    I’m honestly surprised they’re having trouble recruiting agents in the current state of amerikkka. You’d think many a chud would be lining up.

      Our saving grace will be that Americans, especially the reactions ones, are far too lazy to carry out the shit they believe in. There’s no fascist street movement ready to be converted into government sanctioned brown shirts. There’s just very racist dudes on X, the Everything Website, and they’re waiting for AI to solve the Jewish Question.

        here’s just very racist dudes on X,

        From my experience on Twitter - now X - a lot of them were also Indonesian? So you had a lot of American obsessed racists that don’t even live here.

    • my guess is no small amount of the people who are into joining the gestapo are too economically comfortable to want to do the work or maybe have characteristics/history that disqualify/dissuade them from federal jobs. the application process to get into the federal job system is very bureaucratic, lengthy, and documentation heavy. it’s something appointed people get to bypass.

      it’s also one of the reasons that it’s rough to have a mass exodus of federal workers, because hiring back to capacity, even if the desire is there, is not something that happens quickly.

      as big as it is, the federal system is frankly more set up to quickly contract out work than it is to add people.

      They’re a bunch of larpers and grifters who will constantly cheer on the gestapo but would never dream of actually getting involved themselves
