I have no problem with insulting fascists, bootlickers and other vermin, but a lot of that “inbred … chaw spitting … mullet-wearing six-toed cross-eyed cousin-fucking” stuff doesn’t feel right to me.

Maybe it feels elitist? Like the way he says ‘this is a particularly stupid version of fascism’ is by describing it with images that conjure up stereotypes used against the rural working class. Like you could add the word “peasant” and it wouldn’t look out of place.

Seriously. Patients at my work listen to youtube without an ad blocker and it’s just disgusting.

Today I heard “the most effective weight loss ever, using nothing but water and salt.” Last week it was “Chase, Bank of America and many other banks give out up to $100k with absolutely no credit check. Last year I helped thousands of people secure over $XX million with absolutely no interest.”

Just 100% straight up bullshit. I’m annoyed by low quality ai history videos, sure. But google giving free rein to lying grifters is much worse.

I don’t think that’s how a technofascist surveillance state works. They would know.

opening fire at a U.S. Border Patrol facility … motive is currently unknown.

Man shoots nazis, motive unknown 🤔

Under your system republicans would just send everyone who voted democrat to death camps.

At least with a secret ballot they can only do that to everyone they think voted against them.

It’s just what the evidence from pre-history through history supports.

The rich are the government - from local ‘big men’ style rulers, councils of nobles, mercantile empires from Assyria to the US, to local governments that serve property developers.

The history of the state is the rich working out ever more sophisticated ways of getting what they want without revolt.

Surely if anything it’s cynical rather than naive.

The most powerful in every society are the ones with the most resources and they’ve always been the ones with the free time to operate a government, which they use to pursue and secure their interests.

As far back as we have written and archaeological evidence of heirarchical institutions existing, they have been controlled by and on behalf of the rich and powerful.

I’ve got bad news for you, our government is already owned by the rich. Every government is. That’s the whole point of having a government, it’s how the rich control others.

It’s false and self serving to say all the good parts are patriotism and that’s what I do but all the bad parts are nationalism and that’s what they do.

All nation states are murderous vermin undeserving of respect. Holding any identity strongly - national, religious or ideological - can turn you into a destructive rube.

Welfare = black, poor people = whites.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner.

Disposable heroes of hiphoprisy have a great version about Pete Wilson.

This is not a problem for big ag. That’s why no regional or national ag-orgs are complaining. This is not a face eating leopard moment, sadly.

Campaneros still need to work. The pattern at the moment is they stay away for a few days after a raid, but then return. This benefits their bosses. Previously there were work stoppages to pressure bosses to raise the $/piece rate. Not now.

Plus the regime has promised to replace the workers lost to their ethnic cleansing campaign with an expanded H2a visa program - after having stripped away many of the already meager protections against wage theft.

The plantation lords know they’re getting cheaper, more exploitable labor.

There is no data to suggest that protest non voters swung the results and some recent data from Pew that they did not.

If you want to be mad at someone, be mad at Dems for choosing policies they knew in advance would supress turnout.

But again, this election was neither free nor fair. Only those who engineered this coup are responsible for it.

Personally, I blame the murderous fascists.

If we were a democracy then maybe it would make sense to blame the public. But our elections are a cesspit of corruption, vote buying, gerrymandering and rampant open illegality.

The public have had little to no relevant say in who forms a government for a few decades at least, probably since the 70s. It makes no sense to blame the public.

That’s more deaths than the Holocaust at a much early stage of fascism too. Of course that doesn’t account for inflation - 6m dead is closer to 20m with today’s total population.

But have no fear, this republican regime will do everything in their power to surpass their idols.

This regime is nothing but human trafficking tsars.

It’s an incredibly impressive feat, many will be glad to know the beaver is available.

This times a million. Nazis say some bullshit while trying to kill your grandma.

They’re part of a cell style right wing terrorist organization. trump regime.
