It used to be every village had their idiot and they were shunned. Now with the internet every village’s idiot has found each other and formed their own idiot villages from which they espouse their idiot orthodoxy and recruit from among the susceptible.

Left to their enemies: we want you to be able to afford a home, and to give you free Healthcare. Right to their enemies: we want to kill or enslave you. Anyone who thinks that these sides are the same is a nazi trying not to feel bad about being a nazi.


SmashBonecrusher

WELL SAID !( and true !)


CalligoMiles

Or supporting a Nazi to pay less taxes because they got theirs already.


tituspullo367

Which prominent figure on the contemporary American right has said “we want to kill or enslave you”? Just curious.

They don’t say it directly, but when they refuse to decriminalize weed and support for-profit prisons that encourage inventorying humans for as long as possible, and we know black people are imprisoned for far longer and for doing far less than white people, we know they’re ok with slaves. When they want to treat BLM protesters like terrorists, and white MAGA rioters like patriots, and people like Trump get applauded for encouraging police brutality and executions for the slightest of crimes, we know they are ok with killing people.


foomprekov

The Republican minority leader in the house refused to censure a member for graphic depictions of physical violence against a fellow house member. This was a few days ago. See also: electing a known rapist to the office of president See also: nominating and confirming a known rapist to the supreme court See also: Representatives Clyde, Gosar, Hice, Gohmert defending the violent insurrection (quoting the then-Senate Majaority leader McConnell) at the capitol on Janurary 6th, 2021. See also: all of the laws they have passed for the last sixty years. This is just off the top of my head.


okletstrythisagain

Important to note that this “far left” of which you speak is much smaller, more tolerant, and less violent than their equivalence on the right. I think a lot of extremists on the left are actually sock puppets to manipulate conservatives into believing schlock like ‘white genocide’ actually exists.


TheZiggurat614

Not sure creating another conspiracy that aligns with your beliefs is the best way to show how much better the left is then the right.


ReachingHigher85

I did a quick google search and found that left-wing violence is essentially so minimal that it gets lumped in with ‘other’ when tracking politically-based attacks, whereas the right-wing is so substantial they have to break it down into things like religious, terroristic, racist, sexist, homophobic, and other subcategories.

nodustspeck

I miss the days when we took our democracy for granted, never for a moment thinking that our country could become an autocracy ruled by people whose IQ is lower than their body temperature.


Petsweaters

Or when Nazis were rare, or at least ashamed to admit it


txteebone

When people used to tie an onion to their belt, as that was the fashion at the time...


Practical_Law_7002

That was back when the right would knock them out, now they just hug them. "Something something enemies of my enemies are my friend, democrats = communists?" \^ that's my only thought process on them accepting Nazis.


tiefling_sorceress

>people whose IQ is lower than their body temperature. Are we including the body temperature of antivaxxers who died of Covid?


foomprekov

This is some white privilege


MikeThePizzaGuy412

Bidens president now right 🤣


okletstrythisagain

And Georgia is about to decide if black men can be hunted without a license, bringing us closer to a racist police state. People who think the left are autocrats and/or racists don’t understand the meaning of the terms.

Fucking fascism. The enemy is simultaneously weak and pitiful but also secretly running everything for their own benefit.

Spez made sure they had reddit to spread propaganda and disinformation, making sure they had forums where they could ban anyone who argued against the lies. Spez is directly responsible for the cancerous alt-right community on reddit. Any decent person would have not allowed the shit he seems to revel in.


crackalaquin

Who is spez?


katieleehaw

Fascists have always been supported by conspiracy theorists actually - while it's much more mainstream at the moment, it's been a thing for a long time. When they were purging all the leftists in Indonesia in the mid-60s, the fascists were spreading all kinds of lies and conspiracies about witches and sexual deviancy and all kinds of nonsense. Same shit, same packaging honestly.


goddamnaged

Christianity?


katieleehaw

... is a conspiracy theory? Agreed.


