Thank you to Steve Bannon for giving away the game:

Step 1: Show the people that ICE can kill anybody.

Step 2: Have ICE show up at polling stations in areas where people vote against Trump, so those neighborhoods do not go vote.

ICE doesn't have that many people.

Also, Minnesota had a special election with ICE oppressing them and scaring people from going out in public. They voted in spite of it.

Minnesotans just showed they’ll ‘crawl over broken glass’ to vote, despite ICE terror

If Trump sends troops to disrupt voting, he could face a massive backlash

If you read the article, you'd get that the point is that the regular people don't support this to the point that they are motivated to act against these ICE kidnappings and violence.

History and present actions show that eventually all dictatorships are overthrown.

@[email protected] @[email protected] History shows that it takes decades to overcome dictatorship. In the case of Germany and the other Axis powers, military actions were necessary from the outside. That was all before computer were available, the internet, surveillance cameras, face recognition software, surveillance capitalism, worldwide media companies in the hands of few regime-friendly owners.

Yep. Once they're enmeshed, they're hard to get out.

All the more reason to do everything you can now while courts still rule against them and the public is still shocked by their murders.

It won't get easier as time goes by. Just more difficult.
