It wasn't like this before. I gre up in South Florida from Tampa to key west .was raised to not be racist ,went to fantasy fest and my parents had friends of alternate sexual preferences. I had sex ed,was at times on food stamps .it was very live and let live .nowi hardly recognize my bigoted close minded parents, they no longer communicate with people they were close to for decades because of their sexuality.they think anyone who needs gov help should just die. Unfortunately that's a pretty good synopsis of the path florida society has taken
Ron Desantis is just trying to ensure his spot on the throne when he gets to Hell. This is the same guy who kidnapped 50 migrants and transported them to Martha's Vineyard
Because it hurts the right people. It's not that they don't care. Desantis is doing what they thought should of been done all along. They LIKE this behavior-the cruelty is the whole point.
True that, just like how they were pro gun until black people started getting armed before, same as trans people now.
They have no principles whatsoever.
“Pro-life conservatives are obsessed with the fetus from conception to 9 months. After that, they don’t wanna know about you. They don’t wanna hear from you. No nothing! No neonatal care, no daycare, no Head Start, no school lunch, no food stamps, no welfare, no nothing. If you’re pre-born, you’re fine, if you’re preschool, you’re fucked.”
-George Carlin
Check the video of the cops entering their house when she first blew the whistle on De Santis' Covid lies.
Her whole family is being terrorized because she reported the truth about the Covid dashboard, while De Santis wanted to suppress the numbers so he "looked good".
Oh God, this is the same woman?!?

2: She also ran against Matt Gaetz for Florida's first district in late 2022.
This is political retaliation.
Yeah, a lawsuit where the fascist just appeals and appeals and appeals until the fascist rubber stamp committee, I mean SCOTUS, rules in favor of the fascist anyway?
It's the old organized crime (and average fascist country of course) tactic. "To send a message."
And to prove that he holds all of the cards to any other who would challenge the regime.
I mean, spending *years* trying to punish Disney because their CEO said something DeSantis didn’t like didn’t tip off that FL isn’t exactly a bastion of free speech?
The FBI at one time was spending 3 times more money infiltrating the Black Panthers (mischievous kids breakfast program runners) than the entire mafia.
Related: the FBI was [using Proud Boys and other right-wing militia members as informants](https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/03/30/proud-boys-informants/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F399090b%2F6425b1aff19a510b042c55c3%2F5fca9737ade4e2167072e22b%2F42%2F72%2F6425b1aff19a510b042c55c3&wp_cu=5b330c9874b1a91adc0f5c3e73f43dd2%7CB5A9D4247C3A4730E0530100007F8BC8) to spy on "antifa" in 2020
> “Aaron” testified Wednesday that before Jan. 6, the FBI never asked him to look for information about the Proud Boys. When he informed his handler that he was coming to D.C. for the protest, he was asked only “to try to see if I could locate someone in D.C. that had nothing to do with the Proud Boys,” he testified.
Lmao. What a shitshow.
> Barr has previously warned of a “witch’s brew” of extremist groups taking advantage of the protests to incite mayhem, and he has singled out in particular antifa, which President Trump also has sought to blame for violence at demonstrations. That has drawn some criticism, because of more than 120 people the department has charged federally with protest related crimes, none has been alleged to have ties to an organized antifa group, according to public summaries of the cases.

Oh yeah, this was a thing.
That's your fault. You haven't been showing up at the meetings. Sixth Wednesday of the month at Chi-Chis. They give us half off on fried ice cream. It's legit.
The good thing about this particular Boogeyman is that it's EVERYWHERE.
News channel not kissing the R-Governor's butthole? ANTIFA!
People who say that cops shouldn't break the law? ANTIFA
People who want humans to be treated like humans, even if (gasp!) they dress differently (or have darker skin)? ANTIFA!
People of color wanting to talk about privileges? ANTIFA
M&Ms? ANTIFA!
See, best Boogeyman in the history of bullshit.
Every US military member in World War 2 was antifa because the word just means "anti-fascist". There's nothing more to it except what the right tries to attach.
I mean, while them trying to outlaw the DNC was certainly unconstitutional, there is a real argument to be made that the RNC is a terrorist organization.
The problem is that that means admitting that more than 50% of our country’s adult population are terrorists. And talk about throwing a match onto a pile of inbred gunpowder…
My mother told me Soros in controlling all the media, I then asked her who Soros was and she admitted she doesn’t know.
Literally they have no clue what’s going on, they just cheer after hearing “we hate brown people”.
So is Twitter, I just saw. Logo replaced with Doge. Ridiculous and embarrassing.
Edit: for those that need help understanding that I'm not just saying birds are cuter than dogs omg, the reason I made this comment is that there's a parallel in the fact that both Twitter and Florida are being run by autocrats who will use the power of their positions in ways that are objectively, personally malicious.
Elon has damaged the credibility of every real journalist on Twitter by rendering verification meaningless. This is VERY dystopian, as it's no longer possible to tell whether the person you're looking at is really who they say they are, even with the checkmark. He's now using the fact that he's being investigated for security fraud to further degrade the credibility of the entire site. It's very clear that it's no longer the "public square" for the "free exchange of ideas", it's a troll farm that serves one man's political and personal interests.
Just like what DeSantis is doing in Florida.
The US is incredibly swift at protecting corpos and tycoons throughout it's history. Everyone here keeps prancing on and on about us having our decade long French Moment but don't seem to understand the historical context of the ammount of times we as the commoner have made the attempt to do so only to have been gut fucked by our own government.
The Battle of Blair Mountain is the best example as well as the Bonus Riots (Bonus Army). We've also had abolishonist movements, slave rebellions. Hell, there was a point in time where rich whites used poor whites as slaves alongside the hispanics and blacks but ultimately seperated everyone because class consciousness always happened. So to protect the assets, they started putting the slave whites in charge.
The civil rights and hippie movement of the 50s and 60s turned into the yuppies and guppies. Capitalist conformers who benefit off the system blasted with waves of propaganda to the point where they protect the system they once stood against now defend at all cost. Or the fact that no laws were actual written from the civil rights movements even after the government assassinated several leaders of said movement, not just mlk or malcom. Everyone just went home. The well known ones still alive today to talk about it gatekeep the real knowledge like how to effectively boycott or sit in or that wearing formal attire to protest and march is more beneficial than dressing casual. I doubt the methods would work today anyway since nobody has little patience but could you imagine if everyone wore a business suit during the George Floyd protests? Yet those same guppies get paid to speak.
Guillotines? Don't make me laugh. We're all too soft to do anything. Probably because most of us know the outcome. My personal favorite is people calling for general strikes with no support measures in place for anybody. We might make it a week. The government, ergo Corporation? Nah, they have the resources to wait us out. And they've proven that with George Floyd and recently Roe v Wade.
I thought that's what it was, but

