(93 posts)Every time I hear a republican say, Lets be open minded about this
I know Im going to be asked to unbuckle my belt, slide my pants down, turn around, bend over, and spread my cheeks.
This is their usual opening statement regarding climate science.
Every time I hear a republican talk about religious freedom, I know that their either talking about abortion or gay rights. They dont want any of either because Falwell tells them so.
There are any number of buzz words or phrases republicans use, wrapping their Nazi poison in liberal, reasonable language.
To strong to call them Nazis? Maybe we should call them Alt-right? Only if you want to apply political correctness to a cultural force spearheaded by the Cult of Trump. The actions of the republicans in the house and senate, the flood of bullshit (in Bannons own words) delivered daily by their propaganda machine, and now the beginning of a private secret police (project veritas) have proved one thing.
Beneath the thin tissue of their supposedly noble political and philosophical arguments lies a hungry beast, one who may yet succeed in consuming America, heart and soul.
If they win it wont be by their own efforts alone. Daily I see Democrats committing a sin of omission that almost guaranties their victory.
They are better at telling lies than we are at telling the truth.
This is How Fascism Works.
