GOP Setting Up Dictatorial One Party System. Only GOPPERS On The Ballot. No Allowance For Dissent.

[TheMastersNemesis]

The GOP is officially really a new Nazi party on steroids. If you add up all their policies and their agenda it is very close to the Nazi party of Germany. Suppressing minorities, persecuting LGBTQ officially, using white supremacist (Aryan Nation/Master Race) propaganda, using religion to enforce tyrannical laws, establishing corporate political superiority, hyper nationalism, et al are all hallmarks of what the Nazis did. Sure we can say fascism but Hitler linked Germany industrial capacity directly toward building a huge military. The GOP is doing the same thing by cutting domestic and putting huge amounts of money into the military.

If you look at elections they are doing what Hitler did to gain and keep power. And the GOP is going beyond suppression to prevention. And they are ready to assassinate the Democratic party and progressive thought in the country.

They figured out how to lock the house to republican rule. The senate and president have always been a bit trickier. But now that they have all the pieces in place right now, I'm sure they are working feverishly to try snd make sure they maintain control forever and ever.

6. And then promptly lost the House and Senate.

The hyperbole is silly.

4. DAMN RIGHT!

But first, they'll keep their powder dry for a few more election cycles.

5. I think the dems are finally realizing

This is a whole different ballgame. They finally look like they're showing some backbone but they need to keep the pressure on and amp it up and not let up.

7. The Grand Old Party is dead. It's been replaced by extremists.

Republicans have always had a weakness for conformity and authoritarian leadership, and thus (very unlike the Democratic Party) their party always had a centralized structure, with lower ranks obedient to the decrees of a central leadership.

But over the past few decades, almost all good conservatives in office and who might have entered were run off, vast sums invested to replace them with dutiful followers who are now obedient to those who will usher in modern-day economic and/or religious fascism if they can.

9. UNREC

I know there's a lot of venting going on. Wildly throwing out allegations of what Republicans are "really" going to do without actual evidence is tiring.
