Fascism and the Republican Party


This guy is not my favorite, but interesting clip.

Guessing this might turn into a pearl clutch opportunity for Trump if news outlets fall for any obvious trolls with it not knowing anything about what happened until the full thing gets released.

 
"Law and order" president my ass

Yesterday in Eugene, I pulled up at a stoplight behind a Tesla that had stickers that said:

F Elon
and the Felon

and: "I could shit a better president"
I wondered if the driver (not sure if it was a man or woman since the windows were tinted so fucking dark, but it seems more like something a guy would say) had been getting some flack

Yes, it's radical, and it's authoritarian. Rachel Maddow had footage of this guy on her show on MSNBC last night where he discussed basically firing the entire federal government and replacing them with their people. Also indicated the new government structure would have to have a "CEO", and that the American people needed to get over their "dictator phobia".

And....here we are
 
On this Ides of March, it's important to remember that America's inverted totalitarianism system of government (Sheldon Wolin) means that both parties are active participants in America's decent into Fascism. This may be an uncomfortable truth for those still desperately clinging to the notion that one party or the other is trying to "save" America but this is a convenient fiction designed to con people into thinking that we still live in a democracy under the rule of law.

We don't.
 
Can't buy into that. It's obvious democracy is falling by the wayside due to republican actions. Show me actions taken by democrats that are obviously meant to further autocracy. I'm guessing they'll be pretty difficult to find.

Democrats are in a bad place these days. Their lack of unity isn't good for the party or the country under the allout assault of the felon and his minions on democracy. But to say they are complicit in the path to authoritarianism is a stretch at best to me. The electorate gave r's all three branches of government, leaving the democrats somewhat powerless. Dumpys use of executive orders eliminates congress also. If you can show me numerous examples of democrats thwarting democracy please share them, maybe I could be swayed. Doesn't appear likely to me.
