extremism on migration, race, gender

Like Trump administration???

[–] MBech 9 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Nonononono, the other extremism. You know those extreme psychos who like immigrants, black people or even (pause for effect) trans people.

Yea, love is extremism now.

I can at least understand what's being said by a few of these, but do we have an official, on the books, definition for what constitutes "extremist" views, or what "traditional American values" are in this context?

I'm guessing not, because I'm not sure they know what any of that actually looks like anymore.

They think they do, but they keep the wording vague in their official statements because these rules are not to preserve American culture or their way of life, it's all vibe based. I don't like you so let's see which of these vague statements I can attach to you so that you get in trouble that you literally cannot afford to get out of....

The entire point of vague shit like this is that they can use it to justify going after whoever they want.

Vibe-based assaults on people's rights are a traditional American value

Oh, they know when they see it. Its anything that isn't blindly falling in line with the party line. Simple as.

Traditional american values to maga: lobotomies, slavery, ownership of women, murdering people for their land, and polluting everything.

Ah yes, anti-Christianity. The founding fathers would be proud!

"overthrow of US government"

Lol no. That's what traitor trump is doing. They're attempting DARVO lmfao. Fuck this dumb list lol. It's a patriotic duty to oppose tyranny. If you support this dictator, you are a traitor.

A reminder: To fundamentalist christians, the moment you hear about Jesus Christ, yet decide to not convert, you're anti-christian until you do so.

Change "anti-christianity" to anti-religion and I'd have a perfect sweep.

I'm low-key relieved that it wasn't the first one. Like...the list is garbage. Don't get me wrong.

But it would have been telling if it was the first bullet.

[–] FireRetardant@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I love how vague this is. Extremism on gender is entirely up to the reader to decide the definition. To some people 2 genders is extremist and hateful, to others anything except 2 genders is extremist and also somehow hateful.

[–] skisnow@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 week ago

"traditional American views" is a terrifying phrase for a Government to be using. It's so heavy with euphemism it's almost ready to burst.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Right, the ones in power get to define it.

The ones in power also define all of those things as any legal or illegal attempts to remove the ones in power from power.

They also think they're clever

Traditional American views on morality? Don’t those involve a lot of rape and murder?

[–] ReginaPhalange@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

It's just a shot away,

My family seems eager to visit the US. Meanwhile, there's the list of reason's I'd rather not.

I would get ICE'd so fast

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I overheard my parents and brother talking about wanting to visit Mainland China, departing from the US where we live now, seemingly not worried about the return trip back to the US and having to deal with customs, and we aren't white, also on top of that, my brother is anti-CCP, and have talked about the Taiwan issue while parent's Wechat with microphone permissions are active.

Like... lmfao, they are gonna get fucked by two governments.

Man I love being an enemy of Trump. Can't wait to piss on his obituary.

[–] kadaverin0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Pro-America

Pro-Christianity

Pro-"Traditional Values"

Pro-Capitalism

Suggesting there is a middle path approach to issues of racism, misogyny, and homo-/transphobia.

Sounds like a fucking dork to me.

Hostility towards those who have traditional views on family sounds like a bullshit way to say "doesn't like homophobes."

[–] Flamekebab@piefed.social 7 points 1 week ago

Judge a man's character by the quality of his enemies.
