It was bad last time, but people are going off the deep end this time. People are screaming that we need to bring deported gangsters back into the country. "Due process," they say, but everyone we sent out had a fucking deportation order. They say we're in a constitutional crisis because they don't like Trump following the letter of a SCOTUS order instead of what media fucks insist it meant. RFK starting an initiative to study the increasing rate of Autism is literally being framed as a "disabled person registry." Board gaming companies are suing because they can't take advantage of predatory Chinese industrial practices; framing themselves as victims rather that the very same exploitative capitalists they claim to want to eat. Its getting wild out there.
The good news is they are a very loud minority given how many ACTUALLY support Dems and media doing shit like demanding illegal gangsters returned to the US.
The bad news is this is the extremist side so the only option to deal with them is either wiping them out or re introducing insane asylums.