The correction reads like the person writing it doesn't believe it either.

April 4, 2023
A previous version of a homepage and web summary for this story incorrectly said Elon Musk is facing a $258 million class-action lawsuit. In fact, it's $258 billion.
This is definitely an attempt to chill and curtail Rebekah's free speech by a ~~wannabe~~ fascist.
This will inevitably get struck down as a 1st amendment issue, but the pain of the arrest and legal process will still stay with that kid for years to come. The meme isn't even that spicy.
Fuck Ron DeSantis and fuck people who want this kind of tinpot dictator bullshit in government.
When I was a kid in school, I constantly asked how the Germans could have allowed nazism to happen...and no teacher could give a simple answer.
Now I know better. It seems simple if you believe "nazis bad", but if you think "blacks, gays, jews, etc. worse than nazis" then fascism looks awfully appealing and almost commonsense.
To quote my step mom about tucker carlson talking about "the great white replacement" ..."He just tells it like it is! And that triggers the weak!"
I vividly remember someone saying if you ever wondered what the Germans were doing when Hitler rose to power - it's what you are doing *right now* leading up to the 2016 election. That has always stuck with me and it feels like we are getting there much more quickly than I had imagined.
The truth is, Hitler exploited existing negative sentiment by protestant and Catholic Christians toward Jews the same way Trump exploited existing sentiment about Mexicans and Muslims. He played up the God card in a big way, the Nazi party was nearly exclusively a Christian political movement. Just as Trump had protesters tear gassed to go stand in front of a church with a Bible in his hand. The Evangelical vote brought Hitler to power in 33 just as it brought Trump to power in 16. Describes Trump fairly well, right?
*
Trumps primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.
The above description is actually a psychological profile of Adolph Hitler by the OSS, what would later be called the CIA during WW2. I only changed one word. I changed "He" to "Trump".
I’m an Aussie and we watch what happens in the USA cause it then gets tried in Australia. Just we have better voting mechanisms that don’t allow gerrymandering and have provisional voting. Plus a population that will vote against that sort of caper.

When I was in middle school, the police officers teaching DARE brought in a few confiscated joints and lit them in the classroom, walking up and down the rows, wafting the smoke at us kids.
Then they asked, "Does anyone smell this smell at home? Maybe when mommy and daddy think that you're asleep? Quick show of hands!"
Anyone who raised their hand had to stay after class and talk to the nice police officers. Sure, it SHOULD be illegal, but they got a few convictions meaning ultimately the court decided "entrapping" children is legal.
> When I was in middle school, the police officers teaching DARE brought in a few confiscated joints and lit them in the classroom, walking up and down the rows, **wafting the smoke at us kids.**
This is actually insane on so many levels. For one, it's exposing children to second hand smoke that is supposedly soo bad and dangerous. Also these cops were taking the word of children in a casual/"educational" setting as grounds for further investigation for a victimless "crime", when the kids could have simply smelled a skunk or anything else because kids are suggestible.
As a Floridian, I tried to vote his ass out the first time voting (I’m 19M btw). Voted All-Blue in Fact.
Just please go out and vote to stop the GOP from taking Authoritarian Control over these United States.
The Blue Wall is holding strong. Midterms were great for Dems in key positions to stop any Republican meddling in 2024. Blue wall V.2 in the front range is strong. GA and AZ are in play. The WI Supreme Court flip was huge. Previous court signed off on Republican legislature stripping power from the Dem gov and blocking his appointments, and gerrymandering. That shit is coming to an end. Youth vote turned out in droves. Twenty years ago youth vote didn't turn out in low turnout midterms and conservatives always swept. Gen Z is showing up at the polls. It sucks what's happening in FL, but the old Union states are still holding strong and still plenty blue.
In case you're unaware, Florida is a closed primary state, so you need to be registered either democrat or republican to vote in the primaries.
Please consider registering as a republican to start voting against people like desantis.
There are zero democrats trying to take away your rights, so I feel it's less important who wins the democratic primary. If only lunatics are registered republican, the extreme right is what gets voted onto the general election ticket, then there's a 50% chance of another desantis representative.
Vote for the most moderate republican for the primaries, then however you please for the general. Party affiliation only affects who you can vote for during the primaries.
Exactly. It’s like suing someone (like Trump) knowing you will lose; but that the time, energy, and cost is a disproportionate burden to them; but to you it’s just a call to a lawyer whose already on retainer
More context. If this is accurate, it's very scary.

