The Trump administration is drawing up “secret lists of terrorist groups inside the United States,” Senator Elissa Slotkin said on the floor of Congress yesterday — the first such reference to the effects of National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7). The directive, as I’ve reported, lays out Donald Trump’s policies with regard to equating “anti-Christian” and “anti-capitalist”…
…
“The Trump administration define[s] domestic terrorism incredibly broadly,” Slotkin said. “It suggests that any group that talks about anti-Christian values, views they don’t like on migration or race, differing views on the role of the family, religion, or morality could all be grounds for labelling an organization as domestic terrorists.”
I wrote an angry text to one of my MAGA senators while really high. I fully expect to be on a list.
No one cares, especially the USA citizens. If they really cared Trump would be out yesterday.
I really hope that all this bullshit shows just how bad many ‘anti-terrorism’ laws were and see them all be repealed.
None of us will be on this list.
If there are protestors or critics that is even more reason a good president should be listening to their concerns, even if he doesn’t agree with them. Not trying to make enemies out of them.
Like the entire voter registry of democrats?
What good is a “watchlist” if its 80+ million names long?
It’s fine, they’ll start crossing off names until it is a manageable.
They already have the camps and a secret police. All they need now is the Zyklon B to start really crossing off names.
I assume no one in the Trump admin knows wtf Lemmy is, so we’re safe here maybe.
Secretly, Americans have been developing a watch on trump.
“Senators warn…” Do something!
Yeah you’re the most powerful piece of the government. Lay it all out and impeach
Impeach? Like they already did twice? They are warning us because they know the mechanisms of accountability are not within their reach.
“Trump back handed by senators, diplomatically”
Jesus said that if someone asks for your coat, you should give your cloak to them also. IDK guys, that sounds pretty anti-capitalist to me.
what exactly about this is NEW news?
fuck they probably have me on a watchlist and I’m not even american
Perhaps a problem is that nobody is surprised anymore.
If you dont jump when a loud noise goes off anymore, you might not get out of the way of what makes it.
Maybe fake it til you make it. Act shocked about it and tell coworkers that you’re terrified.
Or just read one of the forefathers’ diaries, see if they managed to articulate the tipping point that began the slope towards revolution and attempt to replicate it?
(I’m speaking generally about this situation, I’m not an american either)
Watch dez nuts bitches.
I have lists of lists. We have the best lists there are!
If a list is of virtually everyone it stops being a useful list.
Geogia Guidestones. Do the maths.
It starts being an excuse to disappear anyone you don’t like.
This is the problem. A list you can’t see, a list that contains assumed infractions you can’t defend against, in a system of masked police that will never give you a chance at due process.
Exactly. Americans are all now Palestinians.
"A little-discussed detail in the Lavender AI article is that Israel is killing people based on being in the same Whatsapp group [1] as a suspected militant [2]. Where are they getting this data? Is WhatsApp sharing it?
Lavender is Israel’s system of “pre-crime” [3] - they use AI to guess who to kill in Gaza, and then bomb them when they’re at home, along with their entire family. (Obscenely, they call this program “Where’s Daddy”)." source
Of course WhatsApp is sharing it. Everyone should move to truly secure—or even just more secure, like signal—means of communication. WhatsApp is Facebook. They will do whatever helps their bottom line
