I like the part about no new spending is needed. Should we translate that to we will divert people looking into measles and covid to this?
If hating what Trump does and represents is a mental disorder, then I am terminal and highly-contagious.
Unfortunately much of this country has developed a vaccine for this apparently.
This is a foot in the door for using the mechanisms of criminal psychiatry to brutalize opposition, not a joke.
It also silences their voices and discredits anything they say so opposition don’t gain more support as the GOP dismantle our democracy in front of our eyes.
Relationships will become more strained.

Step 1?
I feel like we’re already on step 32.

There will always be elections. They might just be Venezuela style.
I don’t hate him, I don’t know him.
I hate what he does. I hate what he says. I hate who he associates with. I hate his voice. I hate his face. I hate everything about him.
I will celebrate with so much champagne when he dies.
If only you were highly contagious
I agree, a lot of you are mentally ill and a bit simple. But that’s beside the point.
Like the fact you all avoid confrontation and allowed TDS to culturally be pinned to the left is absolutely deranged how easily it could have been flipped. The fact the right has such a control on pushing a dominate view online and publicly is because trump opposition has mental problems. Look at the guy. He’s an lol cow and yet nothing is being generated beyond a “he’s racist” “orange man bad” where’s your fucking fight. That’s The actual TDS. The desire to passively watch the lol cow and not immediately go make funny shit
I don’t want politics to be a 4chan-esque game of trolling. “Orange man bad” “lolcow” Are you even old enough to vote?
You have to. There is no other way. I’m not even being sarcastic here. You have to in the modern age. You can act like you’re above it but there are consequences. Some consequences we are witnessing currently. This is a popularity contest in a digital culture. You have to speak the language. The way you answered explains so much. You said “I don’t want …” that’s ok. But you have to accept it’s not about you or what you want. We are seeing the richest and most powerful invest in this stuff for a reason. It’s silly but effective. Which is why it’s often overlooked. It’s the subtle appeal to base instinct. It’s about capture and engagement. You can’t logic your way to winning people to a side politically in the current climate.
You’re the same kind of guy who would comment on an article about a political assassination of a fascist with “but not like this!”.
You want OTHERS to fight back, as if the legal means to do so will have any effect whatsoever.
Federal government is currently captured entirely by the fascists, state and local governments are being attacked.
What is suing going to do? What is on foot protest going to do? The vast majority of us have y’know, jobs? Families? Things to take care of? Makes it pretty hard to drop everything and just go protest, or fight back in those ways. We do what we can to protect our own and those around us, and if anyone was planning any sort of resistance it sure as fuck wouldn’t be being discussed on an open public platform like Lemmy.
So cool it with all the “these stupid Americans are just lying there and taking it”. Would love to see what YOU do if it was you in these shoes (don’t bother commenting any big dick “I would fight back” bullshit. It’s very obvious when a keyboard warrior is pushing for OTHERS to do violence)
I want people to create content. I want the current content creators to be lifted up and supported. I want to see 10 responses that are funny or engaging for every stupid comment on Facebook, YouTube, Reddit and here. Not just bullshit like “he’s racist”. I want people to become more engaged and play the game. The right did something effective over the past couple decades. People need to put the ego down and understand how they did it and repeat it
A bill like this was proposed in the Minnesota state house, shortly before one of the co-sponsors was arrested for soliciting sex from a minor.
I might have a mental health disorder, but I am cognitively healthier than any of his butt-kissers.
Thanks
I propose that we will follow up to this new disorder. Maybe it can be compromised by learning people how to read, though it has been shown by experience that wearing a diaper remains a necessity for this disorder. Anyone got an idea how we’ll push these patients beyond the toddler stage and, of course, allow them to become full-functioning adults who can read and write? /s
(Or even better: How about we set an age limit and a clear prevention against having anyone run for office who may not vote by the law. Come on, America: You can do it!)
Or, you have eyes and ears.
Oops! Looks like I have an incredibly severe mental health disorder. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to treat it.
Unless… maybe I can bring light or bleach into my body - almost like a cleaning. You know, to stop this disorder? I heard Trump’s team is looking into that. Should be interesting.
Trump has the most fragile ego ever
Luckily, the research on that is already done:
Just like good old Generalissimus Stalin. He learns from the best!
Hitler, also. Remember that one of the only books anyone can recall Trump reading regularly is a collected volume of Hitler’s speeches.
I’ve had one my whole shitty life. The Orange Jackass is just making it easy worse.
Trumpitis.
It’s an allergy to orange shitbags. not a mental healthdisorder!

This is not a legitimate disorder, this is Republican politicians pushing for what they’ve been calling “Trump derangement syndrome” to become a “real” disorder. With RFK jr talking about bringing back asylums for the mentally disabled, I’m pretty sure I’m not being too conspiratorial in thinking this will be the factor that “legitimizes” incarcerating those who speak out about how awful Trump is…
Critical Thinking is now a Mental Health Disorder?
Ignorance is strength. Sickness is health.
Depression is the first disease from a second term so why not accept that as fact.
The biggest problem with these MAGA Nazis is that they fully believe their own nonsensical propaganda. They actually see Trump haters as mentally disabled, not angry patriotic Americans, so it doesn’t occur to them that putting mentally healthy and angry people together is only creating a small motivated army that will kill their captors, take their weapons, and go house to house in the local community, killing everyone with MAGA stuff.
The administration is preparing to put them all in a “mental health camp”.
Most of them do not see opposition as mentally disabled, they see it as an internal enemy. And in dealing with it, punitive psychiatry is a times tested method.
Based. That’s the attitude I want to hear. Remember that the ultimate enemy are the oligarch class so next they would need to be obliterated followed by a permanent revolution against fascism worldwide.
Only change is that I would take unarmed low-level Magatards as prisoners rather than kill them.
