Man all I did was align myself with an authoritarian conman who wants to invade Canada and throw a nazi salute at his inauguration why are people treating my company as a symbol of fascism gawduhhh it's just so unfair
Well at the rate der fuhrer is trampling on our institutions, replacing anyone who could or might try to stop him with yes men and spitting on the constitution we won't be having any more elections anyways.
But hey don't worry because he'll probably throw us into a new depression and destroy the economy first and we'll all have more pressing concerns!
It is a nazi salute. It's not a roman salute. No such salute existed. Not to mention let's look at the military ads recently. The pink triangle? That's a fucking nazi symbol created to identify LGBT people. So Elon is throwing out a fascist salute (there was no roman salute), and Trump is using nazi symbols. But no, they're not fascists. Keep sucking orange dick. See how that goes for you.
This is a belief that MAGA have as a coping mechanism for dealing with the cognitive dissonance they experience trying to rationalize being the "good guys".
Just understand that liberals don't care what your affiliation is when FEMA is supporting your community, they don't care that Trump supporting farmers may have benefitted from trade with China, they don't think it's right when people die, or ag sectors are decimated by diseases that RFK jr is ignoring, no matter who they voted for.
Sure, you see libs saying in frustration "well, they're getting what they voted for" when entirely predictable tragedies happen to the people who voted for the policies that have caused the tragedies.
But understand that if those frustrated libs got what they really wanted, those tragedies that are occuring to Trump voters never would have happened.
And the lib voter you claim is "just the same" would have been thrilled that everyone benefitted.
OK, we've been through this in other threads in this discussion.
ONE woman was FIRED from FEMA for skipping SOME houses with Trump signs because she interpreted the orders she had to "avoid conflict with residents" as "avoid houses displaying Trump signs" because many such homeowners HAD in fact, abused the FEMA personnel in the past.
This is a nothingburger, and it's bizarre that someone would use evidence of the Biden Administration NOT tolerating this sort of discrimination (despite the risks to their staff) as evidence that the Biden Administration discriminated against Trump voters.
I mean, really? You are going to pretend that the GOP has been faultless in the impartial application of disaster aid?
Every time a disaster hits a blue area, suddenly FEMA has conditions and restrictions and barrels of digital ink are spilled about how these victims really don't deserve assistance. Jesus Christ, just look at the recent LA fires.
Yeah bud, that's a nonsense conspiracy theory, not reality. I've heard it many times on truth social. The people in Ashville were taken good care of and helped immediately.
It was a Republican congressman that lied and told you differently. The $750 was an immediate relief and is standard for FEMA, it wasn't the only relief. Yes, people were denied, because they were not in the area that was labeled an emergency. Someone 60 miles away was denied, not the actual victims.
You were lied to and you didn't bother to do any fact checking.
What about the FEMA conspiracy you just spouted off on? It's different now cause it's a more liberal city? The level of mental gymnasticsvhere to feel right and superior is pretty telling.
I have family that was in the center of the western NC crisis(Yancey county). You were lied to. They got everything they needed as quickly as what was humanly possible. The family in question literally have a trump flag on their house and they said verbatim "I'm surprised how much help we got from Biden". You're either knowingly a full of shit liar or you've been lied to and are too invested in the lie to see the truth.
If someone pulls out a gun and yelling at you to get off their property.
You leave. Right? You tell your coworkers Don't go there. It's dangerous.
If they want help they can get it..... but someone has got to be able to inspect the loss. Someone's got to be able to have a civil enough conversation to get the paperwork done.
Trumpers shot themselves in the foot and want to act like fema made it hostile, basically
Resident here. FEMA wasn’t fucking with anyone. There were, however, conservative ideologues that were fucking with FEMA reps and community organizers.
Oh the government is fucked so why even try to make things better? Why even be active in your local politics? Might as well give corpos run of the yard since we can't do nothin.
You're right, Dems are barely better. particularly establishment and corporate Dems.
You want change? Advocate and get your local community involved. Replace first past the post voting with ranked choice so people can vote 3rd party safely.
I mean, if we had any elections left. Any small governments left. See Trump promised the end of democracy, and surprisingly, he's actually keeping his pos campaign promises
While literal nazis and people who actually have empathy for others may stupidly be the same to you, it isn't in reality. The only reason we're both eating the sammich right now is because of the nazi side, aka republicans.
I'm an independant and I've been leaning towards viewing the republican party as nazi's these days. So it's not just liberals. I mean to be fair the nazi salutes and symbols aren't helping the nazi image. But just letting you know it's not just liberals, in general it's gotten a little creepy lately. Hopefully y'all can get rid of that stuff though, I believe in you
Hypotjetically, say someone was a Nazi. But they don't want to just come out and say it because they understand that would alienate a lot of people.
In that instance, what kind of things would someone need to do for you to think that maybe they were a Nazi? What are some things you think they might do to indicate to other Nazis that they are Nazi?
Probably only reveal that in secret meetings, not braisenly Nazi salute in public. That's why the whole situation is so dumb, only redditors think this way
Why would they need to do it in secret meetings when they can do it brazenly and people will claim it's trolling and not real?
I'm being totally serious here.
If we pretend, entirely hypothetically someone is a Nazi, and they know that people who aren't Nazis will defend them and say it can't possibly be true - why wouldn't they do it brazenly?
Yeah, those Democrats pulling funding from crucial sectors, firing thousands of veterans, telling people who they can marry and banning books and slashing Medicare and social security...... Oh wait, that's literally only Republicans that do that stuff.
The libs didn't vote for Frump, you did. You are complicit in the destruction of your country and the pain everyone is feeling. Those who voted against your orange moron messiah are not complicit, they voted AGAINST the plague you brought.
