George Takei 
🏳️🌈🖖🏽We stop this now, or we become like Russia. Plain as day.

Tailkinker@georgetakei Good luck stopping it.
@AlexBlock has moved@georgetakei I read the caption as:
WHITE HOUSE SAYS IT WILL
DECIDE WHICH MEDIA OUTLETS
COVER TRUMP IN SESS POOL.
That may be more accurate going forward.
GJ Groothedde 🇪🇺@georgetakei Depose Krasnov !
xs4me2Unbelievable…
zakzakCan we stop it tomorrow? Had something else planned for today
Gokul Das@georgetakei Pardon me, but there is already an uncanny resemblance from my vantage point outside either nations. Just sayin.
That reminds me! I wonder if my vantage point is doing any better. Catch you later - if the world doesn't catch an express back to the dark ages in the meantime.
yuhasz01Memo to WH stooges: you need a mass PR propaganda campaign constantly to extols virtues of the new regime and actions. POTUS only has 49% of the electorate....
Vee
PhosphenesWhite House to kick press out of bullshit fest. AP may be forced to solely do investigative reporting of Trump's actions.
Don't threaten them with a good time.
Beluga@georgetakei For some days now I'm reading a German newspaper from 1933. Hitler's playbook at the time was
1. Suppress opposition in the admin
2. Suppress political opposition
3. Intimidate the free press
4. Turn police into a political tool
There are clear signs of 1. and 3. in the US, not sure about the other two.

Attached: 1 image Sat, Feb 25 1933 Göring decree to establish "Hilfspolizei" [support police] - Riots by radical left and communists overload regular police forces. Support police shall relieve regular forces by helping to secure political events and help police with riots; only honorable and national Germans can apply https://zeitpunkt.nrw/ulbms/date/day/7107980?d=1933-02-25 #fascismDiary
RenkeSiems@georgetakei Seen from outside: it's a coup, and if democracy can't stand and is going to lose the fight, it's time for the army to step in and end this bizarre opera. Otherwise you will be western ruzzia, that's clear.
Jan-Theo Wassink@georgetakei 'become'?
Ms Ngo@georgetakei Alas, I do believe that ship has sailed.
@georgetakei The scope is there to become worse than Russia right now. It's genuinely really worrying.
Egret@georgetakei misread that as “cesspool”
canevecchio@georgetakei @jon_wnc Every time I see this woman, with her little Christian pendant winking at me like an iron cross, I think to myself, “A barbie doll Nazi? How weird!” And then I remember reading about the ideals of Himmler’s “Lebensborn” project, and I think “maybe not all THAT weird.” Trump does love him some Aryans, after all. That’s been clear since well before he surfed down his golden escalator in 2015.
Ken@georgetakei Russia? Hell, 1933 - 34 Nazi Germany!
Sharon Raines@georgetakei in other words, State Run and/or Approved media only. Welcome to Russia.
Jens Ljungkvist@georgetakei That's the goal. It was all laid out in Project 2025.
TC Won't Give In To LiesPlease boost!
#GeneralStrike tomorrow, Feb 28th. Don't buy anything from an American corporation. There may just barely be time for the oligarchs to stop full-on fascism.

Talk of a "Feb 28 Economic Blackout" is spreading on social media. What is it?
A grassroots effort is asking American consumers to refrain from making purchases at major retailers for one day in February.
GuyS@TCatInReality @georgetakei Nice to see US people trying to oppose to dictatorship. Maybe it’s not too late.
Luca da Firenzewell...
US is today at 75% already like Russia
Jonathan@georgetakei in cesspool? Oh press pool.
ideaPDish@georgetakei
Looks like a typo in this meme.. Cess pool is mispelled.
