unironically, he ought to be next, and he better know it, and he better go quietly
I don’t think the fascism would exist if it wasn’t profitable to give it a platform.
That's stupid!
I am shocked to see this pseudofascist apologia so highly upvoted.
It's not the media's coverage of the fascism that's the problem.
You would rather deflect blame to the media than point the finger at the fascism. Shame on you.
But fair enough, I can see how that might have been misinterpreted.
Yeah speak more carefully.
idk man you said we didn't know if Trump was going to be like Sulla and give up his power and that's a stupid fucking thing to say.
You're an idiot because you think that Trump would ever resign like Sulla did.
These are not problems I have. I do have the problem of pseudofascist apologia being literally everywhere. You emitted trash nonsense. We already know what Trump is. Shut the fuck up.
If Trump is elected to a second term it will be a disaster and there is no ambiguity as to the nature of Trump for he has already declared civil war against the will of the American people. You are an idiot.
It is idiocy and I am not obliged to respect it as anything but idiocy.
I guess what I’m saying overall is Trump might, even if elected to a second term, still turn out to be the American Sulla instead of the American Caesar if you catch my drift.
This is stupid. You are an idiot. Shut the fuck up.
son
there is a fascist movement
this is an emergency
I will hurt who I will hurt.
you should shut the fuck up with your 'well actually' de facto dictator apologia
Rome didn't have that many 'dictators' give up power
the vast majority of societies with authoritarian dictators are dysfunctional
again: shut the fuck up.
you're still operating on the 2014 patch, it's 2024
currently it's a loud and powerful minority that may pull us into civil war.
like it's not that hard. The US is not some special case when it comes to nation-states.
When the murder monkey hate spiral gets going, it keeps on murdering and hating.
if you believe otherwise, you are fooling yourself.
anyone who doesn't expect a regime of brutal martial law to come out of a Trump administration is fooling themselves.
these people have already shown they don't care about law and order to institute their belief system on the rest of us.
what's going to stop them? congress? they'll kick out the Democrats because law and order mean nothing to them in their pursuit of power at any costs.
a full scale state-by-state civil war is increasingly likely.
the 'right wing' believes climate change is a hoax. you're struggling with a failed conception of 'both sides' politics. please receive a plot update.
Some Guidelines For Discourse Here
Just because you are following these guidelines doesn't mean you are participating in fair play, and just because you break one of these guidelines doesn't mean you're in the wrong.
Because (for instance) sometimes the technically correct point is the salient point.
There is no such thing as a LARP, there are only ARGs
One of the problems of our political times is this confusion about ceremony.
The dissident right, comprising the portion of the 'right' literate enough to participate in discourse and the chief driver in 'extremely online' politics through their stalwart refusal to believe that they had been duped into supporting or providing cover for a fascist movement, often relies on this deference to simulacrum as a means of negating allegations that January 6th was, for instance, an insurrectionary act.
Such a person -- and there are many -- has become sufficiently confused by the 'artificial' nature of the narrative implanted within the protestor so as to somehow ignore what that narrative induced said individual to do.
Baudrillard is popular among these types. They are not truly illiterate. They can actually see the distortion of the spectacular mirage! They are markedly anti-consumerist.
But there are no LARPs. There are only Augmented Reality Games.
