Comment on Judge dismisses classified documents case against Donald Trump — CNN
Zombiepirate@lemmy.world 4 months agoFascism is a right-wing reactionary movement that takes power by subverting democracy.
You know you’re lying, but you do it anyway because reactionaries only care about appearing to win an argument.
We’ve had this discussion before, and you keep lying because you’re a reactionary who doesn’t care about the facts; you only care about appearing to win the argument.
Republicans are the ones who nominated a candidate who says immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.”
Republicans are the ones advocating for political violence, which is then enforced by their militias and “lone wolves.”
Republicans are the ones taking away the rights of women and sexual minorities.
Republicans are the ones who simp for a strongman fascist leader like good little goose-steppers.
Republicans are the ones marching with the Nazis shouting “Jews will not replace us,” a crowd which contained “very fine people,” according to said fascist strongman.
Republicans attacked the capital building to try and overthrow a lawful election.
You don’t fool anyone with your lazy bullshit. The only people who agree are also radical reactionaries.

It’s not my fault that you’re a reactionary.

Idgaf if reactionaries take me seriously.

“Tee hee, we’re stripping people’s rights away!”
And reactionaries wonder why they can’t get laid.

The irony is I’m not a huge fan of trump but I have no choice to vote for him to avoid the fascist from taking over. It’s weird watching them all skree about project 2025 when that isn’t even Trump’s agenda. You think they’d focus on what Trump is actually going to do which is agenda 47. Some I agree with. Some I don’t but it’s better than Biden’s plan of destroying America.

You describing their goals to them will not shame them like you hope. You’re validating them. You hear them loud and clear, we all do. When we think we’re “pointing out the problem” we’re just enumerating their to-do list. They point at things like universal healthcare, gun reform, worker’s rights, and DEI the same way. We don’t see any issue with listing our wants either.
There’s no point talking to them. They’ve made their choice. They’re beyond saving. Facts don’t matter if you’ve made up your mind.

Oh I know. I’m not really talking to them, I’m talking about them.
They have a completely different set of values, one not based on morality but instead in power.
They believe everything in politics is zero-sum: if there is a liberation movement or somebody gets a right recognized that should have been all along they see it as a loss for those who have privilege.
There is a reactionary streak running through all of American history: from the slaveholders who went to war to defend their human property to the America First movement in the 30’s to the KKK’s terror campaigns all the way through the neo-cons and the MAGA fascists.
There’s a reason why they want to confuse the issue, and my policy is that when reactionaries tell you what they don’t like there’s a reason to keep doing it.

When they play by the rules, they lose. That’s why they attack voting rights with their gerrymandering, voter de-registration, and limited polling sites. Rejecting democratic processes is how the party will continue living. As for this little corner of the Internet? They think they can set the rules to only allow positive conservative news and topics. But democracy wins again and all the up voted articles highlight conservative shortcomings. There isn’t a conservative opinion in here with a positive score but that’s just another election they want to control.

Republicans are a joke. Just a bunch of uneducated pro fascists that think everyone is beneath them who doesn’t support Trump. All they care for is “owning libs”, “muh guns”, “muh religion” and skitterimg about to justify every single fucked up thing Trump has done. There is no accountability. They hate the democrats and their politics so much they are willing to prop their twice impeached, rapist and convicted felon candidate up to extreme heights. Trump can literally walk up to them, slaughter their family and still, they’d vote for him. They don’t understand why they’re a cult. They don’t understand that Donald Trump and the GoP are actual, real fascists. All that matters is owning the libs and beating the democrats. They are first in line to bash the LGBTQ and yet they still rub one out to two woman going at it in bed. They do not understand the gravity of the Trump situation either. All that matters is that their precious leader gains office.
In b4 “lul I’m not reading all that”
We know, trust me. That’s part of the problem.
