The mask is off, Democrats. When are you going to act?! You're in the same building as actual fascists. The Process is dead! You can't rely on the thing that installed those fascists to stop them.

what are you talking about, chuck Schumer sent them a very strong letter that asked some questions. what more do you want‽
Hey now, it was eight very strong questions!
oh my god i thought it was three or four! they may be fascists but no one deserves the mortiferous eight question treatment
I'm sure that'll teach them
nothing more devastating than sending a letter to people who can barely read
"They would be very upset if they could read"
What do you propose? Sincerely asking.
Stand with the protesters that are out there.
And when there are votes of censure, not to vote with the Nazis. Oust the members that are voting along with the Nazis.
I’m gonna laugh so fucking hard when Trump deports republicans. They coulda stopped it.
Wouldn’t it be self defense if you resisted? If the alternative is being trafficked to El Salvador I’m pretty sure a lot of us would rightfully fight.
In an absolute sense, it absolutely would, but legally it would be "resisting arrest" or somesuch. Fascists don't tolerate resistance of any kind.
Once again, it's not deportation. When a U.S. citizen is forcibly transported to another country, it's kidnapping and human trafficking.
Technically, the legal term is Exile, IIRC. But doing that without the backing of legality is also what you said.
And when such violent crimes are done for political or ideological reasons, those crimes become acts of terrorism.
Nazis. The Republican party is dead. They are Nazis.
Don’t dead name them. It’s disrespectful.
You are actually very right. Calling them Republicans is not appropriate or correct, as the Republican movement was founded on a very different set of values and one only has to look at their history to compare the "then" with the "now".
These are indeed MAGA Nazi's in the true sense of the name. Just like the original Nazi's adopted a symbol of peace, the Swastika, and corrupted its meaning, these lowlifes co-opted the republican name and gave it new meaning.
They should absolutely be called what they act as, not what they say they are.
It's easier to just call them the fifth column.
Edit: the nazi fifth column
You mean traitors
I call them the MAGA Nazis, because I want MAGA and Nazi tied together for all history. Historically, it's important to differentiate between the German brand of Nazis and the American brand, just for accuracy.
Also, yes, the Republican party is dead, replaced by the MAGA Nazi party.
Don't forget the people that vote for them. Fucking idiots and traitors.
do you think theyre more idiot, or more traitor?
It just depends on who you're talking to. They have a propaganda machine here, and even intelligent people can be tricked under the right circumstances.
Not forgetting the non-voters who only vent their frustration on social media. Or with their ridiculous useless peaceful protests. Just watching democracy being dismantled and only blaming the other side... by doing nothing you are 100% responsible. Finally start riots while it's still possible.
You call MAGA stupid... yet you seem to know the German history and still only peaceful protests come at most... The technique of suppression is so much more advanced... Drones etc are a dream... but just keep watching... Germany only made it out with the help of 2 world powers. Nobody can help you later!
I may start referring to the republican party as the ANP going forward, because they basically are the American Nazi Party.
Absolutely make sure to point out the Nazi style abuse and corruption and hatred for regular working folks. But we MUST call them Republicans and the GOP and be sure things all become synonymous.
The GOP needs its comeuppance and a long, long walk in the wilderness. We can't allow them to escape the consequences of the world they've created by letting them pin all this on MAGA or Nazis or whatever when everyone finally realizes what a mistake Trump is.
Lmao. Kinda sucks that the literally only wins.
earmarking $45 billion to detain 100,000 migrants
$450K per migrant. I wonder which MAGA-sponsoring corporations are going to see that payday, and I wonder what % of it they'll be kicking-back to Orange and Elmo? We've got a lot of citizens here. Kidnapping them at government expense will be extremely profitable, even at today's rates.
Prison stocks about to blow up.
the airline services that specializes in deportation, and the companies help building the cecot/cecot like prisons are also benefiting.
How can anyone support Republicans anymore
Because a large part of Americans are pieces of human shit.
Or are brainwashed with Republican owned media, which is most news networks and various things with news in the title. I've met and talked to people who are Republican and most are inadvertantly ignorant; they try and keep up with what's happening but because of where they look they end up with misrepresenting and missing pieces. Left News is also missing pieces, so people tend to talk past each other, which doesn't help either.
Not too long ago I would have agreed with you. But at some point, I realized I grew up in the same environment they did, surrounded almost entirely by Republican Christian nationalist propaganda, and I saw past it by listening to the people it was targeting. They might be brainwashed, but they can still choose to listen to other people also, but they don't, so their ignorance is their own fault.
Think of how stupid the average conservative is, then remember, half of them are stupider than that.
No.
If you support harming others who have done nothing other than exist, you can't blame brainwashing. You're not a good person, full stop.
The truth is that a large portion of humans are stupid, selfish, hateful, pieces of shit. It's why brainwashing works on them; it's just directing them, not actually changing them.
You can probably be brainwashed into being a bad person, so por qué no los dos, ya know? Everything you mentioned works together in its shittiness.
No, I couldn't.
The MAGA members I know are totally down to send folks off to foreign prisons. They don't think the laws or bill of rights apply to "illegals." How do they know the person the federal law enforcement officers have detained is the right "illegal" without going to court? They don't care.
Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.
Because the republican mantra is "not my problem if it isn't happening to me".
You also overestimate how much people pay attention to current events. Most voters have no idea what's going on.
Why would traitors protect American Citizens? Republicans need to have a reckoning.
Deporting citizens is already blatantly unlawful. This is just icing on the cake.
Let’s deporting Nazis then.
Politicians sit in the “House” and argue. Meanwhile Kilmar Ábrego García is unjustly sitting in an El Salvador prison. How many others? The US is ignoring the Fourteenth Amendment and ignoring Judges. You’ve got an inept, elitist, felon who, despite his bravado doesn’t have a clue about business: Donald Trump was involved in the ownership of several casinos in Atlantic City, New Jersey, during the 1980s and 1990s. Over the years, he faced significant financial difficulties, leading to multiple bankruptcies related to his casino ventures. Specifically, Trump’s casinos filed for bankruptcy protection on four occasions: Trump Taj Mahal: Filed for bankruptcy in 1991. Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino: Filed for bankruptcy in 1992. Trump Marina: Filed for bankruptcy in 2004. Trump Entertainment Resorts: The parent company of his casinos filed for bankruptcy in 2009. These bankruptcies were part of a broader pattern of financial challenges Trump faced in his business career, particularly in the casino industry, which was highly competitive and subject to economic fluctuations. THIS is the president of the United States??? What a fucking joke.
