🧨👢 They Spit, We Hit: Trump’s New “They’re Eating the Pets!” Panic Slogan… Welcome to the next phase of Trump’s fascist fever dream—where slogans aren’t just crass, they’re policy. “They spit, we hit,” he said, smiling like he just solved the Middle East. But this isn’t about spit. This is about conditioning the public to accept brute force as justice, war paint as patriotism, and vengeance as leadership. It’s not a press conference—it’s a green light for violence. A regime doesn’t need robes and medals when it’s got boots, tear gas, and a mantra dumb enough to chant on a bumper sticker. The protests in Los Angeles weren’t a threat to national security—they were a threat to Trump’s narrative. That’s why tear gas was launched without warning. That’s why peaceful chants were met with military-grade suppression. The federal government didn’t de-escalate—they escalated. They didn’t warn—they ambushed. And when Trump grabbed a mic to spit out “they spit, we hit,” it wasn’t a policy—it was propaganda, very reminiscent of his old “they’re eating the cats, they’re eating the dogs, they’re eating the pets” fear-fueled lunacy. It’s always the same formula: dehumanize, then brutalize. This wasn’t crowd control. It was a live demonstration of their authoritarianism. From Mariachi Plaza to the detention center, the message was clear: obedience or pain. Let’s talk about that line again: “They spit, we hit.” Sounds like something from a frat house fight, not a president. But that’s the point. Trump knows his base isn’t tuning in for nuance—they’re tuning in for dominance. He paints protestors as savages—spitting, throwing things, “doing worse”—all to justify what comes next. And what’s next might be the Insurrection Act, with active-duty Marines taking orders from a man who gets confused by stairs. And look who’s echoing it: JD Vance, calling the protestors “insurrectionists.” Stephen Miller—yes, that Stephen Miller—calling it a “violent insurrection.” Hegseth all but polishing boots for the Marines at Camp Pendleton. They’re laying the legal groundwork, the semantic groundwork, and the emotional groundwork for martial law. Not just in California—but wherever resistance shows up next. Because make no mistake—this isn’t a Los Angeles issue. This is a test. A field drill in fascist optics. Trump’s not waiting for an actual insurrection. He’s manufacturing the optics of one—baiting protesters, provoking chaos, then playing the victim while the cameras roll. It’s the same script he ran with BLM, with Portland, with Lafayette Square. Only now, the stakes are higher, and the troops are closer. This is what fascism looks like in its early stages: weaponized grievance, cartoonish slogans, and a violent state response to moral resistance. If you’re in the streets, stay calm, stay protected, and document everything. They want a reaction. They want an excuse. Don’t give them one. But don’t go silent either. Silence is surrender. And they’re counting on you to be too scared or too cynical to show up. 🗽🕊️ If you find value in this work, please consider supporting it. This isn’t my full-time job—yet.

It is the first time a secretary of defense has failed to show up for a meeting of the group, which was created by the U.S. to coordinate military aid to Ukraine. Perhaps he was too busy trying to decide which American civil rights leader's name and history to erase next." -Dan Rather' 5h 25
