The real big lie is that this is merely about the Slobfather making up shit

about having the election stolen from him. The bigger part of the big lie is that they do not intend to ever allow another African-American to become President again.

The Big Lie is based on "The Big Lie" which was a German Fascist idea that Germany's defeat in WWI was not a result of military losses but of being "stabbed in the back" by certain groups at home. Namely Bolsheviks (Jews) and bankers (Jews). The Nazi party used "big lie" techniques to rise to power, to cast doubt on the Weimer Republic and democracy.

Sure, keeping another Black person out of power is a motive, but the real motive is to subvert democracy and establish and maintain rule by the minority without having to worry about Democracy again. They don't want ANYONE except White, Male, Ultraconservatives to ever be in charge again. Remember they are labeling Joe "mainly moderate" Biden a "Radical Socialist". Everything that Democrats do to help people using classic Keynesian economics is now "Radical Left". They are using almost exactly, the tactics that Nazis were using in the 1930's. If there were any large number of "trade Unionists" they would be starting to try and lock them up.

This has been their modus operandi around the planet for decades.

My late MIL used to say it was past ironic that Jews were blamed both for Bolshevism/Communism that wanted to abolish all banks, and being the bankers that wanted to abolish all Bolsheviks. She’s the one who left Vienna just in time, but she lived through this mind-bending propaganda.

I was never fool enough to believe even for a nanosecond that “racism was over” because we elected Barack Obama, for whom I voted with profound enthusiasm.

However, the depth and breadth and sheer viciousness of the backlash as been beyond anything I ever imagined would happen.

Gods help us all.
