Um, sorry but have you been paying attention for the last eight years?
The people left in the GOP are driving at full speed towards a fascist dictatorship. It’s not Trump, it’s the entire cadre of sycophants and Nazis he’s set up to protect him.
Laura Loomer’s “Alligator lives matter” didn’t suggest that? Nor the fact that she was celebrating the creation of a new concentration camp to round up and possibly murder ALL Latinos in the US? (And selling merch to go with it!)
What about Kristi Noem filming propaganda in front of cages full of prisoners in El Salvador?
The six SCOTUS judges who are eagerly giving Trump every immunity and power he wants?
Ron DeSantis creating a second one-stop deportation centre?
The US Republican Party ARE fascists, and are ecstatic over how things are turning out.
If you call yourself a Republican and are against this, you’re either a hypocrite, or a liar.
What’s been truly revolting is in watching how many liberals have jumped on the fascism bus. Kristen Gillibrand is fully in bed with the Silicon Valley techno-fascists. Richie Torries can’t get enough genocide, whether its via our migrant concentration camps at home or our outsourcing of genocide to the Middle East via Israel and Saudi Arabia. Sitting Democrat NYC Mayor Eric Adams has gone all in on MAGA, after receiving pardons for his chronic misuse of public office and funds from the President. Gavin Newsom is flirting with Charlie Kirk and Steve Bannon as a podcast host. Half the 2026 Texas Dem Congressional slate is fully in favor of turning the US/Mexico border into the new Iron Curtain. The Florida Democratic Party wants a Bay of Pigs 2.
It’s Italy in 1924 all over again. Oops! All fascists.
Yeah people thinking the Democratic Party is going to save them are delusional IMO. They are part of it and many of them have been working towards the same goal. They are a false opposition at best. Not all of them, some of them are legit, like Bernie, and look how he has been treated by the Dem establishment. Any real resistance is marginalized.
I thought the dems could save us in 2016. I then believed they would save us in 2020. The last chance I gave them was 2024.
Ill vote in their direction only in the hopes they can hit the brakes but, overall, they prove again and again they enable this shit and take no interest in stopping it.
I have been voting against Republicans for nearly 30 years and still have yet to see Dems hit the brakes. They do let off the gas some of the time, and since they are the only ones who have a chance of winning they get the vote by default.
If voting wasn’t so quick and easy where I live it would be difficult to convince myself to put in the effort. It should be this easy everywhere.
That’s why you gotta primary out the ones that don’t actually do their job. Like if it’s too late to primary one out then yeah vote for the dem over the overt fascist but that’s a last resort. If you have the time, check and see if any actually good candidates are running in the primaries and see if you can volunteer and help them out with their campaign. Obviously not everyone has the time or ability, but every little bit helps if you can
You guys are so delusional. You could replace every sitting Dem in congress right now with your hand picked candidates, and literally NOTHING would be different. How many times does this need to be said, YOU NEED 60 VOTES IN THE SENATE! Without 60 votes, you’re not getting transformative change. You can thank your red state voters for that.
The problem i diagnose is the democrats dont care to go after 60 seats. They are all too happy fighting over a plurality and maintaining the status quo. Its not inspired and will only ever edge you out wins as you fight over the same demographics that all hate you.
I understand that, and I agree. We do need Dems in Congress that will always push for progressive legislation and fight back against conservative nonsense. The issue is, there’s a vast amount of people in this country that want to do the opposite, and in most cases, we’re outnumbered in that regard. You have to VOTE, we have to WIN! Even a moderate Democrat can be pushed towards progressive reform. A conservative Republican will never.
Biden’s BBB was 2 votes away from becoming a reality, unfortunately, it failed. But 10 years prior to that in 2011, it might’ve been 6-9 votes away. WERE MAKING PROGRESS. But everytime republicans gain control, our progress is put on hold or reversed. We can’t allow them to keep winnning.
I think they’re making a joke (what with the /s), but some people will say that since “Nazi” is derived from “national socialist” it’s a form of socialism. Usually people making that claim are arguing in bad faith and/or are grossly misinformed.
this is what the fascists want. any excuse whatsoever to declare martial law, impose curfews, ‘papers, please’ checkpoints, and ‘papers, please’ thugs going door to door, looking for anyone they don’t like so they can send them to the concentration camp.
thoughtcrime doesn’t entail death, thoughtcrime is death
yeah, that’s a weak reason against violent protests. stronger ones are:
the violence is often misdirected at people not able to bring change, eg. small businesses or cars.
the violence exhausts protesters. many of them being crippled or killed by police, until the protests are suppressed by too few motivated protesters being left.
btw cops love violent protests. they get to kill maim and torture more people than usual. it’s what many of them signed up for and look forward to with excitement. sometimes they have off duty cops in plain clothes infiltrating protesters to start the carnage. all it takes is throwing one stone near a collegue with shield and helmet to give him an excuse to go on a rampage against innocent protesters, while the infiltrator sneaks off
I really love this meme. The self-defeating attitude that’s been perpetuated by team Dem of "We’ve tried nothing that could potentially be useful and are all out of ideas!” has been swallowed wholesale, by us. Will getting ourselves out of this trap be painful, disfiguring for some, deadly for others? Sure. The other option is self-suffocating, slowly. Drowning by self-waterboarding.
Funny how Republicans online were the ones crying about that, but now they’re salivating at the idea of deporting Mamdani for the crime of being a socialist. Can’t have those political opinions, that’s wrongthink!
Yeah that’s the problem with American exceptionalists getting to redefine language: it doesn’t work outside our walled garden, regardless whether the fruit is nourishment or poisonous.
I have cause to believe USA makes up their own meanings of words that has nothing to do with the rest of the world meaning. You can interpret that how you will.
You can show up to a protest armed to the fucking teeth without firing off a single round. That’s how those anti lockdown fucks got what they wanted in 2020 (and one of many reasons why COVID exploded).
Violent protests probably. Even republicans don’t want fascism. But there is nothing we can do without a hero assassin… At least 3 of them actually.

