Florida is Patient Zero for American Fascism and the Libs Do Not Have an Answer to that Under the Constitution

Some actual sources on this:

Right wing nut jobs do fascism.

LIBBBBSSSSS!!!!

???

Yes liberals aren't great and all. But this is sort of brain injury levels of dysfunction. A state level issue in a state where it's elected officials are attacking the citizens. And people whine about why the out of power largely unelected group isn't exercising more power? Because your mother f****** neighbors didn't put them in power. For all the problems liberals have. This is a voter problem. I'm not sure what they're hoping or expecting? New York or California to invade and set up a provisional government pending new elections?
- People who bitch about "the libs" are usually tankies so anything short of rising up in violence to "do somthing" is doing nothing.
- Run DeSantis out on rails

The constitution is an outdated pact between slavers in order to violently control people. It's working as intended. It's actually not a magic document from god.

Ronnie, you silly goof. What will you do when you term-limit out of power and have no one you can bully. I think I'll start sending you love letters about how I want to lick the pudding from your fingers while gazing into your heartless empty eyes.

- The term limit is Constitutional so he should have got something on the ballot this cycle if he wanted that changed. Here's the kicker though, it's not a lifetime limit. He can't serve more than 2 consecutive terms but he could come back in 2030.
  Considering he's had laws Changed in the past to protect his position, this wasn't a crazy thought. It sent me doing research to see if it was possible.
Pretty sure in Florida he can come back for another 2 terms after sitting 1 term out

News article from a local paper with more details and interviews with voters that were questioned.

Potentially going to PRISON which would literally RUIN YOUR LIFE UNTIL YOU DIE for Signing a Ballot is PROOF that FLORIDA IS THE FREEST STATE ON EARTH!

wdym, this sounds unconstitutional as hell

And where is the DOJ? This sounds super unconstitutional.

Merrick Garland isn't going to interrupt a conservative colleague unless congress publicly shames him first.
Okay, sure, it sounds unconstitutional. And yes, it does appear that this DOJ is sitting back and letting it happen. But the DOJ under Trump would be worse, so you have to say nice things about Merrick Garland.

"I won't answer any questions without my lawyer present. If you don't have a warrant please leave my property "

There is a solution to this, but it is not a peaceful or quick one. Most non-conservatives won't consider it. Most conservatives know this, and so they continue on their path to full oppression.

Soap box, ballot box, bullet box.

I wonder if these jack boots are wearing level 4 plates.

The continental US: Hey florida how you doing?

florida: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Dems have basically given up here in FL. It is rough out here.

We know your answer to it would be sectarian violence with no clear objectives resulting in excessive loss of life with the end result being the most violent sociopaths taking power and not letting go.

Mao once said "true power comes from the barrel of a gun" but Mao was a psychotic pedo and didnt realise that guns only have the power to end life not create it or to build anything lasting.

Go back to ML with this tankie bullshit.

Fascism is fucking terrible but they will only win if your solution to it is turn your home into a warzone.

This just in: Lemmy user believes pointing out fascism is also fascism.
- Yeah the amount of fascist apologia in this thread is kinda alarming...
- How the hell did you arrive at that conclusion?

Freeeeee speeeeeech

I think someone posted this somewhere in the chain: https://www.tampabay.com/news/florida-politics/elections/2024/09/06/florida-abortion-amendment-petition-signature-fraud-voters/
I’ve really come to peace with this. I want to make lots of posts that and touch on many things, shallowly, even. Like. I do write good things and do more than just the barest funnest parts of research and verification, but like. This is the [very occasionally]shitty Anarcho socialist america bad side blog.

Betcha Elon "free speech absolutist" Musk has a lot to say about this. Any minute now.

...crickets...

Double post

This is why you don’t even answer the door. If you do don’t open it and tell them to go fornicate themselves with a rusty iron rod 😡

Democrats don't become perfect and nice and progressive just bc you ignore how they do nothing about fascism :3

and please explain to me how we get rid of fascism, i want to hear your tankie ass explain how fascism is "removed" from society.
- Your assumption is that fascism is... inevitable? non-existent? not worth fighting? ...good or useful, even?
  Just trying to pin your motivation in calling someone a tankie just for pointing out passive enablement of fascism...
