Yes, Evan Kilgore, you did vote for this.

You did vote to have your family's livelihood destroyed.

Heads up: Walmart is hiring part-time temp greeters and custodial staff for the holidays. Just letting you know before any of them damn imm'grants steal your white, christian, American male job.

Truth is the first casualty of fascism.

When the truth can be so easily disregarded, all hell follows.

This is exactly what more than two-thirds of Americans wanted and exactly what more than two-thirds of Americans voted for.

Demagoguery and Democracy

We don't have demagoguery in our culture because a demagogue has come to power; when demagoguery becomes the normal way of participating in public discourse, then it's just a question of time until a demagogue arises.

It took several hours to finally investigate what this Cracker Barrel nonsense was all about. 

It took a few seconds to start losing grey matter.

I shit you not. 

This is what the half-wit MAGAt snowflake manufactured outrage machine went apoplectic about today.

This is what biologically adult men are melting down over today.

This is what is on the mind of incels today.

The clip begins with:

"Classrooms shouldn't be stages upon which teachers can preach their various indoctrination masquerading as eternal truths. And similarly, museums that that are over 70 percent funded by the federal government shouldn't be laboratories for political experiments."

Evil is depthless. American hate and American hated of facts run deeper.

From The Guardian

White House budget director Russ Vought sent letters to eight museums demanding information about exhibits within 30 days and instructing officials to implement “content corrections” including replacing “divisive” language.

“President Trump will explore all options and avenues to get the Woke out of the Smithsonian and hold them accountable."

The Future Is History: How Totalitarianism Reclaimed Russia

It was the oldest trick in the book - a constant state of low-level dread made people easy to control, because it robbed them of the sense that they could control anything themselves. This was not the sort of anxiety that moved people to action and accomplishment. This was the sort of anxiety that exceeded human capacity. ... You can no longer sit still or reason. You regress, and after a while the only thing you can do is scream, like a helpless terrified baby. you need an adult, a figure of authority. Almost anyone willing to take charge will do. And then, if that someone wants to remain in charge, he will have to make sure that you continue to feel helpless.

He's literally showing world leaders his already-made merch for a third term in blatant violation of The Constitution.

For an endless dictatorship.

Buy a Trump 2028 hat. Own the libs. End the United States of America for just $35.00 with bonus, almost free cult membership. Operators are standing by.

He's already said it out loud, on the world stage, in front of cameras.

Arendt pointed out that both the Nazi and the Soviet regimes conducted periodic purges or crackdowns, which she called "an instrument of permanent instability." Constant flux was necessary for the system's survival: 'The totalitarian ruler must, at any price, prevent normalization from reaching the point where a new way of life could develop - one which might, after a time, lose its bastard qualities and take its place among the widely differing and profoundly contrasting ways of life of the nations of the earth." Indeed, she wrote, 'The point is that both Hitler and Stalin held out promises of stability in order to hide their intention of creating a state of permanent instability."

No brown farm workers, no food.

-

When all the "patriots" refuse the farm work - as they are doing en masse - done by the people they put in concentration camps and torture prisons, farms go bankrupt, prices soar, and people starve.

But America First, fuck yeah.

Coalition the willing.

When cholesterol proved ineffectual, Gavin Newsom stepped up to the plate.

HANNAH ARENDT
The Origins of Totalitarianism

It is in the moment of defeat that the inherent weakness of totalitarian propaganda becomes visible. Without the force of the movement, its members cease at once to believe in the dogma for which yesterday they still were ready to sacrifice their lives. The moment the movement, that is, the fictitious world which sheltered them, is destroyed, the masses revert to their old status of isolated individuals who either happily accept a new function in a changed world or sink back into their old desperate superfluousness.

The members of totalitarian movements, utterly fanatical as long as the movement exists, will not follow the example of religious fanatics and die the death of martyrs (even though they were only too willing to die the death of robots). Rather they will quietly give up the movement as a bad bet and look around for another promising fiction or wait until the former fiction regains enough strength to establish another mass movement.

It's time we call Donald Trump what he really is, a terrorist, who publicly incites terrorism.

Fascism is not an ideology, it is a religion. So, it is as bigoted as religion in worshipping the leader. The most obvious difference between the two bigotries is that fascism replaces God with a dictator.

To Be Tried as a Jew

In fascism obedience is not demanded, it is imposed. Fascism and racism have no reasonable arguments to convince the masses to follow them. So, they frighten the masses; and to frighten, they warn people by shouting at them. When you shout, cowards fall into your net.
