i wish there was something that can be said when democrats are in control of the congress and the presidency (again) because of trump, but still aren’t able to do anything because of a few holdouts (also again).
we’ve seen this story play out so many times in the last half century that you’d think people would learn from it; but we don’t so the only conclusion you can draw is that not enough americans pay attention.
i pity future generations that will have to pay the price for this mass negligence and glad that i will be gone before the brunt of it hits.
The fascism was here all along, it just wasn’t equally distrubuted. The camps were already full, the tent cities were already growing, the war machine was already churning, the secret police were already snatching people to blacksites, the fascists were already supported and the genocide already ongoing. Trump just doesn’t bother with the mask, and liberals mistake that for a qualitative change. He says the quiet part so loud that willful ignorance becomes impossible, and you mistake that change in your awareness for a change in the real conditions. The building has been burning for a long time, he’s just the noxious smoke that wakes you up from your sleep.
Literally, no. Trump is a substantial change. Yes, the usa historically has had a massive amount of problems. Trump is not same old but said allowed, he’s a new level of psychotic and demented fascism. The previous stuff was what laid the foundation for a full on fascist to come to power.
the genocide already ongoing.
There was no genocide perpetrated by the states prior to trump in the last 20 years. Gaza, if that’s what you mean, while supported far too much by the states is done by Israel.
Yes, the usa historically has had a massive amount of problems.
Fascism for the poor and minorities, yes
he’s a new level of psychotic and demented fascism.
The same actions minus the sheen of reluctant professionalism, yes. We killed a million people in Iraq when I was a child. The only difference now is that white people aren’t insulated, so now it’s fascism.
The previous stuff was what laid the foundation for a full on fascist to come to power.
The previous stuff being fascist actions such as imperial war, police blacksites and indefinite detention without trial
Gaza, if that’s what you mean, while supported far too much by the states is done by Israel.
Israel is a US puppet state that literally cannot exist without a constant flow of money and weapons from us. Their genocide is our genocide. The Democratic governor of my state sent riot cops to shoot college kids with rubber bullets for being against genocide.
e now is that white people aren’t insulated, so now it’s fascism.
White people are still insulated from the consequences. Also, genocide and mass murder do not require fascism. You’re mistaking every horrible thing to be equivalent to fascism, when in reality democracies can and do still perpetrate such horrors. Mass murder on a foreign country is horrific, and wrong, but that does not automatically make it fascist.
Israel is a US puppet state
With how much they control USA politics, that is blatantly false.
The mask is off.
The degree is different. You think the banning of lgbtq and immigration is the same as before you’re crazy
Yes. But that’s not perpetrated by the states, especially not with how many nations support Israel, so it is not correct to call it a genocide by the states
Israel is a US millitary base in country form, all of its genocide is committed with the express approval, support, and material assistance of the US Empire.

Nothing will be learned. People will just fearmonger and do lesser evilism again to justify not voting for anyone else.
Saying that when trump is bringing about fascism is ironic.
Great man theory is bunk

The Gaza genocide has been actively going on for over 70 years my man, Octobe 7th just showed the world what a mask off Israel looked like.
Yes. But that’s not perpetrated by the states, especially not with how many nations support Israel, so it is not correct to call it a genocide by the states

Absolutely not. It’s not a one way street, Israel is exerting large amounts of bribes and influence to push the states in such a way
The tail does not wag the dog. Israel has some counter-influence, but is ultimately a puppet state for the US Empire.
