. Illegal.

Fossil industry makes a profit of 3 billion per day. Only 40 days of this profit equals US spending for #Ukraine.Ukraine is just the beginning. Europe and China is the target.
#Resistance angainst #Trump and #Putin and fight for #democracy means to get rid of fossil fuel as fast as possible. This will decrease their financial basis.