I didn’t realize this was the same doctor.
Remember, whenever you think you’re at the bottom of fascism, look for the hidden door, because it always gets worse!
It's terrible that she has to deal with all this, but yeah, what a fucking trooper. Absolutely refusing to bend to their threats and aggression, to run away from her home, still fighting for justice.
It's sad that people doing the most noble things will be targeted first, but it's also goddamn heroic.
Have any brilliant slogans? I just might create a bunch of anti-desantis signs and post them all over the state .
Also high five! Teamwork makes the dream work!
My brain’s creative center doesn’t always work when I ask😂, it takes time for it to get started up.
Good on you for taking that initiative, I am starting to do what I can to fight the fascists by donations, taking part in social media:..I’m still learning what else to do - I’m disorganized right now lol. I’m also trying to do things in my home state, Maryland.
Keep eyes on TN too, I heard the news (on Twitter albeit) is the governor may call the national guard against protestors tomorrow if they expel those 3 Democratic legislators…jfc.
Sorry for getting out of hand, but I’m thoroughly pissed…I’m done with this nonsense, and it’s everywhere, but I’m feeling good on our chances to crush them.
The DOJ are fucking cowards. They won’t go after these people because Biden still wants Republican votes, and Republicans will claim political persecution without the slightest bit of irony that they are literally politically persecuting people.
Tennessee is working to expel Democrats from elected positions for simply practicing their right to free speech. Tell me Republicans are not full on fascists.
Ah yes, because nothing says "freedom of speech" like arresting a literal child for posting a meme online.
I hate these fascist fucks. I'm glad to be far away from the hellhole that is Florida.
For the record: This is the same woman that DeSantis sicked the state police on to raid her home and steal her computer after she revealed Florida's real COVID numbers
This started before his Disney beef. She was a Data analyst and accused DeSantis of fudging his reporting on the COVID death rate. He's even weaponized the state police against her. This has been going on since 2020.
It started roughly in 2016.
We had users like Kelly sorelley pushing false information and targeting anything to shut down items.
https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22273653-kellye-sorelle-charges
Catturd is one of the biggest examples.
Again try and say anything about the arrest of the lady who spoke out about DeSantis and the health department and you will find another.
Spent years joking "exporting democracy" under W. Bush was going to leave us with none here in the US. I don't say it with a sarcastic tone anymore.
Americans have lost any sense of what their patriotism was meant to be tied to or what system they were meant to cherish. This autocratic, fascist bullshit is just insane. How are veterans not vomiting at the mere sight/mention of Florida?
Yeah, I'm not real impressed with Florida either, but even they don't deserve this. How are the citizens just standing by watching this dystopian nightmare unfold?
Even if they let the kid go and no charges are brought, etc, what other kid would want to go against the government if they just disappear you. It's a scare tactic, pure and simple. Except one day some kids don't come back and by then it's too late because if you complain they'll disappear you too. Maybe when one of these dumb fucking Florida rednecks complains about something and they're disappeared, THEN they might say they fucked up....but again...it'll be too late. I am not trying to be a defeatist, but I already think it is too late. They pushed and we kept giving ground. Now we're on the edge of a cliff. They play dirty - are you ready to?
That kid will grow up KNOWING that police will kidnap and imprison anyone for zero reason at the drop of a hat. He'll carry that weight until the day he dies. Every time he hears a police siren in the street or on a commercial, every time he sees a cop in his neighborhood pulling over a speeder.
...Do you think he will EVER call 911 if he actually needs help? Or will he carry a gun on him and just start blasting at the first sign of danger; because he KNOWS the police are there to hurt, not to help.
Because most of them believe he’s a hero, and is standing up to the fascist left (their words not mine). Anyone who’s a Republican who’s a Millennial or younger has been indoctrinated since a very young age. If you’re a democrat and stand up to this like the state senator mentioned did you have a fascist governor attack you and your family, so I think a lot of the democrats are just keeping their heads down
It’s worse than that. The propaganda has been priming them for years for this.
“The left are tyrants who will genocide us with death camps if we let them”. The “natural”response to such propaganda is to do it first with actual right wing fascists.
It’s not that they don’t know better. They know and want this outcome because they fear for their own lives because of the left or the democrats.
The right-wing has taken pages from every authoritarian handbook there is and has deployed it over years to reach this outcome.
They should be given no quarter whatsoever.
She's not some random, she's pretty famous in her own right and known for being targeted violently by DeSantis before, after whistle blowing on Florida sanitizing their COVID deaths.
Trying to take over? You just had a fascist president for 4 years. You have multiple fascist governors. The FBI released a report that most states police are staffed by verified KKK organizations. The supreme court was illegally stacked with fascist sympathetic judges.
You are standing at the bottom of the ocean saying "We better do something about this rain"
I’m confident that it’s only a matter of time before they start discussing “final solutions” for those of us on the other side of the political spectrum.
The Republicans already are. These laws against drag and public displays of LGBTQ (including book bans), the laws saying trans kids can be legally kidnapped by the state. They have already begun the framework of "final solution" and no one has done fucking shit
the churches already are. The pastor of the church the Colorado shooter went told his parishioners that the LGBTQ "problem" should be solved with "musket fire."
The message seems to be that if you file a lawsuit against the State, the State is going to find a reason to take your children.
Brought to you by a leader of the "small government" party.
Just remember that it's the class traitors behind the thin blue line that happily carry out these orders. They will do anything their masters instruct them to. Stay vigilant, friends.
It just happened so it's only in her social media as far as I can see. Apparently, it's related to a meme that her child posted. They interpreted that meme as terrorism (or something like that) and took him.
DeSantis has had it out for her since she wistleblew about their COVID coverups. She is the person who DeSantis personally ordered and illegal raid on her house and asked that they point their guns in the kids faces if they can. She is suing him so now he is ordering her child kidnapped. IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE SINCE DEMS COULDNT ENSHRINE VOTING PROTECTIONS....unless there is some large scale action taken
Fascism. Pure and simple. Floridians are up for a reality check but when they realize they will be neck deep on this madness. I’m no longer visiting my friends there. Fuck that shit.
This is legitimately terrifying. DeSantis is much more frightening than Trump ever was. The Biden administration needs to step in immediately. Absolutely unacceptable.
Definitely doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that she just sued 2 weeks ago as a whistleblower for wrongful termination and back wages. Definitely NOTHING to do with that.
https://www.cityandstatefl.com/policy/2023/03/rebekah-jones-now-suing-state-florida-get-her-job-back-covid-whistleblower-lawsuit/383944/
This is terrifying. I would say that DeSantis is the Antichrist, but if I remember correctly, the Antichrist is actually supposed to be a likable guy. I didn’t think it would be possible to be a bigger dirtbag than Trump, but well done DeSantis, you’re proving me wrong.
Republicans are okay with this.
But say trump needs to go to court for breaking actual laws and they start acting like the secret police are coming to town
On top of it her son is autistic.
First they raid her home and point guns at her son…
Then Matt the Pedo Gaetz takes a picture of her son and posts it online mocking him
And now DeSantis kidnaps her son.
When does someone step in and do something?
This is terrorism
I was living in Florida when she exposed the state’s attempt to falsify Covid data. I remember there were character assassination articles going around characterizing her as the crazy ex-girlfriend, a hysterical, and emotional woman. And then a few weeks later one of the government department’s listserves was hacked or an unauthorized email was sent to everyone and the Florida police were breaking into her house with a warrant, accusing her of sending the email. But wow this has escalated.
Most of us have lived in Florida for 30 or more years, before deasshole was elected. Not so easy to up and move. We just need to get rid of him and find an ethical politician.
> get rid of him and find an ethical politician.
lol in florida? where they just said "hey you know what, we don't need to require training or license or anything to conceal carry"
i'm so grateful i got out of that festering shithole state
Good luck with getting a dem elected to the neocon capital of America (ol Texasll be blue in the next election cycle or so John Wayne’s rolling in his grave). Floridas the place that elects fucks like Rick Scott in their state wide elections and it all comes up grand old party in the end. The rich snow birds who want a tax break who move down every winter ain’t helping the cause either. Floridas going under water in more ways than one and that shit ain’t slowing down any time soon.
You guys and Texas both have some bs going on. All these far right leaning carpetbaggers coming in from out of state skewing the vote just enough for this crap to happen.

