There is a term we don't want to use because to do so would be to admit something too awful to even consider. Yet it's time that we do. There is behavior going on in this country that is nothing less than the stuff of a police state.

What's that term then Marianne? Is 'police state' the scary word? Cuz that sounds like the PG version for 'domestic terrorists with the monopoly on authorized violence.'

And that's why @jimmy_dore is right about building a coalition against the FBI, and @ninaturner and her fellow TYTers are so wrong.

Big fan Marianne. We’ve been in a Police State for a long time now, it’s just getting harder for the establishment power to hide it

That was 20 years ago. This is worse.

Do you know of any other nation where they brag about having bars on their flag? Once upon a time, 13 stars would dance in a happy circle. Now overcrowding has 50 stars corralled into that same little pen all lined up in neat and orderly rows.

Not really. A Police State would be organized and purposeful. Police violence has non-state oriented causes. The reasons behind it need to be better understood and acknowledged.

And Biden just hired a 100k more & 84k irs agents. So what’s the goal here, crush the working class from all sides, starve and kill us? Having us live in such a heightened state of fear and stress we die younger and younger. This country is sick.

Biden attempted to institute a MINISTRY OF TRUTH DEPARTMENT and is now ushering in a police state "When democracies are no longer able to address constituent's needs & demands, authoritarians seize power. I’ve seen it time and time again," ~Ilhan Omar
