Remember when we said---"Trump will never win the GOP primaries!"
"Trump could never win the Presidency; people aren't THAT stupid!"
"This will do it! This is the end of Trump!" ( X ??? times)
"The GOP will never get rid of Roe v. Wade. They're not THAT stupid!"
"Fascism can never happen here!"?
And, NOW we're saying---
"Trump won't be the Republican candidate in '24."
"Book burning in the US? Don't be ridiculous!"
"These concerns about the SCOTUS ruling against same-sex marriages and contraception are just alarmist nonsense."
"American democracy is too strong to be replaced by an autocracy."
""No need to get all excited---someone will fix this. They always do."
And, STILL: "FASCISM COULD NEVER HAPPEN HERE!"
:yawn:

3. Exactly. Time to start calling our dem leaders
Where is Jamie Harrison?
We need a big time marketing firm with anti propaganda expertise right near the top of the DNC.

13. Maybe it is time for new Democratic leadership in Congress.
The same people being in those roles for 20-30 years doesn't seem to be working out too well right now.

5. Americans today, generally, are unwilling too be inconvenienced, even to guard Liberty.
Very little moves us to break the suction between our asses and our comfortable seats. So, we think someone else will rise up by the millions and demand an end to fascist insanity. Someone else will boycott, stand in, occupy, sit in, general strike, walkout by the millions rather by the thousands or hundreds.
To mix metaphors because I’m still free to do so: like the frogs in the pot, our gooses are truly cooked.

10. I'm not sure it even happened
They project about everything they do so there might be widespread voter fraud in rural MAGA areas.

12. Many of our police departments are fascist.
They need to be watched closely.
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism, characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

18. When we start getting imprisoned or executed, we'll know fascism is here.
Because that's what fascists do.

Wasn't it a 1930s Louisiana statesman who said, "when fascism comes to America, it'll be under the guise of liberalism."
Or something like that.

Fascism was brought here with the election of the Biden Administration. Before Biden is started with the uncontrolled violence of the summer of 2020, the targeting of police officers, and the encroachment of mob rule.
Think about out it libs. Who has been burning buildings and bombing the meeting places of people who have different opinions than you? I can tell you that it isn't the conservatives. Perhaps, in the past, a couple of loose cannon conservatives have done some of these things but the conservatives as a whole have never condoned them and in fact, denounced them. Democrats on the other hand support the violence and act to encourage it, and when it occurs, excuse it.
Now that you look in to the abyss have you noticed that it is looking into you?

Well which is it? Do we have fascism or are we able to sit behind our computer monitors typing stuff out on discussion boards?
Because it strikes me that if we had fascism we wouldn't be able to sit behind our computer monitors typing stuff out on discussion boards.
Which, BTW, is exactly the type of free speech the Left is currently seeking to restrict.
So who are the true fascists?

Yes it is, from your side.

Couple of fun notes. First, the sign being carried right up front. "Repo Freedom For All". I'm sure that's just a Freudian slip, shortening reproductive to the same shortening of repossession. Two, it is specifically illegal in VA to protest at someone's home. https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title18.2/chapter9/section18.2-419/ (https://law.lis.virginia.gov/vacode/title18.2/chapter9/section18.2-419/) You fascist terrorists want to cry free speech to harass people at their private homes, against state law and not get arrested, lets talk free speech zones, buffer zones around abortuaries, Let's talk threats of violence towards non-leftist speakers at colleges, raising security concerns about events that get cancelled for daring to have opinions that differ from the hive-mind.
This doublethink either gets fixed or the country ends. Don't know if that end is a split or a takeover, but we are reaching critical levels, and this SCOTUS leak just poured rocket fuel on the floating dumpster fire that is the loony left.
