There were exactly three normal-sized people in that video.

You have no clue what they will do with 13x the annual budget for ICE.

The implications so far are that they WILL do many illegal things and make many mistakes and wont give a ****

They will deport a lot more illegals, and with more resources it will be far easier to do FEWER MISTAKES , so the proportion of legal residents / citizens unfairly targeted will obviously drop

I wouldn't worry too much myself until/unless he starts rounding up citizen's guns. He'd most certainly get a lot of help from the Left on that project.

I thought you weren't pro gun?


by coordi

Then they started arbitrarily rejecting citizenships

Guess what happened after that? Increased SS funding and support and throwing people in camps

We are ****ed. Well and truly ****ed

to play devil's advocate, hitler was an immigrant that was fleeing austrian police for draft dodging and was allowed to remain in germany as a stateless person until the nazi party hooked him up with a government job that bestowed german citizenship on him

what if trump is a time traveler who was sent back to ramp up anti-immigration in order to capture and deport hitler 2.0 before he comes to power?

Hitler was also a convicted felon attempting to overthrow the gvmnt.

if the state had reasoned like I do and executed him and his fellows at the first violent attempt to overthrow the gvmnt (which is something some guys here consider a fascist reaction, while it is the opposite), we wouldn't have heard of him.

Hitler happened because the coordies and biggerboats of 1920s Germany were against the death penalty for subversion


basically the state not killing Hitler (and all his accomplices) after the beer hall putsch was one of the worst moral failures of western democracies in history

Lol the left hasn't helped in reducing gun ownership. The US had about a 50% increase in the circulation of guns in the last 10 years - from an already very high number.

Also, a lot of those people ended up buying guns because of the left. If we go full confiscation, many on the left will just end up supporting gun ownership.

If Trump tried suspending the constitution/declaring himself Der Fuhrer, you'd very probably- even almost certainly- have another Jan 06, only this time it wouldn't be by the Maga crowd, but by those who hold democracy and freedom sacred.

While hopefully by then , trump has not increase his power to the extent he would be unstoppable .

He owns the fbi, military, justice department, and his new gestapo, ice. All with the blessing of congress and the Supreme Court. Not sure what other power he needs.


by coordi

We will stop just short of gassing people

Sending them to South Sudan and setting them free in the middle of the desert naked and with no provisions would probably be more fun anyway.

This is what we mean when we try to explain what TDS is.1) Hitler never won a straight majority in a fair election.2) Hitler used power to get a new election immediately after, and used a fabricated crisis to start jailing political opponents. He had parliament vote the emergency by forcibly keeping opponing members of parliament out There was widespread violence countrywide ta

He has definitely done some of the things you just mentioned.

He tried to subvert the 2020 election and did subvert the 2024 election, or actually republican governors in purple states did. We will never know if their actions made the difference or not.

He has fabricated a crisis to start jailing and committing violence on his political opponents. You must view undocumented immigrants as his political opponents, as he claims they have been brought here to vote for his opposition.

His administration has also started to violently arrest democratic politicians, and he prohibited members of the opposition from observing what is going on in foreign prisons and even in US department headquarters.
So we really have no idea what kinds of things are going on in those places.


by Luciom

You know what the only proper parallel with Hitler can be for Trump? That he got to power thanks to disastrous inflation caused by the mistakes of his predecessors

Yes, but in this case, he was personally one of his predecessors, and he was the one who started the policies which led to the large increase in inflation.


by coordi

I think the statement "your country is only going to go half nazi so you are being melodramatic" should be challenged

Even going 10% nazi is too much nazi and should be rejected with every ounce of being

I hope you're doing more than just debating a couple people on a poker forum while Nazism is building up in the US. Is that your 'every ounce of being' to reject Nazis?

Hitler was enabled by coward/partisan judges who agreed with his ideology, actually. Not the coordis and biggerboats of the world. The hell are you on?

