      Didn’t realize I worshipped Biden. Here I thought I only voted for him because he was better than the death of the American Republic.

          “I voted for a literal fascist to save the Republic” sounds a lot more like you’re scared that taxes will go up by 2%. Whether you worship him like the drooling knuckledraggers with Trump flags is immaterial. It doesn’t make you any less of a fucking fascist.

              This “you don’t know what fascism is” thing is getting so old. It’s ultra-patriotism. Nation before self. USA has had a fascist streak forever. Even pre-WW2 and even post-WW2 we had fascist sympathizers.

              None of this is new. MAGA is not new. Fascism is not complicated.

              What did Mussolini want? Italy first. What did Hitler want? Germany first. What did the Japanese junta want? Japan first. What did the British, French, US etc want? Preservation of the balance of power. No one country first. NOBODY first. Trade and negotiation and treaties between equals instead.

              What is so hard to understand about any of this? It’s really not hard. What does Putin want? Russia first. What does Xi Jinping want? China first. What do the US, UK, France etc want? The balance of power, no one country first. Instead trade and negotiation and treaties between equals.
