Could the US turn into a fascist state?

[22lcidw]

Here's an interesting video. Apparently they made a film about it too, called "Lesson Plan"

Literally Trump, especially, but not exclusively in the US right now, is giving people something that is akin to what this teacher gave these students. Clearly on a different level, Trump is not a fascist, he's a narcissist, he's an egomaniac, but he doesn't seem to be ideological at all. But he could get there, if he were younger.

However, the person who picks up the pieces of Trump, the next Trumper, could be the next fascist.

We have lost unalienable rights and people do not even pay attention.

We can become fascist if we try to legislate morality

most young people that spit out the word "Fascism" do not even know wtf it is. Its a trendy invective that brainwashed and PRIVILEGED white kids use to insult somebody that actually has the ability to think. There isnt much difference between Communism, Fascism or socialism as they are all Left wing ideologies.

.

Twas ever thus.

Back when I was a radical thirteen year old, I used to call my mom a fascist for not letting me stay out past curfew.

Today's leftists are using the word with the same level of intelligence.

It's fun to watch.

When the Democrats stole the 2020 election and weaponized the Federal government against opposition we saw that ship pretty much sail away, didn't we?

We didn't steal the election silly one! It is YOU, unpatriotic Trumpers who are trying to steal the election from the American people who voted to oust your demigod, and succeeded. Your disrespect for the rule of law and Constitution is duly noted!

No
What is comedy is your insistence to make it about TRUUUMMPP!!!!!

Ah, that old tactic.

You don't like something being said, so you try and attack it for being "comedy".
Yes, we've all seen these tactics 100 times.
And you've still got nothing to add to this debate.

And it's NOT ABOUT TRUMP.
Did you not read what I wrote?
Or you saw "Trump" written, so you assume it must be about Trump. It's NOT.

The American people are too individualistic for fascism.

Well, watch the video.
The reality is, human psychology means ANY group of people could potentially become fascist, or other types of extreme, like Communist.

 

[Care4all]

Republicans=

Hate the men in blue.

Hate the FBI.

Hate the DOJ

Hate the rule of Law

Is that who you really are, and always have been or have you changed?

That sounds like a bot line if ever I heard one.

Define "morality".

Give me one good objective example of "morality".

I said "objective".

Go.

This is just too fucking funny for words.

Hold on a second while I go and catch my breath.

I saw exactly what you wrote.
It was all about Trump and MAGA and "someone like Trump"

You push this all on Trump yet overlook the side that doxx people, prevents people from crossing the street, encourages neighbors to report on fellow neighbors, shuts down businesses and livelihoods.

Yeah, I used to like Broadway musicals.

They became tiresome about nine years ago.

The guy who formulated the notion, the merging of the corporate with the state, would’t think so. He’d be amazed that it’s working out better here than he ever imagined in Italy.
“Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of state and corporate power”

That's the guy.

Just ask Pfizer, Moderna, AstraZeneca, et cetera, et cetera et cetera.

Some states are testing the fascist waters but there does not seem to be the kind of widespread fear and loathing it takes to make people trade their freedom for the illusion of security as yet.

Besides New York, California and Michigan which ones?

Wow

If anything, that would be the opposite.

I think the people on the left that actually do that are AWFUL, AWFUL human beings, just like those on the right that do this....

Live, and let live ...as far as I am concerned! Don't harm people because you differ!