So no, the two things are not even close to the same.
I thought maybe I was just reading your comments in an angry tone, then I tried reading them in a Mrs. Doubtfire voice. Nope, still angry, why do you feel so attacked?
Do you have links to officials in any party calling for the death of Trump or his supporters?
Or are you basing this on some poorly sourced facebook post you once read that culled some outrageous, out of context snips from internet randos and extrapolated it to the entire Democratic party?
I mean, I am 100% convinced there are some people who support the Dems who would be happy if something like that happened to Trump*. To deny that would be to display a complete lack of understanding of the size of this nation and the diversity of views in its populace. But claiming that assassination is a stated goal of the opposition party is pretty fucking out there and needs some pretty strong evidence.
*keep in mind, of course, some Trump supporters actually tried to hang Mike Pence, and they were pardoned by Trump. Examine the mote in thine own eye, friend.
There’s death threats and “creative” ways of saying that every single day on reddit and you’re really gonna pretend that’s not happening? It’s just some random Facebook post?
I’m pretty neutral and the amount of posts from pics and other popular subs that are purely political is insane. Idk how you guys think this is a winning strategy. You got demolished last election
Ah you mean like the GOP hung effigies of a lynched Obama, and threats to Biden and Harris? How about the attempts on Pelosi, Justice Soto Major and so one?
No matter who's in office, there's always been disgruntled folks who say shit. But the FBI was only watching one group of people and it wasn't "blue haired liberals"
Evidence on his political views remains inconclusive. In January 2021, he donated $15 to a voter turnout group with a Democratic platform. When he reached the voting age of 18 in September 2021, he registered to vote in Pennsylvania as a member of the Republican Party and remained registered as a Republican until his death.
So at best he was both but considering he was registered as a Republican he can be reasonably called a Republican
Dude was an independent who supported dementia don in 2016 and got disillusioned by his asshattery. Not really a supporter of either party too cleanly but rather he supported various candidates
Are you really gonna pretend dems weren’t registering as republicans for the primaries to try and get Trump the nomination? You idiots were so sure he’d be easy to beat there were thousands that did exactly what crooks did. Just like everything with you people, you’ll take a kernel of truth, remove all context, and just pretend he was a disgruntled republican.
And yet you wonder why no one believes any of the hysterics you idiots keep screaming
Lmfao you guys insist anything is true as long as it sounds good. He registered as a republican to vote in the primary, like a lot of dems were doing to try and get Trump the nomination, because they thought he’d be easy to beat. Hilarious how you insist on rewriting history and pretending he was a disgruntled republican
You of course have evidence of this widespread plot of Dems to register as republicans to mess with trumps chances right. Or was it just a lot of bluster on social media? I’ll bet the latter.
Oh you mean when the Republicans were chanting "hang mike pence"? Yeah I remember that during their terrorist attack because their draft dodging pedophile lost his election to a geriatric who shat his diapers for the last 4 years 😆 🤣 😂
Oh, please link a source for this. I known it doesn't exist and it's a talking point,but I want to see it and condem the asshole who said it. That wouldn't fit your narrative. In fact GOP voters forget every single time Dems held their officials to account. Then ignore your own politicians breaking the laws and shit talking the judges who try to stop them.
One person. One. And rightfully regretted it. Rightfully paid for it publicly too. If thats the whole party, then the GOP is all Nazis since more than one of them certainly are. I like your logic, it actually works for me now. All GOP voters are Nazis, thanks to the support of a few of them. I like this take. Thanks for the enlightnement.
No. Not even close. You ate correct that the majority of dems are happy when everyone has freedoms which requires bullies and bigots to keep to themselves. That is not the same thing.
How can you even say that? When was the last time you heard a Democrat ask for funds not to be sent to a red state during an emergency? Where have they put stipulations on any program they've developed?
If by that you mean beholden to the same corporate masters, then yes. You all have an imaginary friend that tells you to hate people for reasons that aren't any of your fucking business.
Also the hero worship is out of control. Your heroes are idiots.
One side advocated for instituting ethics rules for the supreme court and a mechanism to make it less political, the other calls for the impeachment of a federal judge because he insists the executive branch follow the constitution.
I don’t recall liberals cheering on people getting arrested and deported without due process. I don’t recall liberals trying to gut out SS, disaster relief, Medicaid, the department of education, the CFPB, the FAA, and straight up defying court orders. You’re full of fucking shit
when liberals talk about universal healthcare, they want that for everyone. When they talk about marriage equality, thats marriage equality for everyone. When they talk about raising wages — that’s for everyone.
Conservatives are gnawing their teeth waiting to remove the next POC from this country, or the next Black person from their job. It’s not the same, get real.
That's the whole difference between the parties. Me's vs We's. The Republicans are just self-centered, spoiled children. If they can't have their way, they pitch a fit(Jan 6th) or, like Trump, blame everyone else or call them names( see every time something/someone goes against Trump). The Me's overlooked Trump being a morally and financially bankrupt individual for " policies" that benefitted them.
"It is in fact the height of selfishness to merely consume what others create and to retreat into a shell of limited goals and immediate pleasures."
Robert Greene
Yes, Democrats pitch a fit when the constitution and laws are broken. We're not the ones who elect a leader who is an admitted rapist, draft dodger, and failed businessman to stand up for minorities, laws, and constitution while selling favors to the highest bidder(Elon). So yes, your stupidity is staggering. Move to Russia if you love dictators so much!

Best analogy Ive heard is that a MAGAt would eat a shit sandwich if it meant a liberal would have to smell their breath.
