Slavery was no big deal.

135

u/LegislativeLariat Wisconsin 8d ago

Fun fact, it's still legal for the US government to take slaves and Representatives like Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) have been talking about taking undocumented immigrants and enemies of the Trump administration and using them as slave labor as they have 'committed crimes'.

The Thirteenth Amendment:

  • Section 1

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

  • Section 2

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

22

u/Professor-Woo 8d ago edited 8d ago

I believe this is far more likely than people expect. Basically, turn undocumented labor into slave labor (or to "pay off" their prison costs).

u/greenskinmarch 8d ago

Another form of legally sanctioned slavery is conscription. For example Putin has enslaved millions of Russians to fight in Ukraine and about a million of those slaves have already died on the job.

Everyone knows Putin is a war criminal to Ukraine but if you consider conscription as slavery he's a war criminal to Russians too.

u/HauntedCemetery Minnesota 8d ago

Make no mistake, thats exactly why theyre building these camps and rounding up immigrants.

It will be a short walk to them giving some bullshit about letting companies and individuals "take the tax burden on themselves" by housing and feeding the migrants, and of course have the ability to force them into labor.

Then boom, right back into the slave trade.

9

u/LegislativeLariat Wisconsin 8d ago

Van Orden has been clear he doesn't just want immigrants in the camps and that US citizens should also go into them for suitable crimes. He also has talked about how defying Trump is likely inherently illegal due to us being in a state of emergency due to 'invasion'.

He's also said he only wants military spending that 'puts lead in bad guys heads', that we need to turn the Department of Defense back into the Department of War, and that colleges need to close down and be turned into job training programs that hand out certificates that qualify 'graduates' for specific jobs as determined by the GOP.

There's a good chance your state's business owners will have to come across the state line and pay Wisconsin sales tax for their slaves if he gets his way.

What’s crazy is we all just already assumed this was a thing. It was not even a question in most of our minds. They have again successfully made it, with their flooding the zone, so that we are focused on the “much worse” things ahead, that we ignore these things. Which is crazy, because this alone is 100% absolute proof and indication that democracy is dead in this country, but we don’t have the time and resources to focus on this. We can’t focus on this jab, because we are worried about the haymaker coming at our face.

I just want to make it clear here that this isn't hyperbole, picking winners and losers based on loyalty is literally textbook fascist economic policy:

An important aspect of fascist economies was economic dirigism, meaning an economy where the government often subsidizes favorable companies and exerts strong directive influence over investment, as opposed to having a merely regulatory role. In general, fascist economies were based on private property and private initiative, but these were contingent upon service to the state.

  • Elevating one "strongman" leader as infallible, father-like, or even godlike.
  • The leader embodies the nation, so loyalty to him = loyalty to the country.
  • Extreme nationalism, often tied to ethnic or racial purity.
  • Scapegoating minorities, immigrants, or political opponents as enemies of the state.
  • Crushing free press, censoring art/media, imprisoning or killing dissidents.
  • Outlawing opposition parties and independent unions.
  • Using state-controlled media to spread constant propaganda.
  • Creating national myths about “glorious pasts” and restoring greatness.
  • Glorifying violence, war, and military values.
  • Expanding police, paramilitary, or secret police forces to intimidate citizens.
  • Not pure capitalism or communism, but tight state-business collaboration.
  • Major industries often aligned with or controlled by the regime.
  • Prioritising “the state” or “the nation” over individual freedoms.
  • Harsh crackdowns on free expression, assembly, and personal liberty.
  • Manufacturing crises (internal or external) to justify authoritarian control.
  • Normalising surveillance, informants, and arbitrary arrests.
  • Promoting rigid, traditional family structures.
  • Women encouraged/forced into roles of childbearing and domesticity.
  • Framing conquest of neighbors or global domination as a natural right.

Humans aren't immune to this kind of thing unfortunately, but it makes it easy to think "that can't happen to us! The Americans were idiots" when in reality propaganda shifted this nation over half a century. I mean also we were idiots, but I am a firm believer that no nation is free of idiots.

Federal Dept of Education will not be closing down but will recive new funding for a bold new initiative: Children who overhear “unpatriotic” conversations at home can earn merit badges, front-row seats at rallies, or even a coveted “Junior Patriot” certificate. Reports may be submitted through the Patriot Watch app - preloaded on every Trump TabletTM.

Of course they have a list.

Trump and his loyalists need to know who to give fat government contracts so they can get a piece of the money, who to squeeze for tribute, who to intimidate so they'll bow down and who to pull revenge on for resisting.

Trump and his loyalists have taken graft and corruption to a whole new level in full public view. They don't even care that most of their actions are highly illegal as hell.

More than a few companies have done this so far.

It is becoming obvious that the multinationals don't expect to have to follow through on these WH commitments. They're expecting the US to be on fire by the time anyone notices they haven't really built anything or increased US employment.

Yep. Now we know why Zuckerberg was visiting a couple months ago. Apparently he was in rooms he shouldn’t have been in too.

This country is so fucking cooked. I hope “the small guy” that voted for Trump, thinking he was going to help his small business gets fucked. Sincerely. Fuck all these people that took our country and sold it to a fucking con man. I feel so much spite and it’s because I love my country or at least what it was and what remains of it.

If you’re reading this and you voted for Trump, I sincerely hope you lose your business, lose your house, lose your fucking shoes. You fucking sold us out.

Every morning for the past 10+ years, I get up and walk into my kitchen to make coffee. I've always say "hey google what's the news?" and it tells me from the news sources I have chosen, those being NPR and BBC.

So 3 times now over the past month it's removed NPR and replaced it with Reuters who uses an AI voice to read the news. I've had to go into my account settings and fix my news sources.

You will have a hard time convening me this isn't some fuckery Google is doing because Trump wants NPR dead.

Any administration that tracks LOYALTY as any form of measurement for ANY decision making should be removed from power. That is pure fascism and a direct threat to the Constitution and the nation as a whole. And those companies which stand at the top of such a list should be blacklisted by any American who values their freedom and rights.
