Totally normal to suggest a ban on pregnant foreigners, the forced sterilization of all foreign visitors prior to entry, and the dissolution of the United States, when the supreme court doesn’t rule in in your favor.

    It is time for us to shift the Overton window back with opposite and equally absurd proposals.

    We need to open foreign maternity centers so that we can grow the number of US citizens.

      Become the demagogue they keep spreading FUD over, a gay trans atheist communist socialist Napoleon roaming the countryside corrupting the youths and organizing workers to defenestrate the masters

      I know people might have over used the Mandalorian mantra for this kind of thing, but I think it fits here, so:

      This is the way.

        They’re doing that anyway. To fight the Overton window, you have to go extreme. It doesn’t make sense, but Newton’s laws of motion apply here. An object opinion in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an equal and opposite force opinion.

      It is time for us to shift the Overton window back with opposite and equally absurd proposals.

      And thus increasing the political divide.

        Being passive and worrying about pushing away the people who were already running away from us of their own accord is what got us in this situation in the first place. This is a tug of war game and we’ve been letting them pull the rope away from us for decades, all for the sake of showing them how friendly we are as they laugh at our naivete. A con man isn’t conning you because you did something to upset them, they’re doing it because they’re a con man.