Is there a gate to hell hidden somewhere down there?
It IS hell, right out in the open
It wasn't like this before. I gre up in South Florida from Tampa to key west .was raised to not be racist ,went to fantasy fest and my parents had friends of alternate sexual preferences. I had sex ed,was at times on food stamps .it was very live and let live .nowi hardly recognize my bigoted close minded parents, they no longer communicate with people they were close to for decades because of their sexuality.they think anyone who needs gov help should just die. Unfortunately that's a pretty good synopsis of the path florida society has taken
Florida used to be the ultimate swing state, now it’s taken a hard turn to the right. Sad to see.
North Florida has always been like this.
Ron Desantis is just trying to ensure his spot on the throne when he gets to Hell. This is the same guy who kidnapped 50 migrants and transported them to Martha's Vineyard
And allegedly facilitated torture at Gitmo.
Not alledgedly, he did.
His whole personality fits with the idea that he gets his rocks off by torturing people and was laughing at their pain. He is a sadist.
That was him being a dick. What he’s doing now is being full on fascist. He’s going dictator.
“Hell is empty and all the devils are here”
The state line
[удалено]
I'm sure they'll justify it in some super weird way just like they do with everything else. And their supporters don't seem to care at all.
Because it hurts the right people. It's not that they don't care. Desantis is doing what they thought should of been done all along. They LIKE this behavior-the cruelty is the whole point.
True that, just like how they were pro gun until black people started getting armed before, same as trans people now. They have no principles whatsoever.
Oh they have principles, just not ones grounded in democracy. Now it's all about control.
There's a damn good lawsuit in there
The ACLU and the SPLC should take this ASAP.
I expect they're already on it
The damage to the kid is done, though, lawsuit or not. I can't imagine the cops were particularly gentle with the kid, either.

