- My partner, the doctor, rolling her eyes: tell them I don’t want their claps and cheers during a pandemic, I want them to stop voting like dummies for sociopaths who don’t want them to have decent healthcare systems at all in the first place
- Especially white Americans don’t like to hear it, but we got to the “coup” stage of fascism because we didn’t impeach at the concentration camps, cages, family separations, beatings, gassing, disappearances. Fascism’s a pattern of escalation and nobody tried to really break it
- Do u guys think the fall of the Roman Empire was also this incredibly stupid
- Actually beginning to believe this dude could reinvent america for the 21st centuryWalz on Project 2025: But look, I coached football for enough years. When somebody draws up a playbook, they plan on using it, and when they do, they will restrict our freedoms.
00:00 - Guys. Every single person who’s survived authoritarianism will tell you that when they start abducting people off the streets, you are in deep, deep trouble as a society.
- Now we know why CNN didn’t moderate fact check or interrupt Trump once, that was HIS condition. In other words they appeased him and didn’t bother to let anyone know beforehand. That’s sort of an unreal level of complicity and irresponsibility
- What happened in France was that parties on the left and towards the center literally constructed a “New Popular Front,” referencing the old one, in a matter of weeks, at light speed, to defeat the neo fascists. And it worked. There’s a key lesson there.
- I don’t know why it has to be said, but planning to put millions of people in concentration camps is…insanely fascist. These are the stakes folks, and this is emphatically not a drill
- Biden was up there yesterday literally leading nato with deep respect from heads of state. Trump’s meeting with dictators. And Biden’s the problem here? Give me a break. Dude is literally doing the job while idiots say he can’t.
- Guys, this is the Real Thing. You can see why I’ve been silent for some time now. Because I didn’t quite know how to say it any harder than I used to say it. So now here we are. And the first lesson is: you gotta understand this is real deal fascist collapse.
- I gotta tell you guys as someone who’s lived through social collapse “but the other guy was so OLD!!” is gonna feel mighty stupid when the fascists control your lives
- I knew American media was bad but whew boy I didn’t know it was gonna embrace fascism AFTER a coup, camps, project 2025, etcetera. This is like off the charts insanity
- You know this sinking “is everything over” feeling? From democracy to your life? THAT’S fascism. The emotional core of it, which is to terrorize you at an existential level. Stay strong and hang tough. Head in the game. That’s how democracy prevails.
