I should probably point out that many people here in Canada fucking *hate* the very idea of this kind of equitable multiculturalism. The idea that arepas and poutine are both fully and equally Canadian sounds like hell to them. This is not unusual anywhere, I don't think.
@Sigmundkapje@surethingwhitey of course, it'd be foolish to ignore the fact that Trump and Republicans expanded ICE and DHS (the most overtly fascist paramilitary institutions in the US from the beginning) funding to be larger than pretty much every military on earth other than our own. He wanted an army of loyalists to make sure he never has to face consequences for anything he does, and the real military has previously balked at illegal actions like what ICE is currently doing.
🔴 L’Europa non è in pericolo perché si muove, ma perché resta ferma. Si difende invece di adattarsi, sacralizza l’identità mentre il mondo accelera. Le riforme tecniche falliscono senza una svolta psicologica e culturale. Così lo strappo non sarà evitato: sarà solo più violento.
@Sigmundkapje@surethingwhitey it's unlikely without an open civil war. States run elections, not the federal government. So, he could interfere with elections in very red states with complicit legislatures, but it's the swing states and blue states he needs to interfere with, and those seem unlikely to go along quietly. Which is why he's trying to interfere and manipulate in other ways. They're currently trying to extort access to voter data in Minnesota under threat of continued occupation.