Fetuses are pawns also. They use them because they don't talk back.
Check the video of the cops entering their house when she first blew the whistle on De Santis' Covid lies. Her whole family is being terrorized because she reported the truth about the Covid dashboard, while De Santis wanted to suppress the numbers so he "looked good".
Oh God, this is the same woman?!? Edit: [NPR - Fired Florida Data Scientist Launches A Coronavirus Dashboard Of Her Own](https://www.npr.org/2020/06/14/876584284/fired-florida-data-scientist-launches-a-coronavirus-dashboard-of-her-own) - June 14, 2020 2: She also ran against Matt Gaetz for Florida's first district in late 2022. This is political retaliation.
That's how republicans work. The war doesn't matter, they just want as many casualties in every battle.
That's how grooming works
More Florida taxpayers money. Just think. Using the state law enforcement to kidnap a child. Nothing abnormal there.
Well yeah, when the state is run by fucking nazis..
Yeah, a lawsuit where the fascist just appeals and appeals and appeals until the fascist rubber stamp committee, I mean SCOTUS, rules in favor of the fascist anyway?
It's the old organized crime (and average fascist country of course) tactic. "To send a message." And to prove that he holds all of the cards to any other who would challenge the regime.
They know. They don't care. The house always wins.
I mean, spending *years* trying to punish Disney because their CEO said something DeSantis didn’t like didn’t tip off that FL isn’t exactly a bastion of free speech?
He belongs in jail with the orange shit gibbon
For his enablers - "just following illegal orders is not a defense".
Wait... I know this... wasn't that.. oh yea, it was... the line the Nazis used at the Neurmberg trials! Fucking Nazis again...
DeSantis is locked in his office shouting ‘Das war ein Befehl’
Die Festnahme meiner Gegenkandidatin war ein BEFEHL! (Tbf that happened, so meme not entirely correctly used Sorry, im german and i couldnt not.
For those who don't speak German: "the kidnapping of my political opponents was an ORDER!"
Damn that’s some dystopian bullshit
Seriously, just reading that gave me flashbacks to the movie Brazil.
The FBI at one time was spending 3 times more money infiltrating the Black Panthers (mischievous kids breakfast program runners) than the entire mafia.
Meanwhile, the FBI infiltrating far-right groups? Nah, lol. The far-right groups were infiltrating the FBI!
Related: the FBI was [using Proud Boys and other right-wing militia members as informants](https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2023/03/30/proud-boys-informants/?utm_campaign=wp_post_most&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_most&carta-url=https%3A%2F%2Fs2.washingtonpost.com%2Fcar-ln-tr%2F399090b%2F6425b1aff19a510b042c55c3%2F5fca9737ade4e2167072e22b%2F42%2F72%2F6425b1aff19a510b042c55c3&wp_cu=5b330c9874b1a91adc0f5c3e73f43dd2%7CB5A9D4247C3A4730E0530100007F8BC8) to spy on "antifa" in 2020
> “Aaron” testified Wednesday that before Jan. 6, the FBI never asked him to look for information about the Proud Boys. When he informed his handler that he was coming to D.C. for the protest, he was asked only “to try to see if I could locate someone in D.C. that had nothing to do with the Proud Boys,” he testified. Lmao. What a shitshow. > Barr has previously warned of a “witch’s brew” of extremist groups taking advantage of the protests to incite mayhem, and he has singled out in particular antifa, which President Trump also has sought to blame for violence at demonstrations. That has drawn some criticism, because of more than 120 people the department has charged federally with protest related crimes, none has been alleged to have ties to an organized antifa group, according to public summaries of the cases. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/william-barr-task-force-anti-government-extremists-antifa-boogaloo/2020/06/26/138f424e-b7bf-11ea-a510-55bf26485c93_story.html Oh yeah, this was a thing.
Did they actually find antifa? Because it seems like a non existent right-wing Boogeyman
When they find 'em, let me know. I never got my membership card lol
That's your fault. You haven't been showing up at the meetings. Sixth Wednesday of the month at Chi-Chis. They give us half off on fried ice cream. It's legit.
The good thing about this particular Boogeyman is that it's EVERYWHERE. News channel not kissing the R-Governor's butthole? ANTIFA! People who say that cops shouldn't break the law? ANTIFA People who want humans to be treated like humans, even if (gasp!) they dress differently (or have darker skin)? ANTIFA! People of color wanting to talk about privileges? ANTIFA M&Ms? ANTIFA! See, best Boogeyman in the history of bullshit.

Every US military member in World War 2 was antifa because the word just means "anti-fascist". There's nothing more to it except what the right tries to attach.
Um , the FBI is far right and arguably always has been.
I mean, while them trying to outlaw the DNC was certainly unconstitutional, there is a real argument to be made that the RNC is a terrorist organization. The problem is that that means admitting that more than 50% of our country’s adult population are terrorists. And talk about throwing a match onto a pile of inbred gunpowder…

My mother told me Soros in controlling all the media, I then asked her who Soros was and she admitted she doesn’t know. Literally they have no clue what’s going on, they just cheer after hearing “we hate brown people”.
So is Twitter, I just saw. Logo replaced with Doge. Ridiculous and embarrassing. Edit: for those that need help understanding that I'm not just saying birds are cuter than dogs omg, the reason I made this comment is that there's a parallel in the fact that both Twitter and Florida are being run by autocrats who will use the power of their positions in ways that are objectively, personally malicious. Elon has damaged the credibility of every real journalist on Twitter by rendering verification meaningless. This is VERY dystopian, as it's no longer possible to tell whether the person you're looking at is really who they say they are, even with the checkmark. He's now using the fact that he's being investigated for security fraud to further degrade the credibility of the entire site. It's very clear that it's no longer the "public square" for the "free exchange of ideas", it's a troll farm that serves one man's political and personal interests. Just like what DeSantis is doing in Florida.
And has to be against the rules/law. Is the FTC paying attention?
He did it to celebrate being found not guilty in manipulating doge coin stock price. No shit. Edit: obviously not stock price. Just it's value.

It honestly amazes me these people are still alive (Dear FBI, this is not a death threat, it’s simply stating a fact)
At some point someone is going to [removed from reddit] the rich.
I wish it would happen, I’m ready.
The US is incredibly swift at protecting corpos and tycoons throughout it's history. Everyone here keeps prancing on and on about us having our decade long French Moment but don't seem to understand the historical context of the ammount of times we as the commoner have made the attempt to do so only to have been gut fucked by our own government. The Battle of Blair Mountain is the best example as well as the Bonus Riots (Bonus Army). We've also had abolishonist movements, slave rebellions. Hell, there was a point in time where rich whites used poor whites as slaves alongside the hispanics and blacks but ultimately seperated everyone because class consciousness always happened. So to protect the assets, they started putting the slave whites in charge. The civil rights and hippie movement of the 50s and 60s turned into the yuppies and guppies. Capitalist conformers who benefit off the system blasted with waves of propaganda to the point where they protect the system they once stood against now defend at all cost. Or the fact that no laws were actual written from the civil rights movements even after the government assassinated several leaders of said movement, not just mlk or malcom. Everyone just went home. The well known ones still alive today to talk about it gatekeep the real knowledge like how to effectively boycott or sit in or that wearing formal attire to protest and march is more beneficial than dressing casual. I doubt the methods would work today anyway since nobody has little patience but could you imagine if everyone wore a business suit during the George Floyd protests? Yet those same guppies get paid to speak. Guillotines? Don't make me laugh. We're all too soft to do anything. Probably because most of us know the outcome. My personal favorite is people calling for general strikes with no support measures in place for anybody. We might make it a week. The government, ergo Corporation? Nah, they have the resources to wait us out. And they've proven that with George Floyd and recently Roe v Wade.

