If we’re serious, I think the list is likely composed of left wing organizers, anti-ICE protesters, anti-Israel activists, etc. Republican Senators have said they are targetting organizations like PSL and Code Pink. Even DSA was named during the anti-antifa press conference that Trump held a few days ago.
What is the purpose of a terrorism watchlist? It is permission for the state to kill people on the list. What does the US do to ‘terrorists’? The US indefinitely detains ‘terrorists’ without trial. The US tortures ‘terrorists’ without trial. The US kills ‘terrorists’ without trial. Trump’s admin is creating a permission structure for the state to kill left wing activists.
Republicans are always doing projection. Accuse the enemy of the thing you are doing. Today for example, Trump accused China of sending letters to countries to limit trade, something that he bragged about doing.
After Charlie Kirk’s death, all of the Republican establishment pushed a single line of reasoning, “Leftists do violence and rightists do speech, therefore we have to suppress leftist speech with rightist state violence.” ex “The state has to be used to stop people from criticizing ICE deportations”. The accusation that leftists are violent gives permission to the rightists to be violent against leftist speech.
At the same time, right wing politicians and pundits have said that the label “fascism” is permission structure to kill. They claimed that calling someone a fascist puts that person in danger, because it permits violence against that person, dehumanizes. This is why Republicans claim that “antifa” is a terrorist organization. When we apply the logic that Republicans use projection to give themselves permission, it is clear that they want to use the terrorism label as a permission structure to kill people.
What is the purpose of a terrorism watchlist? It is permission for the state to kill people on the list.
It also allows the state to surveil people indefinitely without charging them with any actual crime. I presume it also makes warrants or whatever easier to get or circumvents that process somehow, although I don’t know that for sure.
i hope everyone here knows we’re probably on said list
