At some point all of these MAGA people will have to be stopped permanently or another country will invade us and punish us for doing nothing to stop them but voting and crying online.
Why would anyone invade when our enemies could continue watching us rot from the inside?
Divide and conquer
A ground war in the US would be over before it begins. Infiltrating via the internet and collapsing the social fabric, on the other hand, is a very viable strategy that we’re watching right before our eyes :D

What a president can do to the least of us they will do to the rest of us.
Who was with his terrorist father in Yemen at the time. This isn’t exactly murder most foul.
Because his dad was part of al qaeda the kid deserved to die? That’s totally not fucked up at all
It’s not about deserving it. His dad took him to a war zone while he was working for a non state military. Not everything is personal or even about the person who gets killed in a warzone. Soldiers call it rolling the dice for a reason. The bomb on the roadside goes off. Does it hit the humvee with the gun crew, or the cargo truck carrying refugees? Nobody knows until it happens. One is seen as a normal part of war and the other as something despicable. But the difference is less than a second. Nobody woke up that day and said, “today we’re going to kill that kid”.
You don’t think the US military has the capabilities to know exactly who and what they’re striking?
Not like that. Satellites still can’t see inside of hard cover. Hollywood really oversells how much the military can see and undersells how much explosions hurt.
If you notice the contrast between jurors that convicted dementia donnie vs. those that convicted Hunter…the difference between the two “sides” here is thrown into stark contrast.
No matter how much the “liberal media” tries to bothsides the two parties, they just cannot cover it up.
Leftism is a disease spread by leftist plague rats
Likening your ideological opponents to rats and other vermin was used by the Nazis to brutally persecute Jews and other minorities.[1]
By portraying a group’s ideology as a sickness or infestation, it becomes easier to justify segregating, oppressing, or even killing them under the guise of social hygiene or self-defense against this perceived plague.[1][2] This dehumanizing rhetoric lays the groundwork for escalating violence.

What do you think about when unvaccinated were called plague rats during covid? Do you think we could have ended up down the same path with them?
That animosity is a policy failure because they should have just vaccinated and castrated all resistance just like farmers do with sheep. I can say that because I am a Christian, so it’s fine as the connotations are different.
You can’t jump to full authoritarian without going through the first steps. I actually don’t understand your second point at all though, about being a Christian.
Sheep hold significant symbolism in Christianity, representing God’s people and their relationship with Jesus as the Good Shepherd. Here are some key points about the symbolism of sheep in Christianity:
Sheep represent God’s followers who are helpless and in need of guidance, protection, and provision from the Shepherd (Jesus).[1][2] They are portrayed as defenseless, prone to wandering, and entirely dependent on the Shepherd’s care, mirroring humanity’s need for God’s guidance and salvation.
Jesus refers to himself as the “Good Shepherd” who lays down his life for his sheep (John 10:11).[1][2] This metaphor highlights Jesus’ sacrificial love, leadership, and intimate knowledge of his flock (believers).
Sheep are contrasted with goats, representing the separation of believers and non-believers on the day of judgment (Matthew 25:31-46).[1] The sheep (believers) will inherit eternal life, while the goats (unbelievers) will face punishment.
The imagery of a shepherd tenderly caring for his sheep is used to depict God’s compassionate love and attentive care for his people (Isaiah 40:11, Psalm 23).[1][3] Sheep recognize the Shepherd’s voice and follow him, just as believers are called to follow Christ’s guidance.
Jesus is also called the “Lamb of God” (John 1:29), symbolizing his sacrificial death to take away the sins of the world.[1][3] This connects the imagery of sheep and lambs to Christ’s atoning work on the cross.

OK so in your analogy, the government is the shepherd, which is Jesus? Pretty sure that’s not how Christians view the government…
