Serious question: Historically, has a fascist movement ever been put down without the use of violence?
It always ends in violence. The kind of person that creates these racist movements simply does not operate with a human mentality. They wake up in the morning and their first conscious thought is to benefit themselves, the second one is hurting others to benefit themselves. They are pure evil.
I say we declare the GOP a terrorist group.
They did declare themselves that at one of the CPACs, so only seems fair to make it official.
Republicans are something society needs to leave behind in full. They literally don't stand for anything and are net negative for society.
The destruction of the mainstream conservative media by companies like NewsCorp have yielded great results for right wing authoritarians.
At this point, they clearly aren't even for corporations or shareholders, given the most recent cascade of economic catastrophes.
"We Are All Domestic Terrorists."
Bruh...
I emigrated from a country that makes it illegal to criticize leaders
only to end up in a country that is also about to make criticizing leaders illegal.
Just... wow
(from PRC to USA)
Come to UK / Europe. We've got universal healthcare and more robust democracy and many centurys long tradition of criticising and mocking our leaders.
There is a lot of shit people aren't doing because they don't want to cross the line and become domestic terrorists. You do NOT want to move that line over them.
What a bunch of snowflakes. What's wrong? Are we hurting his feelings? The richest douchebag, who doesn't know what he's doing, with his head is so far up his own ass I'm sure he can taste it, doesn't like being called what he is? 🎻
Fuck him. I have no pity for fascists. 🖕🏾
Quick history moment:
The US government has always treated politically motivated vandalism as domestic terrorism.
The FBI defined Earth First!, Earth Liberation Front, and similar radical environmental groups as terrorist organizations decades ago, because they spiked trees and burnt subdivisions and SUV dealerships.
The Animal Enterprise Terrorism Act makes it an act of terrorism to vandalize a factory farm or animal research lab - even nonviolent protest that "intimidates" employees is illegal.
Some of y'all are acting like burning car dealerships was protected speech before Trump. Come on.
"terrorist" has been so overused it no longer means much of anything. Like so many other words.
never did. it was always a word to justify state violence.

Good to know that all that "George Soros interfering with muh freedums" was bullshit projection.
Is it still terrorism if you destroy a Tesla on January 6th at the U.S. Capitol?
Well then I guess I'll see y'all at gitmo.
So, the land of freedom is now trying to tell people what emotions they can feel? Against the guy who's supposed to be a free speech absolutist?
"You can say whatever you want, as long as it doesn't upset me."
The hypocrisy is unbelievable. You'd think they'd at least avoid making themselves look like complete fools, try to hide it a little?
And decided by the guy who started the birther conspiracy, feeds the pedo conspiracy (while openly being one), and told the world that his Presidential rival "turned black".
Fuck Trump and Musk, they both seem to be real musky about being called out for being awful humans. Trump should probably be more concerned with what JD is doing to the White House furniture, going to have to get plastic sheets to cover them all.
We are all domestic terrorists
Trying to pin it on Democrats who supposedly funded it is pretty far out. Come on. How much funding does someone really need to make a fire?
Next thing you know they’ll be calling democrats an insurgency.
They've been waging war on words for years now. Keep using them improperly until they don't have any meaning left. So... totally on brand
What about Vandalism against other car dealers. That's also domestic terrorism, right?
I think those Teslas spontaneously incinerated themselves out of embarassment.
“Who is behind it? Who is funding it? Is there a link with Democrat-leaning NGOs [non-governmental organizations]?” Greene wrote Wednesday on X, hinting at some kind of nefarious conspiracy.
Have you considering the 2 million or so federal workers who were fired thanks to DOGE with Musks face plastered all over it? Pretty big axe to grind there.
Fucking jackasses.
