People hate Trump too. When will he slam the door on himself?
People hate nazis in general so it’s understandable that people would hate Elon Musk, a nazi.
But when even the Nazis hate him, you know he’s even worse than anyone figured.
Too late,fuckers! We all still know you all should go eat a bag of shit!
He was in Saudia Arabia with the president so he’s still there. Don’t let that fucker off the hook.
Will never happen but if the dems don’t go fucking scorched earth should they ever have power again we’ll never stand a chance.
The dems are bringing a clipboard to a knife fight.
I hope he tries to steal something in front of one of their police
Or show them the video of him on Joe Rogans show.
So you’re saying that democrats should seize power and then use that power to politically persecute republicans?
How does this end exactly?
The only effective solution to fascism has always, and will always be violent. It’s all fine to have ideals of a peaceful world, but you can’t fight violent autocrats with flowers. It has never worked.
You didn’t answer the question. How does it end exactly? Let’s think this through, you get up in arms agains the republicans kill them all and then what comes after? Are you implying that the US should only have one party and one ideology or what is the implication here? Because from my point of view it seems that one way or another this does not end in a liberal democracy. We’re talking about persecuting people based on their political association here so it needs to be clear that there’s a plan for what comes after.
I don’t think you’re being honest but just in case, let me help you. The implication is, this country has a fascist rot that needs to be excised before it kills us all.
Once the fascist party pretending to be conservative gets out of the way, the conservative party pretending to be liberal can take its place.
Then we might actually have a shot at a true progressive movement in this country.
Fascism is incompatible with democracy.
I’m being honest. I just don’t understand how you would make the distinction because they are all republicans. What about tankies, where would they fit in these? They are leftist but fascists all the same imo. Would Christians be killed as well? What about Muslims which have even more restrictive views on civil rights?
Where do you draw the line between who is defined as a fascist or isn’t I guess is the question, and how would you be able to tell them apart from a regular conservative?
Logistically this ends with everyone who identifies as republican getting killed. It’s the same situation with Trump and immigrants, he wants them all out but he can’t get them all out with due process because it’s impossible to do so, so the only way to get what he wants is to break every law in the process and send them to foreign gulags.
Either we believe in the democratic process or not. And let’s be clear, the democratic process means that if a majority votes for a tyrant, then democracy is working as intended. Using violence to avert such a result is inherently anti democratic. You can argue that it is the morally correct thing, which is arguably true, but we must also suspend the pretense that you believe in true democracy.
It’s also the kind of rhetoric that has given Trump the fuel to convince the masses that there’s a “radical left” plotting to destroy the country. Because this sort of idea does end with the destruction of the country and it is not clear to me that it ends in a liberal democracy and not in an illiberal democracy or a dictatorship of some kind.
IMO the plan would be a complete rewrite of the political system. It’s clear that the current system is based purely on the honorsystem, and needs to be redone in a way that rewards multiple parties, with actual consequenses for the capitalowners whenever they commit a crime.
A revolution doesn’t have to end in just one ruling party or idealogy. It also doesn’t have to end with killing all republicans. The denazifying of Germany didn’t mean everyone who had supported the nazi party had to be killed. A lot of ressources were focused on reeducation instead, and so far, it seems to have worked really well. The hardliners who directly helped the fascists will obviously have to be punished for treason against the country’s democratic foundation, but that doesn’t mean everyone who voted for Trump has to be punished. Most people are just ignorant, brainwashed and scared, because they’ve been pumped full with disinformation for the last 50 years.
But the absolutely most important part of all this, is to remove the system that rewards corrupt politicians. If a politician is openly corrupt, openly works to undermine their voters’ interests, they’re still more likely to get reelected than be replaced, because the party decides who gets to run, and the voting options are so few, and when people are brainwashed like they are, they’d rather vote against their own interest, than vote for their percieved enemy. So how do you get rid of that?
- Remove the overwhelming power from media that spreads disinformation by forcibly shutting it down, prosecuting the people in charge and the owners.
- Reward multiple parties by reworking how many votes you need to be voted in, and drastically expanding representation. There are 100 senators. Norway has 169 elected officials in their “Stortinget” for their 5.52 million people. That’s 32662 people pr official compared to the USA’s 3,401,000 people pr senator. How this will work, I don’t know, but I’m sure we can find some welleducated political scientists who can figure out a way.
- Fund smaller parties and set up debates that focus on inviting these smaller parties to give them a platform. In order to get funded and invited, you need a certain amount of signatures from potential voters. I’m not sure about the exact amount of signatures, but for the sake of arguement, let’s say half the amount of votes you’d need to get elected. This way smaller parties are guarenteed a platform to reach the voters.
I’m not going to write a whole manifesto here, so I’m going to stop here, but my point is, that this can absolutely end without rounding up anyone who doesn’t agree, and it can be fixed, but it needs a complete overhaul of the incredibly broken system in the USA, and it absolutely also needs hard punishment for the people who directly aided in the rise of fascism.
Then you see the real issue which is not that there are fascists in our society, in a liberal society those will always exist one way or another. The bigger issue is the bipartisan system. But I don’t think we need violence to get what you want. You need democrats that are not just corporate puppets. But the dems talk big about changing things and as soon as they get in power they work real hard to maintain the status quo.
I appreciate the fervor, democratic leadership is a bunch of spinless cowards, but trying to tear down democrats without a competent actually progressive replacement political organization is handing power directly to Republicans to rule completely unopposed.
Given the reality of political parties in the US, I’d rather spinless corpses filling up space to slow Republicans down rather than letting Republicans take total control in the absence of any marginal opposition.
Unless you’re planning on running for office as a competently progressive candidate.
From where I’m standing, it looks a whole hell of a lot like the Democratic establishment players are handing power directly to Republicans to rule completely unopposed, so I’m really not sure what your point is.
My point is that we need to have an organized political structure to get progressive people elected who will actually promote progressive policies. Saying “Burn Down the Dems” with literally no plan to put up opposition to Republicans is beyond short sighted strategically.
If the voters had wanted the Democrats in power, things would look very different to the vast majority of Americans today. Not the progressive utopia some envision, but much better than what we have.
I assume a lot of Elons influence was based on Teala stock payments to influential politicians. When the stock price drops this charade ends.
Simply not talking about him is not “slamming the door”…
They’ve simply learned that hyping Elonazi was invoking too much damage to his companies.
So now the Department of Gratifying Elonazi (DOGE) minions will more quietly work behind the scenes and we will learn much less about the damage they’re doing and when they’re doing it.
This is much worse.
Now slam the door on Trump for the very same reason. “People hate him.”
Until he’s no longer a billionaire he’s a threat to democracy. Don’t let up.
Don’t worry, we’re not going to forget
- The American people, 2016
Yeah. That’s fair.
We hate you too, Trump, can you slam the door on yourself too? And don’t let it hit you on the ass on your way out, it’s bad enough we’re going to have to clean the spray tan off it.
Cool, they should kill each other.
That’s because Elon is a little bitch.
So is Trump, but Trump hurts the brown people and gay people and trans people and the libs so they have to keep liking him.
Best we keep reminding them of it.
