Why would anyone believe he would deescalate something? Why would anyone believe anything he says?
TACO is a thing, but you’re correct in believing that isn’t the case here, at least yet.
It must be pissing them off so damn badly that we won’t behave the way that they would, and aren’t giving them any excuses. They know, at this point, that they look desperate even to some of their hardcore base.

CowBovineBovino is about 6 feet too tall.Nothing will undo the damage he and noem have done. We could free everyone in detention holding cells, and it will never be undone. We could give them citizenship, basic income, healthcare, and the damage would never be undone.
It might be worth trying anyway, though.
NEVER EVER BELIEVE A WORD THIS REGIME SAYS
There’s a word for this I saw in another post a few days ago but can’t find it now?
The authoritarians dial the shit storm up to 11, everyone protests, the authoritarians back down to 10 and everyone celebrates and goes home.
Rachet effect?
That’s their goal. People aren’t going home though.
“Let’s find a middle ground” is used to do mostly evil.
“I showed up to your house uninvited and killed your dog. Let me have all your stuff for free and I might let your cat live!”
The Art Of The Deal, some A-class de-escalation there.
It won’t either until they go on general strike long enough to ground shit to a complete halt.
It’ll be real costly; people will probably even die.
They are already. Voting is important and it’s a lot easier than this. It works, done collectively as well.
Next one up is tomorrow, 1/30. This time it’s the whole country. Steady escalation.
