'Skrämmande retorik och överdrivet när protester utmålas som ett angrepp på vår beredskap och samhällsskydd.' att använda överdrift för att skrämma upp folk är ett fascist beteende.

Nobel Peace Prize for Francesca Albanese and the doctors of Gaza

Netanyahu just nominated Trump for the Nobel peace prize. Let’s show that the world thinks - Francesca and Gaza doctors deserve it instead!

For those who haven’t been feeling fascism for a long time, I wonder if privilege was blinding us?

Bill Owens, executive producer of “60 Minutes”, resigns: “I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it, to make independent decisions based on what was right for ‘60 Minutes’, right for the audience.”

We’re falling into fascism. — Deeper and deeper.

Global south showing they are more humane than the global north again!

We, white anglos, often like to think we are hero of the story, but are we just living in our own fantasy? #Mexicans #Texas #FlashFlood #ClimateBreakdown

Time to listen to people who have walked this path before us!

Robert Reich @rbreich.bsky.social · Jul 10

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.

Will we listen to his words today?

ICE cowards CHOOSE to do ’their job’ masked!

Jon Cooper @joncooper-us.bsky.social · May 11

When you watch these heartbreaking videos showing the cruel and thuggish behavior of ICE agents, remember that these people are not being FORCED to commit these acts — they do so willingly. They could quit their jobs at any time. They could say “enough!”

ICE agents CHOOSE to do what they do.

A reminder: Both sheriffs and local police have the right to refuse ICE detainers. These requests are voluntary and not legally enforceable under federal law. Across the country, many sheriffs and police departments choose not to cooperate and that choice is fully within their legal rights.

In comparison, Trump wasn't in power long enough to nudge Germans away from the extreme right fascists.

Canadians moved away without a clear, proven path.

While Australians saw the fascist side of the extreme right - and had a tried alternative.

ith all your needs covered in Israel effectively socialism, but being an occupier may not be appealing.

What is wrong with living in Denmark & most needs covered?

Liberal Socialism had lots of benefits and not a lot of negatives!

To believe we were not all headed, with America leading the charge, with several types of severe inequality.

I am just baffled!

While I would like to express sympathy for all who are suffering,

I am surprised, after the decades of paying massive fossil subsidies into the hands of liars and the media being silent …

How did you not see this coming?

The speed with which Congress not having the power of the purse, law and the Constitution be damned, has been normalized by the press is the most terrifying thing to me.
