NightGyr posted:"It's not real fascism because they're bad at it" is the story of the last four years Yeah unironically, Trump's not a fascist he's just a mask off liberal, there's none of the usual things that make fascism fascism unless you want to make the definition so wide that it just means "right winger that says rude things" in which case the term is meaningless

Declan MacManus posted:counterpoint: if a guy pulls out a gun to rob you, never takes anything from you, and spends the entire time pointing the pistol at his own dick, were you truly robbed at gunpoint look even though one side doesn't involve the gun it's still an open-faced robbery on smith & wesson, so it's still a robbery.

i love that a bunch of weirdo libs decided a coup isn't a coup, because if you call a spade a spade someone might do something about it, which will definitely hurt the left (the left is already getting hurt at max velocity and that ain't changing lol)

Truga posted:the organized street armies are cops now, hth i agree that the fascists are in charge already, but that kinda bumps up against "trump is trying to do a fascist coup!" i think this wasn't a coup because it clearly wasn't a coup. it was a demonstration that turned into a weird police chaperoned riot people in demonstrations make demands. they think they're part of a revolution. but its obviously different from a coup. i don't think anyone in that crowd seriously expected to achieve any sort of political power that day. hence the selfies and looting and not tennis court oathing i don't think putsch is right either cuz they're not overthrowing the government. in their mind they're maintaining the existing government. its obviously a weird and complicated situation, but i don't see why people need this to be something more than a riot or a demonstration other than to hype up how much they don't like "those people" RaySmuckles has issued a correction as of 22:56 on Jan 7, 2021 |
