Tim connects the current militarization to people who once wielded cancel-culture power against others never expecting it to be turned back on them, and warns that unpopular policies (like funding Israel) create unrest that gets used to justify crackdowns.
- America has a fascist wet dream about military presence everywhere in the city, fantasizing about soldiers bashing skulls on the street.
- Cancel culture workers who wielded power getting people fired never imagined that power would boomerang and be used against them.
- People applaud military shows of strength without imagining the government could one day decide they're an enemy of the state.
- Militarizing police and bringing in the National Guard is anticipatory crowd control for when unpopular policies like cutting Medicare to fund Israel create civil unrest.
- Peaceful protests with unpopular slogans will be classified as violent threats, resulting in jail time for participants.
- In the UK right now, people are going to jail for social media posts voicing opinions considered anti-immigrant or anti-semitic.
