George Takei 
🏳️🌈🖖🏽This perfectly encapsulates what the GOP position is on the shutdown.
Karsten@georgetakei
Are there actually any efforts to end the shutdown? To find a compromise? Or will the shutdown continue until 2026?
(Asking from Germany)
Sibylle@alchemist
I (from Switzerland) assume there is no plan to end the shutdown.
I rather think they want to use the shutdown to cause riots to escalate. This will be used to justify more police/military/special force whatever name they find for gestapo to incarcarcarate people to make them work for free KZ style.
I really hope I'm wrong.
Alaric Snell-Pym@sibylle @alchemist the right-wing takeover thrives on chaos and disruption, so yes, I think the shutdown is just what they want.
