How is it such a petty and immature person is deemed fit for presidential office I may never understand.

77 million petty, immature voters who put selfishness and hatred ahead of country.

Past time to stop supporting appeasers.

I’d missed that there was this recent background of armed resistance to these ICE centers.

We’re even closer to it kicking off than I realized.

Edit - wrong pic

Don’t forget the penis size compliment, also.

After 2020 I thought he was surely cooked. Then after Jan 06 I thought surely no one with sense wants to do anything but run as fast as they can from these cultists, and going into 2024 I thought Kamala isn’t perfect but at least everyone finally has trump’s number.

Then I woke up the day after the 2024 election:

The sad truth is a huge part of this country is OK with fascism and at least as many seem to be ambivalent. (or were so until sometime after November, 2024)

We might get a temp reprieve again like after WWII until enough of us that are alive now die off, then folks will forget again. That’s how we got Israel speed-running Holocaust 2.0 and Trump working hard on Hitler 2.0. The folks who just want bottomless power and wealth never stopped wanting it and the folks who remembered how bad it could get eventually lost the numbers game.

Sorry to sound so damn pessimistic but the one thing I really looked around after decades on the planet and could feel proud of about humanity was that at the very least we were getting better, however slowly.

Now I’m less sure. Now I’m starting to think it’s a cycle that’s just long enough that most of us don’t perceive it.

Cowards. We won’t forget.

Sadly, as a populace, we sure as fuck will, and faster than we should.

Some of us won’t forget. 🤜🤛

(sadly the best we can hope for is that enough of us won’t forget)

To my knowledge Manson never murdered anyone with his own hands either. (Though I’m prepared to be corrected.) Same thing 100%.

Edit - arguing against myself a little - maybe not, I’m sure Manson coerced his followers with more than words at times.

It’s very possible you are correct, and I’m sorry for being too lazy to look it up right now. 🙂

It’s been a very long time since I’ve paid much attention to the show (which is not the snarky sideswipe it might sound like) but I thought it was a very, very liberal-centric (note I did not say left) show with (IIRC) one token conservative host.

I could very well be wrong though.

As far as I’m concerned, they release it unredacted, or else we get to assume every redacted name is Donald J. Trump.

But I’m also in camp, “We’ll never even know about all the shit they had time to destroy.”

AND I’M ALSO IN CAMP, “I heard Trump would really be getting sent to jail any day now for about four years, so maybe nothing will happen.”

Me either, but on desktop it doesn’t care. (unless it’s thanks to Linux/ff/ublock but I doubt that) I didn’t realize it forced you on phone on until recently. Sorry!

Here is essentially the same thing with less detail. I haven’t decided where I like uploading things these days yet.

Fair, will do!

Looking at both the content and style of this report below, it seems likely related to or linked from it, but I couldn’t quite bottom it out either.

This report is 2022 only, FWIW: https://www.adl.org/resources/report/murder-and-extremism-united-states-2022

I grabbed it from a meme myself (likely grabbed by someone else from Meidas) - I appreciated that they left the sources at the bottom but didn’t chase it further, sorry.

https://www.adl.org/sites/default/files/pdfs/2023-02/Murder-and-Extremism-in-the-United-States-in-2022.pdf (I think this is pdf of the html above)

Relevant, but not, I believe, from that report directly.

some see ‘extinction level event’ if party loses

Oh no! Won’t someone think of the fascists!

Very on-brand for Republicans.

I post this to say it’s complicated, not to debunk OP.

Snopes doesn’t even render a verdict, but I’d suggest at least skimming this and coming to your own decision.

There has been rising anti-American sentiment for decades. (Deservedly in many cases.) What they are sounding the alarm over is that Trump has edged it across the line where they have to care.

The reaction to Mangione was an indicator, and the oligarchs saw it even if the politicians didn’t. Same thing here, IMO.

Edit- I thought that would only be the gifts and small penis gag as per the article. Will replace with a better clip if I can find one.