The lay judges were fanatically pro-Nazi and had to be dissuaded by the presiding Judge, Georg Neithardt, from acquitting Hitler outright.[42] Hitler and Hess were both sentenced to five years in Festungshaft ('fortress confinement') for treason. Festungshaft was the mildest of the three types of jail sentence available in German law at the time; it excluded forced labour, provided reasonably comfortable cells, and allowed the prisoner to receive visitors almost daily for many hours. This was the customary sentence for those whom the judge believed to have had honourable but misguided motives, and it did not carry the stigma of a sentence of Gefängnis (common prison) or Zuchthaus (disciplinary prison). In the end, Hitler served just over eight months of this sentence before his early release for good behaviour.[43] Prison officials allegedly wanted to give Hitler deaf guards, to prevent him from persuading them to free him.[28]
Although the trial was the first time that Hitler's oratory was insufficient,[28] he used the trial as an opportunity to spread his ideas by giving speeches in the courtroom. The event was extensively covered in the newspapers the next day. The judges were impressed (Presiding Judge Neithardt was inclined to favouritism towards the defendants prior to the trial), and as a result, Hitler served just over eight months in prison and was fined 500 ℛ︁ℳ︁.[5]

yes that is my point.
but he still doesnt have full control on all of them for now.

the concept of believing doing massive amount of debt during a record low unemployment, no crisis, massive tax cut , during an expansionary economic era, makes absolutely no sense to me....
but it does for luciom.


by biggerboat

Now do jan 6.

Sounds good to me. How'd Jan 6th work out? Iirc Trump vacated the White House and Biden was President for four years.

And iirc Trump won the 2024 election even though Harris "ran a flawless campaign."

Trump could have declared martial law on January 19, 2021 and stayed in office.

Iirc he didn't do that.

That said, he certainly MIGHT not leave office on January 19, 2029.

Btw, do you have any escrowed bets on the U.S. not ever having elections again? I'm sure you could get a ton of action on an even-money bet.


by coordi

And you are a hypocritical moron who goes to bat for Luciom constantly implying that you broadly agree with his nonsense

Luciom thinks youre a rube who deserves to get fleeced

Just like you going to bat for Trump. Trump literally despises people like you

Yes, I 'broadly'agree' with most of his writings.

I also 'broadly agree' with Rocco and Tame.

I even sometimes give a 'thumb's up' to Trolly.

What's your point?


by Luciom

LOOOOOOLuciom


by coordi

Because that is what politics is. You support people who respect your wants and needs.

Except this forum isn't politics, it folks talking about politics.

Why would or should I give a hoot or a holler what some anonymous poster in a low-traffic forum thinks about me?

You've made it abundantly clear that you dislike me disliking Luciom being a white supremacist fascist more than you dislike Luciom being a white supremacist fascist. Not sure how people are supposed to interpret that but it just makes me think you are probably a white supremacist and possibly a fascist

I realize you might have confirmation bias (ofc I do too), but I've called out a number of disgusting things that Lucioum has said. Do you remember any of those?

And you might remember that you are the one who insisted on creating this dynamic between us because of the point above.

Fair point.

It amazes me he declares himself a Christian, even more so that from his quoting of certain prayers, he appears to have been originally Catholic. He earlier claimed he was born again and that lot are on the weirder end of things.

1. I've never been Catholic.

2. I have quoted from the Book of Common Prayer, which is Anglican.

2. Yes, I'm a weirdo.

3.. And I can't count.


by biggerboat

I thought you weren't pro gun?

I don't personally like guns and would never own one.

That said, often the first step for a tyrant to gain power is to disarm the populace.

He gets AOC on his team, and it's game...set ... match!

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer_Hal...

why did high treason against the state have the option of only 5 years (and potentially even less with early parole) of sentencing, and not exclusively the death penalty, if not for the coordies and biggerboats of the time?

do you personally agree with me he should have been executed along with all arrested participants and the same should apply to anyone who does similar acts today in our countries?

The correct verb to use is "will". Eat less and walk more for three months, then when you start to see where that takes you, make a plan for how you want to progress further.

Exactly what will work for you is your business, but doing nothing doesn't work for anyone.
