I warned of exactly this when they were talking of passing a law that would allow the government to immediately dissolve any nonprofit that "helped terrorists"
I was called overdramatic

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

This is my biggest fear in this whole situation. This law could easily be twisted into branding anyone who criticizes Trump online a terrorist.
Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) [aka Fuckface 45, Fascist 47] is an American fascist pig, and can fucking die in a fire, for the benefit of mankind.
Not could be, will be
~~could~~ will
The question is how long until.
Probably a 3am tweet during his first week. Reads a critique and says something about being the most loving president ever and that this person is trying to keep him quiet using terrorist tactics.
I've got nothing going. May as well die for that cause.
Similar conversations were held regarding Patriot Act, etc. At least some folks speak up.
He has to ensure loyalty to the Party...
Wear it proudly gang.
i'll hang it next to my 'banned from r/conservative' and 'banned from r/The_Donald' awards.
From the party that had "we are all domestic terrorists here" on a sign.
Fascists play opposite day. They don't just plain lie. Whatever the truth is, they invert it.
Direct assault on reality. Fight back in part by saying obvious true kindergarten shit everywhere all the time.
Hegemony conflates anti-semitism with anti-zionism in order to justify these kinds of attacks on people who resist colonialism, genocide, etc. Not to mention stuff like the green scare, etc. These attacks are supported by "both parties".
