      Because it is going exactly in that direction. The Netherlands has recently seen a surge in violent anti migration protests in front of refugee centers. It has seen the rise of militias on the border, looking for migrants to block. Said militias are discussing, on WhatsApp, of getting armed, hoping to find ‘them brown ones’.

      And now this.

        every time i see a video or article of a canadian or european decrying the american slide into fascism and urging americans to fight back, examples like this; of other western countries doing something similar; come to mind.

        I get real gloomy when I look at it from that perspective.

        It occured to me that trump didnt surround himself with those three billionaires because they are the richest but because their combined reach is approximately 100% of the western world. They’re his propaganda ministers. Goebbels 1, 2 and 3. The systemic manipulation of people 24/7 towards fascism and dividing them more and more has no way back imo.

        This will ultimately lead towards civil war in the west or global nuclear annihilation, whichever comes first.

    Can’t find an English article but the gist of it is that illegal immigrants can be sentenced to jail. It would also put you at risk of you help illegal immigrants in any way.
