Trumpists have not lived through a dictatorship. Some of us have. They blindly accept having Trump as a dictator. They haven’t experienced the gradual gnawing at rights, including human rights. Trumpists think it’s funny and entertaining to listen to someone using Nazi rhetoric, humiliating even his sycophants. Trumpist women are in denial of how a sexist pig has no regrets about cheating on his wife and assaulting women. They all regurgitate dumb lies and nonsense like puppets with giant mouths, limp minds and shriveled souls. They know nothing of what will happen in an actual dictatorship in America. Listen up fools!
- Those that are not loyal to the regime and its fuhrer are persecuted, tortured, and killed. One favorite torture I recall was that of pulling people’s nails until they rat out those that are like-minded. Another one is to throw prisoners in pig pens and leave them there for days to drink, feed and defecate like pigs. Sleep deprivation is popular, with loud noises and bright lights for days. Someone I loved very much lived through all of this. He survived. Scarred for life, wishing he had died.
- Those that are rational, neutral, professors, scientists, engineers, doctors, are imprisoned, disappear, and are stripped of wealth, if not killed. No reasoning is allowed.
- Curfews are put in place to control what people might do in the dark. A warped sense of morality and archaic standards are enforced with violence, the press and music are censored. There is no freedom of speech, dissent, or right to congregate other than in religious venues and even this is under vigilance and scrutiny. It’s the antithesis of democracy.
It’s their way or you are dead. With the police and military behind them, plus the gun lover crazies, those with the most guns and tanks win. Citizens that barely pass the loyalty test walk on edge, tense, scared, like automats without free will, hiding their principles and ideas, holding back on rejecting injustice, and role modeling fear to their children. These are the living dead.
The few in positions of power, of full control over the livelihoods of others beyond the known haves and have nots, dominate people deemed unworthy of freedom or dignity simply due to how they think or what they believe, grow richer and more entitled. They feed on greed and righteousness. They don’t give up.
Dictatorships go on for decades. When people get too noisy, elections are mentioned and then forgotten. Leaving the country is not an option unless you can pay for it. Everyone is suspect and using safety and security as justification, it’s more like one big prison, and not a country of the people and for the people.
It sucks that Trumpists have not lived through a dictatorship. Some of us will not be shocked about what will happen if this fuhrer gets elected. It will be deja vu.
