Totally normal to suggest a ban on pregnant foreigners, the forced sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry, and the dissolution of the United States, when the supreme court doesn't rule in in your favor.

It is time for us to shift the Overton window back with opposite and equally absurd proposals.

We need to open foreign maternity centers so that we can grow the number of US citizens.

    They're doing that anyway. To fight the Overton window, you have to go extreme. It doesn't make sense, but Newton's laws of motion apply here. An object opinion in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an equal and opposite force opinion.

    Being passive and worrying about pushing away the people who were already running away from us of their own accord is what got us in this situation in the first place. This is a tug of war game and we've been letting them pull the rope away from us for decades, all for the sake of showing them how friendly we are as they laugh at our naivete. A con man isn't conning you because you did something to upset them, they're doing it because they're a con man.

    Yea yea, insane sterilization comment. But y'all he wants to literally break up the United States.

    I’ve been saying this for a while, but it’s still relevant. You need to view US politics under the lens of professional wrestling.

    Of course they print this, and of course you’re going to hate it. That’s the entire point. These absurd people saying hateful things are the heels, you’re supposed to hate them. It also makes you like the faces even though they’re lackluster. Posting articles like these online in some sense of (lazy) advocacy or “staying informed” simply reinforces the worldview they’re pushing. It’s all propaganda.

    It’s all propaganda.

    It's why even though I do hate and blame the greedy narcissistic assholes that run the government, the ones I hate THE MOST are the propagandists.

    Without pieces of shit like Sean Hannity and to a slightly lesser extent every other corporate media outlet the greedy narcissistic assholes wouldn't be able to thrive in the way that they do and we might actually be able to live in the same "reality" as the rest of the population instead of being fed different versions of reality to fight over.

    I'd love to see the propagandists put in front of a firing squad. Air that shit for ratings, corporate fucks.

    The media needs to call out the crazy people. Everyone has a platform online, which means that crazy people feel validated. Just because someone has a hundred thousand followers doesn’t make them an authority, and the media needs to be critical in what they promote

    But emotional responses make clicks. Angry and scared emotional responses make more clicks. And clicks are the only thing that matters to these people.

    It even precedes it by a few decades. This is the first link I found https://ukdhm.org/forced-sterilization-policies-in-the-us-targeted-minorities-and-those-with-disabilities/

    The United States was an international leader in eugenics. Its sterilization laws actually informed Nazi Germany. The Third Reich’s 1933 “Law for the Prevention of Offspring with Hereditary Diseases” was modeled on laws in Indiana and California.

    You should know that the US Supreme Court ruled in Buck v. Bell that the government has the authority to sterilize citizens. A case that has never been overturned.

    We've seen how these people feel about non-citizens, so they wouldn't think twice before extending that to them as well.

    Authoritarianism is an admission of abject weakness.

    White supremacists are the weakest and most brittle snowflakes.

    A healthy, broadly educated population, which feels safe and secure, is incompatible with, and toxic to, conservative and authoritarian ideologies.

    They need you to be sick, stupid, and scared.

    Critical Thinking Skills are the most important thing a student can learn, and it should be the primary objective of every student's education. Critical Thinking Skills are the best defense against propaganda, which is why the MAGA party is against it.

    Even though it is how humans are supposed to think properly, the Right has actually claimed that it is bad for students, because it encourages them to question authority figures. To normal people, that's a good thing, but for MAGA, it's terrible. They demand undying loyalty and obedience. There is no room for Critical Thinking Skills.

    I don’t think it’s a great idea to equate racism and nationalism with mental illness, considering it’s clearly not disabling in any way and sort of dodges accountability for those perpetrating it.

    It's not the racism or nationals that is the mental illness, it's the belief in a Death Cult that worships torture, death, cannibalism, human sacrifice, zombies, and more. Their logo is their imaginary hero being tortured to death. They're so worried about children finding out that men and woman have different genitalia, yet they force kids to stare at, and even pray to, an image of a man being brutally tortured to death.

    There is also OCD that manifests as uncontrolled financial hoarding. Instead of cleaning up their hoard, they are encouraged to hoard even more, and the government even gives them more.

    Those two mental illnesses are causing massive damage to global society, but especially in the United States, where high level people suffering from both those illnesses are in control of this country.