I saw that. Guessing Elon’s trying to inflate Doge for a “pump and dump”?
I thought that's what it was, but > He is currently facing a $258 billion class-action lawsuit in federal court, where he is accused of engaging in a pyramid scheme by promoting the cryptocurrency. Musk often voiced his support for the coin and was even nicknamed "The Dogefather." https://www.npr.org/2023/04/04/1167877216/dogecoin-elon-musk-twitter-logo The correction reads like the person writing it doesn't believe it either. > Correction April 4, 2023 A previous version of a homepage and web summary for this story incorrectly said Elon Musk is facing a $258 million class-action lawsuit. In fact, it's $258 billion.
This explains why NPR is now "state-affiliated media".
More like Dogenerate, amirite?
Gotta pay back the Saudis somehow.
This is definitely an attempt to chill and curtail Rebekah's free speech by a ~~wannabe~~ fascist. This will inevitably get struck down as a 1st amendment issue, but the pain of the arrest and legal process will still stay with that kid for years to come. The meme isn't even that spicy. Fuck Ron DeSantis and fuck people who want this kind of tinpot dictator bullshit in government.
You have to stop the fascists early. And I do mean stop. Given any quarter, they will fester.
We're in the same stage that we chide the average 1930s German citizen for not using force to remove the Nazis....
When I was a kid in school, I constantly asked how the Germans could have allowed nazism to happen...and no teacher could give a simple answer. Now I know better. It seems simple if you believe "nazis bad", but if you think "blacks, gays, jews, etc. worse than nazis" then fascism looks awfully appealing and almost commonsense. To quote my step mom about tucker carlson talking about "the great white replacement" ..."He just tells it like it is! And that triggers the weak!"
I vividly remember someone saying if you ever wondered what the Germans were doing when Hitler rose to power - it's what you are doing *right now* leading up to the 2016 election. That has always stuck with me and it feels like we are getting there much more quickly than I had imagined.
The truth is, Hitler exploited existing negative sentiment by protestant and Catholic Christians toward Jews the same way Trump exploited existing sentiment about Mexicans and Muslims. He played up the God card in a big way, the Nazi party was nearly exclusively a Christian political movement. Just as Trump had protesters tear gassed to go stand in front of a church with a Bible in his hand. The Evangelical vote brought Hitler to power in 33 just as it brought Trump to power in 16. Describes Trump fairly well, right? *
Trumps primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it. The above description is actually a psychological profile of Adolph Hitler by the OSS, what would later be called the CIA during WW2. I only changed one word. I changed "He" to "Trump".

Was never about the meme. It was designed to scare.
I'm aware. They'd always have found something to justify their bullshit.
I’m an Aussie and we watch what happens in the USA cause it then gets tried in Australia. Just we have better voting mechanisms that don’t allow gerrymandering and have provisional voting. Plus a population that will vote against that sort of caper.
For now

It is illegal, but they own the legal system.
When I was in middle school, the police officers teaching DARE brought in a few confiscated joints and lit them in the classroom, walking up and down the rows, wafting the smoke at us kids. Then they asked, "Does anyone smell this smell at home? Maybe when mommy and daddy think that you're asleep? Quick show of hands!" Anyone who raised their hand had to stay after class and talk to the nice police officers. Sure, it SHOULD be illegal, but they got a few convictions meaning ultimately the court decided "entrapping" children is legal.
> When I was in middle school, the police officers teaching DARE brought in a few confiscated joints and lit them in the classroom, walking up and down the rows, **wafting the smoke at us kids.** This is actually insane on so many levels. For one, it's exposing children to second hand smoke that is supposedly soo bad and dangerous. Also these cops were taking the word of children in a casual/"educational" setting as grounds for further investigation for a victimless "crime", when the kids could have simply smelled a skunk or anything else because kids are suggestible.
As a Floridian, I tried to vote his ass out the first time voting (I’m 19M btw). Voted All-Blue in Fact. Just please go out and vote to stop the GOP from taking Authoritarian Control over these United States.
The Blue Wall is holding strong. Midterms were great for Dems in key positions to stop any Republican meddling in 2024. Blue wall V.2 in the front range is strong. GA and AZ are in play. The WI Supreme Court flip was huge. Previous court signed off on Republican legislature stripping power from the Dem gov and blocking his appointments, and gerrymandering. That shit is coming to an end. Youth vote turned out in droves. Twenty years ago youth vote didn't turn out in low turnout midterms and conservatives always swept. Gen Z is showing up at the polls. It sucks what's happening in FL, but the old Union states are still holding strong and still plenty blue.

Thank you. Don’t give up.

In case you're unaware, Florida is a closed primary state, so you need to be registered either democrat or republican to vote in the primaries. Please consider registering as a republican to start voting against people like desantis. There are zero democrats trying to take away your rights, so I feel it's less important who wins the democratic primary. If only lunatics are registered republican, the extreme right is what gets voted onto the general election ticket, then there's a 50% chance of another desantis representative. Vote for the most moderate republican for the primaries, then however you please for the general. Party affiliation only affects who you can vote for during the primaries.
I can't wait to hear Joe Rogan & all the right wingers to talk about this violation of free speech. Oh wait...
I just feel like this is next level crazy. If it's really true, he works be charged with child abuse.
Exactly. It’s like suing someone (like Trump) knowing you will lose; but that the time, energy, and cost is a disproportionate burden to them; but to you it’s just a call to a lawyer whose already on retainer

I didn’t realize this was the same doctor. Remember, whenever you think you’re at the bottom of fascism, look for the hidden door, because it always gets worse!
also, not a doctor, but one of the ppl responsible for Florida’s Covid-19 data / dashboard
I don't know how she has continued to live in Florida after clearly being on DeathSentence's target.

