minus-squareyetAnotherUser@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down2·6 days agoIllegality has layers though. Right now they’re merely probing the waters and seeing how much pushback there is from the judicative. That’s rather tame compared to Hitler’s first months, where the nazis centralized all power under them. The US has had multiple local elections as well, while all free elections vanished the moment Hitler had the power to do so. So I’d argue the US is somewhere around 1932. Not everything is lost just yet but you’re moving ever closer to the point of no return.