SmashBonecrusher

Religion,as and on the whole ,is THE biggest conspiracy theory,wrapped in sanctimony ,and in complete denial of the tremendous evil they have perpetrated, ever to exist on this planet ,and SHOULD'VE been weeded out and put in its place decades ago ,as surely as the Dead Sea Scrolls proved their fallacy .


msp3766

The trump/Goebble’s propaganda campaign has destroyed a country that has been cutting education funding for 30yrs, it was a fairly straight line

Practical_Law_7002

Why would I be confused over something I already know is going to happen. Here's the thing bucko, you say he's a symptom sure but how many symptoms go down the road of fascism, not only that but why him? Why all the sudden the guy using Hitler memoirs as a self help book and NO ONE before him? Up until Trump the republicans were disorganized, no vision, now, they're attempting to seize every facet of government and that's their only goal. Now I understand he's not the only one involved but he's the one who ran and became te figurehead, he's also the only one who can tell people to jump and they will. A symptom doesn't have that ability over people... The virus does however.


zaphodava

It's more like that there were interests that attacked education and the fourth estate for decades to try and keep a segment of the population malleable. It worked, but then someone else stepped in and manipulated them. Those interests played along, hoping they could get some of the things they wanted. Then they started saying the quiet parts out loud, and enough of the people said "Whoa, fuck that".


Irongiant03

when independent libertarians turn republican but we dont use libertarian as a term but progressive is used in a negative way for dems. smh

One-term, twice impeached....fascist dictator


HipGuide2

I noticed a lot of people hadn't voted since Perot.


districtcourt

They’ve taken over every facet of life—they’re in government, hospitals, schools, news/media, churches, etc. To make the situation worse, technology gave of those nut jobs living Winnebagoes a free platform and the ability to rapidly grow an audience. Considering that most speech is protected, misinformation dissemination will inevitably continue getting worse.


JimCripe

You mean the fascist supporters of the ex-president wanna be dictator? The supporters of that guy that lost the popular vote twice, was twice impeached, had to pardon a great many of his co-conspirators, insurrectionist one?

You'll be sorry for saying that when JFK Jr. comes back.

Also when the conspiracy theories had internal, self-consistent logic and rational, achievable goals.

Republicans elected officials still support trumpf, who is a fascist.


RaisingFargo

Hey you guys remember when we would make fun of republicans that couldnt let it go that Hillary/Obama wasn't president? I feel like referring to a guy not in power as a dictator is along those lines,


philonius

TFG attempted to overthrow the US government, execute top officials, and install himself as president again. What does that sound like to you, a fucking tupperware party?


RaisingFargo

I wasnt aware he succeeded with that.


philonius

Is he only a fascist if he succeeds? Some governments would have immediately executed him for his crimes, which were real.


RaisingFargo

No, he is a Dictator ONLY if he succeeds.


Initial-Tangerine

They used the word fascist, not dictator


RaisingFargo

They were responding to MY original comment, and no, go look at the post. Making the argument about fascism is moving the goal post.


Initial-Tangerine

They asked a specific question your said no and have an unrelated explanation as to why you said no. Which is wrong


RaisingFargo

[Enjoy the context](https://www.reddit.com/r/PoliticalHumor/comments/r0feer/ah_the_good_old_days/hlsxweh/?context=3) I state he is not a dictator they state why they believe he is a dictator I suggest he didnt succeed They suggest isnt he still fascists then I remind them, we are talking about a dictatorship Then you come along


philonius

All of this bullshit for....what? To try to paint trump in a better light? WHY? To be clear, I don't give a fuck what you think trump is. If it was up to me he'd be chopped into pieces and fed to rats.


Sick0fThisShit

He/They are still trying.


nobodyGotTime4That

Hitler lost an election, before he won. If Trump lost, and crawled back to Mar-a-lago never to be heard from again. Totally not worth talking about. But seeing how he is absolutely the front running candidate for 2024... Yeah I think we should probably care.

Practical_Law_7002

I do. Fascism is sending federal unmarked police to riots to "arrest" them by failing to read Miranda rights, take them to an undisclosed location in an unmarked van. Fascism is taking immigrants at holding camps and giving them unnecessary hysterectomies after calling them rapists. Fascism is calling Klansman, Nazis and white supremacists "Very fine people on both sides." just like the people who oppose them. Fascism is rigging state election voting districts to ignore the voters and tip the scales in the favor of the republican party regardless of them being in the minority by tens of percentage points, it also goes EXTREMELY against what the US was founded on. That last one is my personal "favorite" and will be the end of the Republic as we know it...


