The rise of fascism call it what it is.

I'm not American, so I'm just now catching up with what happened over there yesterday. The first time I saw this image (elsewhere), I was praying that this was AI-generated. And I hate seeing AI-generated stuff and I'm not religious either. I still wish it was AI but now I know it's not and... jesus christ.

Spain has the correct response:

  • Prime Minister Yolanda Diaz criticizes Musk's behaviour at Trump's inauguration events - Diaz cites algorithms promoting xenophobia and extreme right - Other Sumar party ministers to stop using X, she says

Remember when everyone hated on regular Russian citizens for not forming a rebellious revolution against Putin and assassinating him in his sleep? For not shooting every Russian oligarch and everyone who rubber stamped the invasion of Ukraine? Remember when people called them cowards and “as good as nazis” for being complacent and not getting up and doing something about it?

Where are you keyboard warriors now that the USA needs you?

Just sayin’

What's wrong with him??? Really

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 hour ago

He's rich, and some utter idiots believed him when he insisted he must be smart. That's the natural outcome of that combination.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Asperger's and sycophants surrounding him probably sums it up.

It’s so fucking cringe the way he’s biting his lip and does that little grunt. He was really sitting there amping himself up for this moment. “That’s it I’m going to sieg hail!!!”

What a fucking loser. No friends unlikeable moron.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 27 minutes ago

That's exactly what got right away to. It's even more cringe than his little jump at that rally.

It seems like every other generation ~~has~~ GETS to curb stomp nazis.

My grandad did his tour out in europe.. It looks like this round it's a touch more domestic.

In the meantime while everyone is looking at Elon Donald is signing executive orders to

  • Grant top secret security clearances to White House staff without going through traditional vetting procedures.
  • Open the Alaska wilderness to more oil and gas drilling.
  • Eliminate environmental justice programs across the government, which are aimed at protecting poor communities from excess pollution.
  • Move to end birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, for the children of undocumented immigrants.
  • Declare migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border to be a national emergency
  • Remove protections for transgender people in federal prisons.
  • Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.

I'm not saying there will be mass deportation, indefinite detainment, and possibly executions of unwanted people, but they sure are lining up for it. For example ramping up execution of sexual predators, while at the same time labelling LGBT and drag as being predators, just for existing near children...

Like if Elon is a nazi, then we may very well see a DOGE squad hunt down "un-American" people in the darkest timeline.

Now the real final battle begins. I have nothing much to live for anyway. When Europe declares war against America...at least we won't just sit around when we die.

Sadly a lot of EU states are staring down a similar barrel of mass-illiteracy and mass-stupidity being exploited via the rich controlling the media. Look at the rise of the AfD in Germany of all countries, for example.

I'm starting to dislike this guy

It is amazing people are still making excuses for this.

In Austria, he'd already be arrested... twice!
