It was just a general sentiment but he’s definitely going to try. And if his party supports him through all the protests then the best defense of Democracy is indeed going to be voting him out.
I went to check it out. It’s 100% real.
Now they’re trotting out reports they’ve miraculously found of him being a human trafficker.
Hi. Long time therapy winner here. So first things first, you should absolutely talk to a therapist, not just take pills. The second thing you need to do is figure out your preferred grounding mechanism. This is usually going to involve one your senses, sight, touch, smell, hearing, taste, or breath. (Even though breath isn’t a traditional sense)
I know people who keep pine bark on a necklace, I know people who list 5 things of a particular color near them, and I know people who listen to a song. Usually breath is combined with whatever else you’re doing. Both as part of grounding and to cue your brain to pay attention to the sense you’re using.
A therapist can help you figure what works for you to get you back from panic attacks as quickly as possible. And you are absolutely not alone.
This is an entirely different approach than most people are used to. My advice from a couple of combat deployments is to cultivate a task oriented mindset. What does that mean? It means worrying about the task you are doing right now and nothing else. That doesn’t mean you never look at the bigger picture. But if you’re at dinner, then you’re at dinner and you enjoy that. You can check when the next protest is, after dinner. You take each day like this and before you know it we’ll be voting Trump out of office.

Almost like this is a canned response for any allegation of ICE detaining Puerto Ricans. Because to be clear, a simple Google search reveals there are multiple allegations of multiple instances.
No amount of sane washing is going to push this under the rug.

In some countries they’re more worried about protecting the privacy of the accused. In other countries they identify the accused because they’re worried about people being disappeared.
Maggoty@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•‘The Homegrowns Are Next’: Trump Promises to Send American Citizens to El Salvador in Harrowing Comments to Bukele21·10 days agoDude. He’s already breaking the laws by sending people directly to CECOT. He’s ignoring court orders and the need to get an order of removal for people. They’re arresting people just for speaking Spanish without having a passport on them, like that Puerto Rican family.
If they’re ignoring all the rules for people who can’t pony up citizenship paperwork in time then there’s nothing stopping them from quickly deporting a natural born citizen. Hell, anyone on the street without documents on their person is a valid target under the observed tactics.
They are not being honest with you.

I got news for you buddy, this isn’t the kind of thing just a few people can fix. The country actually elected him. We need to build a movement to fight this, to prevent the country from just electing the next one.

That’s not policing that’s a fucking execution.
Maggoty@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•The poop psa absolutely no one asked for1·12 days agoPork loin is 7 dollars a pound. Ground beef is cheaper. Chicken or tofu are by far the cheapest proteins.
And I’m sorry but you cannot survive on spinach, oranges, pork, rice, and beans. Not to mention that rice is a 20 minute cook and dried beans take literal hours.
You can’t just say something is cheap when the knock is time, money, and mental energy. You sound like those yuppis born into money, just telling people to buy a house to get on the financial freedom train.
It won’t take a super long time either once they plonk the “national security needs” tag on it to make it immune to impact assessments and such.

Maggoty@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Freak sell-off of ‘safe haven’ US bonds raises fear that confidence in America is fading9·14 days agoIt’s more like we came out of WW2 up by 10 because the other teams got decimated. As the decades have gone on they’ve rebuilt their teams and scored some goals so while we kept scoring, they were catching up. This is actually the natural process where a rebuilt Europe was expected to eventually equal the US.
But Trump just blew up the scoreboard and now everyone is wondering if we’re even still playing the same game.
This is also blatant misinformation. No judge ever made a finding that he was associated with MS-13. The government asserted it in court but it’s never been proven. The immigration proceedings largely revolved around his asylum application, interview, and testimony.
So they’re lying in an attempt to make it sensational enough to bust past due process. For an example of how that looks long term, check Duterte’s regime in the Philippines. Many people were killed extrajudicially and written off as drug dealers.