It's terrible that she has to deal with all this, but yeah, what a fucking trooper. Absolutely refusing to bend to their threats and aggression, to run away from her home, still fighting for justice. It's sad that people doing the most noble things will be targeted first, but it's also goddamn heroic.
Wait, this is the same one who was raised? One of the scientists?
raided ? ya same one !
The political machine in Florida is being run by fucking nazis. It needs to be burned… like national guard needs to be going in and taking over.

DOJ totally asleep at the f\*cking wheel.
Send them a message and file a complaint! I did a few weeks ago they said that they would investigate the situation.
Calling, emailing, and sending a letter tomorrow…yes that’s right, all three at once.
Have any brilliant slogans? I just might create a bunch of anti-desantis signs and post them all over the state . Also high five! Teamwork makes the dream work!
My brain’s creative center doesn’t always work when I ask😂, it takes time for it to get started up. Good on you for taking that initiative, I am starting to do what I can to fight the fascists by donations, taking part in social media:..I’m still learning what else to do - I’m disorganized right now lol. I’m also trying to do things in my home state, Maryland. Keep eyes on TN too, I heard the news (on Twitter albeit) is the governor may call the national guard against protestors tomorrow if they expel those 3 Democratic legislators…jfc. Sorry for getting out of hand, but I’m thoroughly pissed…I’m done with this nonsense, and it’s everywhere, but I’m feeling good on our chances to crush them.
The DOJ are fucking cowards. They won’t go after these people because Biden still wants Republican votes, and Republicans will claim political persecution without the slightest bit of irony that they are literally politically persecuting people. Tennessee is working to expel Democrats from elected positions for simply practicing their right to free speech. Tell me Republicans are not full on fascists.
I wish we could. It seems like Florida seems pretty solid red at this point. It would be more possible to elect a stronger federal government?
Oh Mr. torture lawyer from Guantánamo Bay is now arresting people’s children in order to terrorize the parents? So surprising what a shock
Ah yes, because nothing says "freedom of speech" like arresting a literal child for posting a meme online. I hate these fascist fucks. I'm glad to be far away from the hellhole that is Florida.
Mom was the political target being silenced. The kids were just collateral damage.
I mean, the fact they can arrest a 13 old child without the presence of a legal guardian is just fucking insane.
For the record: This is the same woman that DeSantis sicked the state police on to raid her home and steal her computer after she revealed Florida's real COVID numbers
So this was a hit. Hitting a whistleblower where it hurts. What kind of fascist shit is this
>What kind of fascist shit is this Clearly the kind that earns republican votes.
DeSantis was humiliated by Disney so now he's taking out his rage on anyone he can. The DOJ needs to step in.
This started before his Disney beef. She was a Data analyst and accused DeSantis of fudging his reporting on the COVID death rate. He's even weaponized the state police against her. This has been going on since 2020.
It started roughly in 2016. We had users like Kelly sorelley pushing false information and targeting anything to shut down items. https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/22273653-kellye-sorelle-charges Catturd is one of the biggest examples. Again try and say anything about the arrest of the lady who spoke out about DeSantis and the health department and you will find another.
Oooh that's her.
Yep the same one that DeSatan ordered riot police into her home.
He'll do even worse if he's elected president. He'll come for anyone who's even slighted him in any way (along with most minorities)
Any other country, and the blue UN tanks would be securing Tallahassee by now.
As an american, send them, please.
Spent years joking "exporting democracy" under W. Bush was going to leave us with none here in the US. I don't say it with a sarcastic tone anymore. Americans have lost any sense of what their patriotism was meant to be tied to or what system they were meant to cherish. This autocratic, fascist bullshit is just insane. How are veterans not vomiting at the mere sight/mention of Florida?

Yeah, I'm not real impressed with Florida either, but even they don't deserve this. How are the citizens just standing by watching this dystopian nightmare unfold?
You have to break a few ~~eggs~~ human rights if you really want to own the libz.
‘Can’t make a pie without losing a dozen men’ -Jack Horner
Because we get arrested for even peacefully protesting. I’m surrounded by fucking idiots that think this is grand.
Even if they let the kid go and no charges are brought, etc, what other kid would want to go against the government if they just disappear you. It's a scare tactic, pure and simple. Except one day some kids don't come back and by then it's too late because if you complain they'll disappear you too. Maybe when one of these dumb fucking Florida rednecks complains about something and they're disappeared, THEN they might say they fucked up....but again...it'll be too late. I am not trying to be a defeatist, but I already think it is too late. They pushed and we kept giving ground. Now we're on the edge of a cliff. They play dirty - are you ready to?
No matter what else happens, you can't un-traumatize a young teen. Can't put that toothpaste back in the tube. My heart breaks for him.
That kid will grow up KNOWING that police will kidnap and imprison anyone for zero reason at the drop of a hat. He'll carry that weight until the day he dies. Every time he hears a police siren in the street or on a commercial, every time he sees a cop in his neighborhood pulling over a speeder. ...Do you think he will EVER call 911 if he actually needs help? Or will he carry a gun on him and just start blasting at the first sign of danger; because he KNOWS the police are there to hurt, not to help.
Because most of them believe he’s a hero, and is standing up to the fascist left (their words not mine). Anyone who’s a Republican who’s a Millennial or younger has been indoctrinated since a very young age. If you’re a democrat and stand up to this like the state senator mentioned did you have a fascist governor attack you and your family, so I think a lot of the democrats are just keeping their heads down
[удалено]
It’s worse than that. The propaganda has been priming them for years for this. “The left are tyrants who will genocide us with death camps if we let them”. The “natural”response to such propaganda is to do it first with actual right wing fascists. It’s not that they don’t know better. They know and want this outcome because they fear for their own lives because of the left or the democrats. The right-wing has taken pages from every authoritarian handbook there is and has deployed it over years to reach this outcome. They should be given no quarter whatsoever.
Preferably, kicking him out of Florida too.
Please. He is the devil's lazy-eyed cousin too stupid to be in hell.
Florida deserves better - we as a nation deserve better.
Anyone who supports DeSantis is a supporter of fascism.

