The Chilling Consequences of Going Along With Trump
The Chilling Consequences of Going Along With Trump
The voluntarily surrender of the public’s power is how autocracies are built.
Disobey in advance: Put up a pride flag (even if there's no LGBTQ folks in your home). Hand out banned books to children (and especially tell them it was banned!). Hire some minorities. Tell kids that religions that preach hate aren't cool.
Point it that billionaires never have normal people's best interests in mind. That no one should ever be that rich. That earning any income outside of a presidential salary is unconstitutional and downright corrupt.
Tell them that Elon Musk is an illegal immigrant. That selective enforcement of the law is evil. That the people that voted for Trump won't be spared. That fascism will end up taking away everyone and everything they love. That it will corrupt their favorite institutions. That it will turn their children against them and break up their families. That making desperate enemies of every day people leads to endless violence.
Don't shut up about it either.
Add in a bit of their self-interest. Every dollar you earned but don't have, is a dollar stolen by your freeloading bosses/shareholders. Because they certainly didn't earn it. Why do they have a mansion and a Ferrari? You should at least be able to afford rent.
Google Translate says that reads “Even Our Faces Got Eaten.”
