We're sleepwalking into fascism.
It's amazing how many times I've seen historians say that this is exactly how historic examples of fascism come about. First people laugh and think 'that would never happen. It's too absurd. Then as day turns steadily into night you look around and realize it's there and it's too late.
I have zero respect for anyone who continues to support the Republican Party, let alone Donald Trump. I can't help but see the same gullible, immoral, selfish fools that supported the likes of Hitler in the early 30s.
The 100th anniversary of the Beer Hall Putsch was last week. History doesn't repeat, but it certainly rhymes.
Except this time it isn't like there is someone who can swoop and stop it. It's not like the EU is going to be in Washington DC rebuilding the country.
I thought woke was going to destroy America, which is it
I mean, the folks complaining about woke aren't the same folks worried about fascism, it's not like you've called out some contradiction.
Like occupy, it was appropriated by Wall Street.
I would say more like drunk driving 40 over the speed limit down the wrong side of the highway with coke all over our nose
We're the passengers and the people driving insist that there is no right side of the road, this is the right side of the road and you're an anti-American commie for suggesting otherwise!!!! /s
Also for some reason they're blasting terrible white trash MAGA rap.
Woke-walking