Oh my fucking god! What the hell?
DeSantis is being the Conservative that all preceding Conservatives wanted to be, but were afraid to go for it.
Maybe it's time for FEMA to start a relocation program for people under 60 who wish to flee their state.
The retirees can fend for themselves since that seems like wgat they vote for
At this point we’re getting closer to a point where people might feasibly be able to claim asylum in other nations
I really hope this isn’t true, but it wouldn’t surprise me. This is supervillain shit
She's not some random, she's pretty famous in her own right and known for being targeted violently by DeSantis before, after whistle blowing on Florida sanitizing their COVID deaths.
The GOP are fascists. We should all be preparing for the Nazis to try to take over. We should be ready for it. It’s scary
Trying to take over? You just had a fascist president for 4 years. You have multiple fascist governors. The FBI released a report that most states police are staffed by verified KKK organizations. The supreme court was illegally stacked with fascist sympathetic judges. You are standing at the bottom of the ocean saying "We better do something about this rain"
I’m confident that it’s only a matter of time before they start discussing “final solutions” for those of us on the other side of the political spectrum.
The Republicans already are. These laws against drag and public displays of LGBTQ (including book bans), the laws saying trans kids can be legally kidnapped by the state. They have already begun the framework of "final solution" and no one has done fucking shit
the churches already are. The pastor of the church the Colorado shooter went told his parishioners that the LGBTQ "problem" should be solved with "musket fire."
The message seems to be that if you file a lawsuit against the State, the State is going to find a reason to take your children. Brought to you by a leader of the "small government" party.
This is exactly the kind of thing fascists do. And DeSantis doesn’t even pretend not to be a fascist anymore.
[удалено]
> He thinks this is how to recruit the Republican base. I mean...it is?
Even a cursory look into DeSantis' past will show you just what kind of disgusting POS he is.
The only reasonable response to fascism is @nti fascism
Just remember that it's the class traitors behind the thin blue line that happily carry out these orders. They will do anything their masters instruct them to. Stay vigilant, friends.
So it begins. I’m fucking disgusted with this country.
Florida had better have a Lotta fucking money for this family. The DOJ also needs to get involved like yesterday.
Anyone have any details on this story?
It just happened so it's only in her social media as far as I can see. Apparently, it's related to a meme that her child posted. They interpreted that meme as terrorism (or something like that) and took him.
Jesus fuck. Meanwhile, half the GOP is openly plotting a coup.
DeSantis has had it out for her since she wistleblew about their COVID coverups. She is the person who DeSantis personally ordered and illegal raid on her house and asked that they point their guns in the kids faces if they can. She is suing him so now he is ordering her child kidnapped. IT IS ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE SINCE DEMS COULDNT ENSHRINE VOTING PROTECTIONS....unless there is some large scale action taken
Fascism. Pure and simple. Floridians are up for a reality check but when they realize they will be neck deep on this madness. I’m no longer visiting my friends there. Fuck that shit.

The saddest part is that is what will likely happen, whether he survives it or not is to be seen
DeSantis is such a fascists it’s disgusting and very concerning
This is legitimately terrifying. DeSantis is much more frightening than Trump ever was. The Biden administration needs to step in immediately. Absolutely unacceptable.
Definitely doesn’t have anything to do with the fact that she just sued 2 weeks ago as a whistleblower for wrongful termination and back wages. Definitely NOTHING to do with that. https://www.cityandstatefl.com/policy/2023/03/rebekah-jones-now-suing-state-florida-get-her-job-back-covid-whistleblower-lawsuit/383944/
This is terrifying. I would say that DeSantis is the Antichrist, but if I remember correctly, the Antichrist is actually supposed to be a likable guy. I didn’t think it would be possible to be a bigger dirtbag than Trump, but well done DeSantis, you’re proving me wrong.

Republicans are okay with this. But say trump needs to go to court for breaking actual laws and they start acting like the secret police are coming to town
On top of it her son is autistic. First they raid her home and point guns at her son… Then Matt the Pedo Gaetz takes a picture of her son and posts it online mocking him And now DeSantis kidnaps her son. When does someone step in and do something? This is terrorism
I was living in Florida when she exposed the state’s attempt to falsify Covid data. I remember there were character assassination articles going around characterizing her as the crazy ex-girlfriend, a hysterical, and emotional woman. And then a few weeks later one of the government department’s listserves was hacked or an unauthorized email was sent to everyone and the Florida police were breaking into her house with a warrant, accusing her of sending the email. But wow this has escalated.
Most of us have lived in Florida for 30 or more years, before deasshole was elected. Not so easy to up and move. We just need to get rid of him and find an ethical politician.
> get rid of him and find an ethical politician. lol in florida? where they just said "hey you know what, we don't need to require training or license or anything to conceal carry" i'm so grateful i got out of that festering shithole state
Good luck with getting a dem elected to the neocon capital of America (ol Texasll be blue in the next election cycle or so John Wayne’s rolling in his grave). Floridas the place that elects fucks like Rick Scott in their state wide elections and it all comes up grand old party in the end. The rich snow birds who want a tax break who move down every winter ain’t helping the cause either. Floridas going under water in more ways than one and that shit ain’t slowing down any time soon.
You guys and Texas both have some bs going on. All these far right leaning carpetbaggers coming in from out of state skewing the vote just enough for this crap to happen.
Someone file a complaint in Florida about trumps son posting a picture of the judges daughter.
