    So people told me I was being an overdramatic dick when I pointed the multiple similarities between the rise of Hitler and Trump and how the Nazis are coming back.

    They’re back, out and disgustingly proud.

    I’ll be showing them the footage and awaiting their bullshittery gymnastics. Wonder how they will spin it.

      Don’t bother. They won’t believe it until they are sent off to the camps. That’s how it works. The people calling it out are made to look like fanatics while the real fanatics solidify power.

    Real talk.

    The richest men on the planet Earth are surrounding and and giving gifts/favors to a man who holds the highest position in a World Superpower with one of the largest militaries on the planet.

    What can we realistically do to fight a possible incoming Nazi regime?

      If you still have your Amazon Prime subscription, Facebook Account, Twitter Account. The literal, very least you could do, is not support the companies of these literal Billionaires, with a capital B.

      We need to bring back community, actual in person communities. Supporting local businesses and bring people together for discussions and socializing. As a society, we are too disconnected. It’s too easy to just throw a comment online (what I’m doing now) and move on. Actual change comes from society, and as a society we need to make change together.

      Big stuff? not much. You aren’t going to change the political trajectory in a hurry and there is only so much an individual can do.

      However, change starts small and it starts local. Get involved in your local government and other judgement making entities. It may not seem like much but when even the school boards are full of Nazis it affects the next generation. Start by making small achievable goals, and by finding like minded people to organize with. Take every win you can get, and a win is one less voice in power telling kids they shouldn’t exist or making your parents afraid of Mexicans.

      We can also minimize the fallout. There are going to be victims of the policies announced today. Do your best to help them if you can. Refuse to hurt people. Be kind to your brother.

      In a bumper sticker phrase, Build community.

    Fuck Trump, Elon, the other oligarchs, and all of the short-sighted moronic voters and non-voters who put them back in power.

    This may not be what America wants, but this is what Americans deserve for being so fucking stupid.

    So interesting thing to note from history, in many cases western people or nations pulled ahead by betraying non-western allies or peoples. The prosperity of the current globalist, neoliberal world is built on multicultural alliances.

    Basically people like this are signaling to anyone who’s paying attention and has been keeping score of historical record “DONT TRUST US, WE WILL BETRAY YOU!!”. There’s just not enough economic activity in the western nations to uphold their current levels of activity and productivity without multicultural alliances, so this is an interesting turn.

    Power is an interesting concept because a lot of it is assumed on the part of those who claim it, and those who relinquish it often don’t even realize the cards they hold because they’re gaslit into believing the lies of their opponents. What a shitty and annoying world, and here I was hoping for a Star Trek future in my lifetime.

    Lastly, the whole “white supremacy” thing doesn’t make sense when there are people of Persian descent who are more Aryan than many white Europeans, so that’s a huge lol.

      They are busy responding to other comments on other social media saying saying “It’s because he is autistic, he was just stimming” or “He was showing how his heart goes out to them” or “It’s totally just the Roman solute, learn your history bro”

      I’m p sure they’re all still stewing and complaining about the people who weren’t motivated to vote for a Republican campaign led by a Democrat.
