I mean if you're still supporting Republicans you're kind of the problem.
IDK what the fuck you guys have been watching for the last two months. I've been watching a genocide unfold with unaninmous bipartisan support. If you can see that and don't think both parties are beyond redemption, you're part of the problem.
I'm assuming we're talking about the actual parties/politicians here, not the people.
Oops! It looks like you've exposed the truth behind the DNC and their "nothing will fundamentally change" platform. Sorry but all the political realistsTM are about to swoop in and accuse you of supporting trump now.
Literally 2 minutes after you posted, they did.
Lol yes and downvote swarm. DNC shills are a predictable bunch.
and people like OP think everyone fits neatly into either group.
You can't support the right without supporting their fascism, regardless of how you try to qualify it
I don't think I've ever heard someone from the right say they support fascism. However, I've heard plenty on the left say they support communism. Also, the right has plenty of problems to draw upon without acting like the crazy fringe is the norm. This twitter post is insane and really not a convincing argument.
Go ahead and downvote because you don't like hearing it all you want, but you know it's true.
Nah its patently false. Christian nationalism is business as usual on the right now and thats just American fascism.
America first? Fascism. MAGA is the same, look at Trumps veterans day speech
The tiki torch "Jews will not replace us" crowd was very fine people on both sides according to him.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., declared in an interview that “We need to be the party of nationalism and I’m a Christian, and I say it proudly, we should be Christian nationalists.”
There’s Rep. Lauren Boebert, who floated the idea of mandatory “biblical citizenship training,” who has said “the church is supposed to direct the government” and that she’s “tired of this separation of church and state junk.”
They legislate against civil liberties then call anyone who opposes their attacks 'groomers'
Return to tradition. Reject modernism. Elevate irrationalism (denial of science). Disagreement is treason (or 'grooming', the new way of saying indoctrination, but a blanket condemnation of indoctrination is self incriminating for Christian nationalists). Demagougery, exploit fear of difference, tear down diversity. Attacks on immigrants to elevate 'patriots' (read white nationalists). Veneration of authoritarian leaders. Hyperfixation on chauvinism (Proudboys) conquest and war iconography. Selective populism, double speak where moms for liberty means book burning and parental rights means don't challenge my bigotry by teaching acceptance. Goes on and on.
They wont outright say fascism is good right away. It dogwhistles and doublespeak until they hold enough power.
As someone who is not from the US I have to say: this "meme" is very biased and one sided. Most of you do not even understand how one sided it is. You are taking your moderate opinion and comparing it with the most extreme opinion of the other side. If the other side did this they would say:
One side just wants that they stop killing babies
The other side wants to brainwash children into mutilating their own bodies.
killing babies Most non-biased description of abortion ever.
