“traditional American views on religion” so do they mean like upholding separation of church and state, or not quite that traditional?
It’s the same contradictions all the way down the list.
“anti-capitalism”
So anyone who supports the government directly and arbitrarily interfering with private businesses? Like Trump is doing constantly?
“anti-Christianity”
So, anyone opposed to helping the poor and needy? Anyone who doesn’t treat foreigners with respect and kindness? Anyone who skipped over that whole “meek shall inherit the Earth” thing?
“support for the overthrow of the United States Government”
So, Trump and MAGA.
“extremism on migration”
Also Trump and MAGA.
“extremism on race”
Trump and MAGA.
“extremism on gender”
Trump and MAGA.
Wow this is anti-Semitic! How come no “Anti-Israel” in that list?
What would be considered extremism on migration or gender?
Whatever the ruling class decides. It is intentionally vague.
no borders, no gender.
Sounds radical to me, but not necesarily extremist
From the free speech party to the stop all speech I don’t like party at break neck speeds.
“When you are in power, I ask you for freedom, because that is according to your principles. When I am in power, I take away your freedom, because that is according to my principles” - Frank Herbert
Indica does not mean “indicators of violence” more clanker slop
“Indicia” is the correct word, “indica” is the cannabis species. They’re probably not fond of the latter.
Jeesus. Is this from some sort of official statement / quote from the US or? Would love to share the OG source with some folks I know who are still trying to pretend it’s not fascism 😓
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.
“The power and the greatness of the Ori cannot be denied. Those who reject the Path to enlightenment must be destroyed.”
Anti Christian is just the tip of the iceberg. Per Christian doctrine your soul is destined for damnation in hell if you don’t accept Christ as the only path to salvation. Why would your life matter if you’re going to hell anyways?
Extremist ends of the abrahamics are pretty similar.
Exclusionist ideologies (nonadherents are less human) that seek universal acceptance and adoption. Christianity and Islam both have particularly imperialistic histories. Zionists seems to be trying to catch up now though.
“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.
Extremism on migration, race and gender?
Well… that’s the GOP
I wouldn’t even deny that in a sense my views on “race” and gender are extremist, even if my first thought was the same.
Like, “it doesn’t matter people are individuals” is pretty much by definition on the extreme end.
(Well there’s also “it sadly did matter in the past and even if we instantly stopped all racism and sexism the results will linger so we should see what we can do to get closer to actual equality faster” but that seems like a different axis, even if to conservatives it probably seems “more extreme”)
Extremism depends highly on what you define as normal
Gives it away that “Christian white cis male born in the US” is what they think of as normal.
Hearing “anti-morality” from the child rapist is surreal.
In the land of the rapists, the woman with a whistle is the criminal
Traditional American views on morality? Don’t those involve a lot of rape and murder?
Yes, with a heavy sprinkling of debunked race science ie. white supremacy.
Darwin, in his exposition of survival of the fittest, wrote “civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace the savage races throughout the world”
Which was a culturally “normal” way of thinking in that part of the world at that time. Crazy that so much, and yet so little, has changed in 150 years.
It’s just a shot away,
It’s just a shot away.Only of those different to the imaginary ideal!
Well, usually. Sometimes they prey on their own, when the mood strikes.
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
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.
They think politics is just something people argue about for entertainment. Sadly, they are about to find out!
Hostility towards those who hold traditional American views on religion,
So, like, not separating church and state? Or not being an agnostic deist?
Believing in FSM as if it’s not equally ludacris as mainstream religion, basically being different
Are there actually any unironic Pastafarians? Statistically, there’d have to be a few, but Jesus the level of dumb that would require…
indica (indicator)
You and I have a very different idea of what “indica” implies.
Cannabis indica and Cannabis sativa are two types, or strains, of the cannabis plant.
For others, like me, who had no idea.
Where indica simply refers to the plant’s first collection (by Lamarck) in India and sativa means cultivated in Latin. Loads of plants have some conjugation of this species name:
Allium sativum (garlic)
Coriandrum sativum (coriander / cilantro)
Crocus sativus (saffron crocus)
Cucumis sativus (cucumber)
Eruca sativa (rocket / arugula)
rocket
Wut
I believe it’s a UK name for arugula. They frequently express the same bafflement for cilantro.
TIL! Thanks for this
I’m pretty sure the original text had it spelled “indicia”
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.
Imagine this whole time they meant a specific native-american tradition by that.
