What the actual fuck. How much farther does this fascist piece of shit have to go before people realize we will not vote our way out of this mess and the only chance we have to stop this madness is to put our lives on the line and fight for what is right. Not just posting about it, or going to marches supported by the controlled opposition party funded by the same billionaires who fund and support this demagogue. Polite non violent demonstrations do not threaten the power structure while they continue to violently suppress any meaningful change. We are at least 5 phases into the same journey of fascism Germany underwent almost a century ago. And everyone is too fucking worried about mowing their lawns, working for garbage wages at jobs they mostly hate and watching their favorite TV shows to face the reality of what is actually happening.
There are wait lists for people willing to get inpatient treatment and not nearly enough staff, beds, or money to cover them already. So you know they aren’t going somewhere to get treatment or get better. They also can’t be held indefinitely so will probably cycle in and out of 72 hour psych holds and jail more frequently, building up more aggressive fines and never forming any permanent housing or job or mental health improvement.
Why? Because there’s laws against holding someone indefinitely? Laws haven’t stopped this administration from doing anything else, I doubt it will stop them from tossing these people into tents in the [swamp | desert | ocean].
They’re going to be sent to labor camps to harvest the crops that are currently dying on the vine due to the bullshit “deportations.”
