    Can we just give it to them then? We make them live under a brutally oppressive dictatorship with reduced rights, while the rest of us continue to participate in a democracy? We separate them out from society, put them into camps. They could have their own gestapo-esque police force that only had jurisdiction over them. We could even make Trump the head of that police force, but give him no real power outside of the camps, they’d just all live in isolation from the outside world, like Jim Jones or the Branch Dravidians.

      The thing is they don’t want that for themselves, they want that for everyone else. The republican mentality has become freedom for me and not for you because they hate being told what to do but love telling others what they can and cannot do.

      They already have that, but they’re not happy unless you suffer like they do

      Why does the riglious right want to change the laws? They already abide by them all. They’re not happy that others don’t

      It’s the control. They wouldn’t be happy with their own dictator led nation. They want them all that way

        Well, except for the one about not molesting children. Somehow they keep getting caught doing that.

      What we need to do is get them to go into the camps themselves so that we can’t be accused of oppressing them. Just tell them that living in the camps would own the liberals and make them cry salty tears. Make a movie about an empowered girl who leaves the camp and becomes a success and encourage Ben Shapiro to see it so he’ll make a 1-hour video about how people not living in camps proves American men are not masculine anymore. Those sorts of things.
