In reply to the discussion: Laura Loomer calls for genocide of Latino population. [View all]B.See
(5,983 posts)32. I think these statements being made by Trump and his fascist acolytes are calculated
to see what LACK of response they get. They're preparing us (dulling the senses) for what's coming.
If they can speak of stripping citizenship from native born Americans and deporting us,
if they can anonymously snatch people off the streets and out of their homes without cause or explanation,
if they can call for the extermination of an entire people without shit hitting the fan,
then they're ALREADY good to go.
