Long overdue. America should’ve been added to a human rights watch list decades ago.
Hey America, how’s it going?
Oh shit.
…along with Italy (I am Italian and I support this due to our fascist government acting, well, fascist), Serbia (no shit), Pakistan (I am ignorant about this one) and the Democratic Republic of Congo…
…how is the DRC not in that list since forever, seriously!?!
… at least 8 years late
Overdue
We should have been added when we supported a genocide in the modern era. Its hard to imagine when we will ever live that down. We join the likes of Nazi Germany and Israel with that one. Who needs republicans when we have zionists in charge of the DNC.
We put on a great show though for awhile. Glad everyone’s seeing Americas fake. Regardless of trump, America’s human rights were/are pay to play.
This, if anything I am begging people to not only ignore America’s authority, but to liberate us from our “masters”
Number 1 leader in human rights violations well before UN definitions, since it’s creation
USA is on a steep, purposeful decline.
Fucking awful
Good, at least someone is paying attention.
watching alone isn’t enough
A couple of centuries late. Even if we’re only talking about their own citizens.
Reminder that slavery is still conditionally legal in the constitution (13th Amendment)
better late than never, i guess.
Yeah, although on the other hand, it makes me skeptical of that specific watchlist.
Genuinely… It wasn’t before???
Cool, where can I flee to?
It depends.
Are you:
A. a rich person that have a lot of money ready to be invested in another country?
B. a “skilled worker”?
C. have close relatives in the target country to sponsor you?
D. be able to marry someone of another country? (EU allows same-sex marriage, you have… options… 😉)
E. have a claim to citizenship via jus sanguinis?
Otherwise, I’m sorry, you’re stuck in here. 👀
I think I have a claim of jus sanguinis, but its People’s Republic of China… so nah I’ll pass.
I understood what jus sanguinis meant from context but oh my god does that sound gross. I never knew it was called that.
It makes me think of like a drippy blue rare stake which like, delicious, but also not how I’d want to claim my heritage.
Fine, male mail order bride it is. No kiss on mouth!
That’s what I am thinking!! I legit am a human without a state if “Mango Mussolini” in fact revokes the 14th amendment! Even thought Drumpf and Elon came here ILLEGALLY when my dad came here with a sponser from a church and became a citizen right away! GIVE ME MY TAX MONEY BACK THEN from 15-35 years on… if not then I am an American! I pay taxes and born with a SS# so wtf! If not GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK or F off! Like Drump said about egg prices, “shut up!”. From the douche lord himself!
FUCK AMERICA; WE ARE FUCKED! (New motto)
But really, where would I go?!?!
I once camped at a hick RV park on a lake. One of the RV’ers had erected a flag pole that had an American flag and below that a flag that read, “WELCOME TO THE SHIT SHOW.”
I think those flags should always fly together.
I would say come here to Canada, but… 🤷♂️
You guys should build a wall.
Seriously, don’t even let me in. It would just be a matter of time before I fuck something up
As an American I kind of agree.
well yes but have you considered that he’s the group laws protect but do not bind, and you’re part of the group laws bind but do not protect?
most you’ll get out of these fuckers is a free camping trip. or really satisfying revenge.
Washington’s governor has stated that women and trans rights will be upheld against the federal government’s policies. It’s not fleeing, because we’re fighting.
Him and what financial army? US discrimination is insidious because it’s mostly done financially. For example most gender-affirming healthcare is not covered by insurance so you have to be in big debt or already rich just to survive.
Gender affirming care is covered by a lot of insurance in Washington.
Smart choice.
“I’m going to embarrass this country in ways you’ve never thought of.” - dRumph, maybe
Great. I love that for us. I always said they’d let you keep your guns as a distraction and dismantle all your other rights right from under your nose
Yep… And of course the guns you get to keep are water guns compared to the firepower the gov and military get to own. Your desert eagle hangun vs the Apache helicopter with huge canons and guns and missiles …
While the “Who would win Batman or Superman or US army” posturing is interesting to some…I have been finding fewer and fewer reasons to expect a military confrontation.
We saw one during the George Floyd protests - Trump sent the National Guard to quell protestors. It…didn’t do much, and the Guard sort of stood around, acknowledging free speech.
I have also read testimonials from those in the Army - while it is true that the (incompetent) very top new leadership, and many grunts are die-hard MAGA, the vast majority of the leadership structure is disciplined and educated in the constitution. There’s supposedly already been briefings delivered on “DEI” subjects that indicates the officers are still very vocally in support of them, and they in turn are still loyally respected by their units. In short: An attack within America against Americans would feel blatantly against what most of them stand for.
ICE, on the other hand, is a fringe set of whackjobs - and thankfully they’re mostly cowards that only accomplish much by stealing in and out like burglars.
Anyone on here who shouts for civil war or revolution has never watched 2 dozen Apache helicopters approaching them ready to go. Normal, untrained, unequipped citizens stand no chance. It’s either going to be a bloody resistance, think northern Ireland, or guerilla war, think Vietnam.
Or, any coup against the US gov would need to get the military aligned against current structures… That also leads to a military controlled gov…think burma.
No of these are good options unless you are facing extreme circumstances with no other hope
Honestly a little surprised it took this long, if only for the guns alone.
