It's crystal clear they'll soon start widespread criminalization of everything they deem liberal (woke, dei, lgbtq, etc).
If you're an educated professional in America ((STEM)), you should be making moves to get the fuck out and brain drain the fascist dictatorship, because they will come for you sooner than later; especially when the economy collapses and they realize their best and brightest are fleeing to former allies en mass.
Don't forget wearing glasses.
I see I'm not the only one who's mind has drifted toward Pol Pot. I truly hope the anti-intellectualism in the US doesn't reach that degree, but honestly, I don't know how surprised I would be at this point.
Thankfully if it comes to that there are easy work around. Men could switch to prescription sunglasses and act cool, women can tie their hair tight and play the librarian kink angle. Maga will never see thru the ruse. (C'est pas parce qu'on rit que c'est drôle)
I get what you're saying, but there's no need to exclude the humanities from this. In fact, between this Yale prof and the way Columbia gave in to the administration's demands, it looks like STEM profs haven't yet been targeted in the same way.
They don’t even need to criminalize your conduct to indefinitely detain / deport you, and you might be deported to a country with even less due process / human rights protections.
It’s an important distinction, because it means they don’t have to criminalize things that their allies also do in order to catch their intended targets.
Once they've found they can ignore the courts to just kidnap and disappear anyone they don't like from immigrant populations, what's to stop them moving on to US citizens? Fascists aren't known for their restraint.