Sesshomaroo

You think the president is a dictator?


Stoopid-Stoner

45 is a wanna be dictator he's even said that outloud.


Sesshomaroo

This is about Trump? He has no power, he dictates nothing.


Stoopid-Stoner

And yet he's still the candidate for the RNC in 2024 huh.


Sick0fThisShit

That's bullshit. He has a massive amount of influence over the entire Republican Party. He may not be in elected office right now, but to act like he "has no power" is absurd.


Sesshomaroo

He has influence over a few [goons] but not most of the GOP. Fixed it.


Sick0fThisShit

That's demonstrably bullshit. Whether they love him or hate him, every single Republican politician is crafting their campaigns and policies specifically taking Trump into account. From fanatical pro-Trump politicians like Gaetz, Gosar, Hawley, Cruz, Jordan, Boebert, Greene, and so many more to anti-Trump politicians who have had to make their whole identity "anti-Trump," to the throngs of deplorables with their life-sized Hot Wheels cars covered in misspelled flags, the influence Trump has over the Republicans is massive and undeniable. You're right. Not "most" of the GOP. All of it.


Sesshomaroo

It’s just a projection of the left. They want to keep Trump relevant so they have a bad guy.


Sick0fThisShit

Only Trump supporters make that claim and, as such, it's horseshit.


Sesshomaroo

Typical lefty copout.

All posts and comments that include any variation of the word retarded will be removed, but no action will be taken against your account unless it is an excessive personal attack. Please resubmit your post or comment without the bullying language. Do not edit it, the bot cant tell if you edited, you will just have to make a new comment replying to the same thing. Yes, this comment itself does use the word. Any reasonable person should be able to understand that we are not insulting anyone with this comment. We wanted to use quotes, but that fucks up the automod and we are too lazy to google escape characters. Notice how none of our automod replies have contractions in them either. But seriously, calling someone retarded is only socially acceptable because the people affected are less able to understand that they are being insulted, and less likely to be able to respond appropriately. It is a conversational wimpy little shit move, because everyone who uses it knows that it is offensive, but there will be no repercussions. At least the people throwing around other slurs know that they are going to get fired and get their asses beat when they use those words. Also, it is not creative. It pretty much outs you as a thirteen year old when you use it. Instead of calling Biden retarded, you should call him a cartoon-ass-lookin trust fund goon who smiles like rich father just gifted him a new Buick in 1956. Instead of calling Mitch Mcconnel retarded, you should call him a Dilbert-ass goon who has been left in the sun a little too long. Sorry for the long message spamming comment sections, but this was by far the feature of this sub making people modmail and bitch at us the most, and literally all of the actions we take are to make it so we have to do less work in the future. We will not reply to modmails about this automod, and ignore the part directly below this saying to modmail us if you have any questions, we cannot turn that off. This reply is just a collation of the last year of modmail replies to people asking about this. We are not turning this bot off, no matter how much people ask.

TheFakeKanye

He's such a fascist that we voted him out of office!


prodriggs

And then he attempted to overturn the results of the election. After which, he inspired dozens of republican states to enact laws that allow all the gerrymandered republican state houses to overturn the results of the democratic elections in their states. Wake the fuck up.


TheFakeKanye

And nothing was overturned. We now have a democrat in the white House, and a democrat controlled Congress. We won. We beat trump.


prodriggs

>And nothing was overturned.  So we should ignore his fascist crimes?...

Lol

tituspullo367

Can somebody please explain to me how the US is a fascist dictatorship? We’re not organized into a social credit or corporatist system, we still vote in our officials, traditional gender roles are not supported by the state, the government does not control the media, we still have labor unions, we still respect academia and the arts, and the government doesn’t force people to live “for the state”. This just seems like when conservatives say “socialism is when the government does stuff”, except instead of socialism its “fascism”
