They’re not joking. They’re literally starting a genocide and a fascist military police state in front of our eyes

For a decade, I have been begging anyone who will listen to believe Trump et al. whenever they threaten someone. I swear that the only time Trump tells the truth is when he promises violence, retribution, or lawbreaking.
Just some 30 year kids. They will say edgy things. I mean, come on guys. … no really, let’s go to ikea and fuck a sofa.
Are those actual leaked quotes on the right?? Good lord!!
In case you haven't seen the report,

Thank you.
I’m stunned.
The right will boys will be boys this shit until the skies fill with the smoke of voters.
Vance already said it was kids doing dumb kid things. They're not kids. They're adults. If you're old enough to vote, your a freaking adult. If you can fight and die in the military, you're an adult. You never see anyone say oh those are just kid soldiers doing kid soldiers things. No because they're adults who are responsible for their own actions and words.

I'm not. Kids did this shit all the time in middle and high school. These people just never ran into any kind of push back or experienced maturity
My husband is a high school teacher. He's had more than a decade of students saying Nazi shit in an attempt to be "edgy." They seem surprised when he calls them out on their bullshit. His response has made a few (probably too few) of them think twice about how people perceive them because of their words.
Last year was the first time he had a student who spouted that crap because he actually believed it. I think he has a couple of students now who actively identify as fascists. Times, they are a-changin'.

I thought the comics was clumsy satire. Turns out it's basically straight infographics at this point.
Great.
I think the worst part of all of this, for me, is how unfunny it all is. Like goddamn, they are so bad at humor.
I think the worst part is that the Vice President openly defended them.

Its so weird to me how they can be both Zionist bootlickers and nazis at once, it's impressive
It makes more sense when you realise that it’s about oppression, power, and creating scapegoats. Hitler’s closest allies were the not-exactly-Aryan Japanese.
And it’s not like they won’t all turn on each other eventually, anyway. So why not have some strange bedfellows along the way?
Supporting Zionism while being actively antisemitic is a handy way for Nazis to encourage jewish people to segregate themselves. Zionism presents a potentially attractive place to go, and then aggressive antisemitism gives them a reason to leave. The two are not so radically opposed.

It says so much about the Republican Party that they're defending these limpdick fifth-graders instead of saying: "You know what? We don't like these pathetic little shit-stains either."
You should also be aware that the group accepts people up to age 40.
So the framing that these are children or teens is also misleading.

What are watermelon people supposed to be?
Racist term for black Americans
Huh. Thanks. I have no clue how that even makes abstract sense. (bit I don't think I really care)
Iirc (don't quote me on this) during reconstruction after the Civil War many black Americans had little land (if any) and watermelon was an easy crop for limited land. Racist white people then associated the fruit with those they hate.
You got it, but you left out some details. The watermelon was actually a symbol of hope and prosperity for the recently freed slaves. The former slave owners, didnt like it. So, owning the media of the time, they started running ads showing caricatures of black people eating watermelon like animals. It took less then 10 years for the belief to become common that it was always a racist trope.
See also, fried chicken. That one came from Birth of a Nation. Both of these racist stereotypes persist today. I know the black community in America wanted to reclaim the N word, but IMO, they should have reclaimed the Watermelon as the symbol of freedom and perseverance that it once was for that first generation of freed slaves who over came massive hurdles to make a life for themselves.
To give you an idea of just how bad it was, there was a story about a woman who was a nanny for a young boy. When she was freed, and had to leave the boy cried and was utterly distraught that she was leaving. A few years later that young boy met his nanny again. The woman was overjoyed to see him and asked if he'd like to share some watermelon with him. His reply? "I dont eat n***** food.". Thats the power of the media, and then it was only a few newspapers. Just imagine what its doing to us all today.
Black people like watermelon. It's a stereotype
Don't most people like watermelon?
The fried chicken and watermelon thing is the stupidest thing in the world. Everyone loves these things. Every single culture in the entire world has its own fried chicken dish.

So the party that likes the slavers, the crossed flag, that hates poor's, ... is a Nazi nest...
What are the news again?
I'm getting so fucking tired of libs' satisfaction with hypocrisy. We already knew these people were Nazis, they've always fucking been Nazis. They say they aren't because gaslighting is a fascist tactic and open support of Nazism doesn't ring with racist middle class people who only have their internalized values to run on. Whenever chuds are caught lying there's thousands of lib gotcha posts like it's a victory.
Why do people on Lemmy always find a way to make everything about liberals? That’s what I’m getting tired of. Whenever something happens, people come up saying “well yeah, liberals suck”. How is that better than the thing you’re arguing against? If you’re tired of “satisfaction with hypocrisy” of one group, what is your prefered group doing? Is there someone actually doing something about it? Because I only see people writing stuff on internet forums, regardless of their affiliation.
