Are we there yet?

A video title caught my eye “don’t get tracked” and I didn’t even have to look to know they were talking about the USA. Just a few years ago I would have wondered, which country is doing this now? Today, I no longer wonder, the US has become indistinguishable from any of the countries where suppression is the norm.

We have underground networks for women for abortion pills and contraceptives

States that have laws against using highways to get to abortions

Masked enforcement grabbing people off the streets

Traps to kidnap legal immigrants and ship them off

History papers, sites, buildings being cleansed

US citizens being warned to cleanses their social media of anti trump posts

US citizens being detained, searched and questioned at points of entry

Tourists being detained and jailed over flimsy or non-existent claims.

Women being jailed and prosecuted for miscarriages

Children being harassed because they “look trans” whatever that means

Cops planting evidence on people (ok that’s not new but it led to here also)

Elected officials openly defying court orders

Schools being monitored for descent

Law firms being threatened unless they agree to outrageous conditions

10K being offered to tell on others

Government institutions being used to track dissent voices

Town halls with police to tase those who dare question

People being dragged out of town halls by unknown persons

Planned registration for pregnant women

Books being banned

Words being banned

Voting being restricted (more than in the past)