A “Trump Boat Parade” in Jupiter, Florida, on Sunday was joined by neo-Nazis waving swastika flags, shouting “White Power,” “Heil Trump,” and “Make America White Again!”

It’s really telling that every time somebody wants to point out that some Democrats are still decent, they cite an Independent

Primary them all. They’re all wet sacks.

Bernie’s Independent, not a Democrat.
Scratch a lib…
Leftist being nice to the right is always a sight to see
They don’t? How can you tell?
Well fascist were socialist and socialism is communism, so obviously.
/s
Am I missing some elementary knowledge? How is fascism resemblant to socialism?
I think they’re making a joke (what with the /s), but some people will say that since “Nazi” is derived from “national socialist” it’s a form of socialism. Usually people making that claim are arguing in bad faith and/or are grossly misinformed.

I keep hearing this so often “they will take any opportunity to declare martial law” this so often its starting to sound like autogenocide
yeah, that’s a weak reason against violent protests. stronger ones are:

Non-violent ones are more effective, as per some study I saw a month or so back.
Hey where did they get that picture of me!?
Better check your phone bro, I think they might be spying.
i thought @Asafum@feddit.nl knew, Asafum was waving at the wall just yesterday so i took a pic

We’re already at the thoughtcrime stage…
Funny how Republicans online were the ones crying about that, but now they’re salivating at the idea of deporting Mamdani for the crime of being a socialist. Can’t have those political opinions, that’s wrongthink!
He’s not a socialist.
In fascist USA anyone not actively licking the boot of a billionaire is a socialist!
Yeah that’s the problem with American exceptionalists getting to redefine language: it doesn’t work outside our walled garden, regardless whether the fruit is nourishment or poisonous.
He calls himself one, do you have cause to doubt it?
I have cause to believe USA makes up their own meanings of words that has nothing to do with the rest of the world meaning. You can interpret that how you will.
I’m talking about Mamdani specifically though. Or are you just assuming that based on your feelings about the US in general?
And? I live here. I like Mamdani. That doesn’t change the veracity of what I said. Perhaps your own feelings preclude that.
I guess that’s a yes. I was genuinely curious to hear the case that he’s not a socialist but it doesn’t seem you have much basis for this opinion.
don’t act like they’re not going to do that anyway. if no one rises up and does real damage, they’ll stage something and enact martial law
That’s not a reason to avoid resistance. They created the situation. The violence is on them. Hopefully, literally.
You can show up to a protest armed to the fucking teeth without firing off a single round. That’s how those anti lockdown fucks got what they wanted in 2020 (and one of many reasons why COVID exploded).
Yes they do.
No they don’t lol. The maga cult does. But actual thinking republicans don’t want it.
In other words, 0 Republicans don’t want it.
Lots of Republicans don’t like trump anymore. Lowest approved president of all time.
I would like that to be true, but I don’t think the numbers really support it, at least for the approval rating:
He was 6th lowest approved president ever for his first term, but that was with an approval rating of 34%, which is lower than it is currently. Bottom 3 are Truman, Nixon, and Bush, with 22,24,25% respectively.
… wishful thinking.
Easily accessible knowledge
Im choking, choking, on the miasma of stupidity you exude.
Might wanna check how long the line of succession is
It’s starting to look like the movie “Desperado” (or perhaps the entire “El Mariachi” trilogy)
can’t wait till the dude with chain gun in the
briefguitar case comes to save the day…The French figured out how to solve that particular problem hundreds of years ago. Guillotines are efficient and reusable.
yeah goes through every secretary.
Only 3? Found the optimist!
Wario, Yoshi, and Dinkey King? (Could’ve been Diddy Kong, but I think he’s been having some legal issues or something lately…)
I didn’t even know he knew Kid Cudi, either.
