I don’t know much about podcasts, but if anyone would be interested in participating in one that traces the history of the descent of the Republican Party into fascism back to Barry Goldwater and the southern strategy thru Ralph Reed, W, J6 and Dem failures up to present day Respond to this tread
Language matters and Dems have repeatedly failed to use the appropriate words when referring to Trump and GOP. For example, Dems refused to call Gingrich an immoral scumbag as he turned Republicans into Christofascists who elected the Antichrist. Dems messaging problem is mostly using wrong language

I’m a dad so if it helps, The Big Lebowski is one of my all time favs. It’s got a pretty kicking sound track too!

Irish, Italians and Eastern Europeans were initially viewed as less white in America primarily because of religion but eventually rose to the status of white-white. Conservative Latinos hate many of the people American evangelicals hate but won’t be accepted as equals by evangelicals anytime soon

There’s something known as the “colonized mind,” in which the people who have been colonized start to view the colonizer’s society as superior and work to be accepted by the dominant culture and in America, be considered white (see Cubans in FL who voted for Trump and are being deported anyways)

After 9/11 W’s Iraq war was a turning point for the media and democrats in which they stopped calling out bullshit. The media and Dems let W and Repubs claim the insurgencies couldn’t have been foreseen when H.W wrote in his book that he didn’t occupy Iraq because it would’ve turned into a quagmire

This comes from the people who were offering Bostonians $50 to go to the screening of Melania and stay the whole time. I don’t think anyone went

Thanks for sharing these! Americans need to realize that A)the idea of a “liberal media” in USA is a myth perpetuated by billionaires who own the media and B)it’s gotten much, much more biased towards Trump. People who still rely on MSM are surprised when I tell them that ICE is still terrorizing MN

They probably used the amount Amazon put aside to pay people $50 to and no one still went to help fudge the numbers. This would be funny if it wasn’t so fucking insane that formerly reliable news sources are now clearly propaganda factories for Trump. Read foreign newspapers folks

Putin backed fascists always look to Nazi Germany for their talking points. Trump accuses immigrants of poisoning the blood of America like Hitler accused Jews of doing in Germany and now Farage is using Hitler’s Stab in the Back rhetoric to excuse Brexit’s failures

Trump has threatened the 2nd amendment too but perhaps the most dangerous thing he’s threatening is the separation of church and state because the goal of white evangelicals is a christofascist state with Trump as their lord and savior

Thanks! I grew up a Christian, going to Sunday school and reading the Bible. I had my suspicions about organized religions, but when Ralph Reed and his Christian Coalition teamed up with immoral scumbag Newt Gingrich, I became an atheist that only studied holy books academically

72% of white evangelicals voted for Trump in 2024. They saw how immoral, stupid and evil Trump is but decided that electing the Antichrist was better than accepting equality for women and minorities, the humanity of people based on who they love or if they were misgendered at birth

Bari Weiss should know about this but she’s still hell bent on turning CBS into another Fox “News” that only praises her Fuhrer

Dems cannot fund a government thats killing its citizens in the streets and they should tell Americans that’s why they cant vote to reopen the government until ICE and DHS are disbanded and Noem and Miller are fired. Seems simple enough but if there’s a group that can airball a dunk it’s the dems 😔

Make it $50k like they’re giving to ICE goons and I’d sit through the abomination. 50 bucks wouldn’t even cover the cost of the amount of anti-nausea meds I’d need to take before, during and after the screening 🤢

Interesting that ICE is responsible for most of the treats and violence that they’re supposedly there to stop 😒 Dems cannot fund a federal government that’s using that money to gun down Americans in the streets

Trump; more money for himself and more money for billionaires by allowing them poison Americans with unregulated pollution all while taking away healthcare from Americans who’ll need healthcare to treat their, their children’s and grandchildren’s illnesses caused by industrial waste and smog

Definitely seize all of his and his familys assets and imprison them, the entire admin and congressional enablers in Cecot for life but Trump cannot be allowed to live. MAGAs will violently protest, but a couple of well positioned Gatling guns will help the mob self-deport themselves from this world

Absolutely not! I even feel let down by the Guardian for a report about Bari Weiss in which she said she had only spoken to Larry Ellison about “fairness” without mentioning that Ellison is a Trump supporter and no Trump supporter thinks any news that paints Trump in a negative light is fair

Even the propagandists at the WaPo can’t hide the Trump admin’s cruelty and incompetence, but what I’ve highlighted here should be bigger news. It’s kinda seems like the Border Patrol needs to control the narrative before more people find out that Trump’s Gestapo has shot another human being

True. People with limited thinking abilities are easily fooled into thinking that DEI and using pronouns are the reason for their failures in life and dumb people resort to violence quicker because only woke Beta males think things through before acting on impulses

MAGAs are the dumbest most delusional people on earth. They can watch with their own eyes 2 innocent people get murdered and still believe the admin as well as experience the economy collapsing around them, again, and hold onto the easily disproven claim that Trump is a financial genius
