This is what fascism looks like.
As someone arrested at a campus protest last spring, I have major qualms with how the Biden administration handled campus dissent. But it was nothing compared to what we are in for now.
Our reaction to this statement will help decide if Trump's regeime is able to consolidate power to form the strong-man dictatorship he envisions. Our reaction should be to protest in force across every campus while wearing MASKS.
@FantasticalEconomics @academicchatter @echopapa please tell me that this is a joke. Agitators? "Illegal“ protests leading to prison? Is this Russia? OMG

The US may not be Russia, but it's starting up look an awful lot like it. Putin has invested well to help make that happen.

All that's needed is a minor rewrite of the Constitution (of the Russian Federation) for the US Oblast to be formally recognised as part of the Federation. And then #ComradeKrasnov will be Governor Krasnov.
