(14,113 posts)... believe a democracy is too hard, requires too much thinking, and is unnecessarily inclusive of too many people of varying persuasions, ethnic, and racial backgrounds.
They think a white supremacist strongman as head of our government is the only way to preserve white privilege, white power, and white racial supremacy, to the exclusion of all others.
Many are on the verge of contemplating civil war to preserve their inherently woven into the social fabric,.. their myriad of advantages currently expected and enjoyed by them.
This fascist propaganda of diminishing white advantage has for decades been pumped into their heads.
It took us awhile to realize their end game. It is the same end game of all fascist regimes. The goal is to crush democracy from within, built a formative coalition of like minded conspirators, then execute a quiet barely recognizable coup de' tat. Then proceed to fully trash any remaining remnants of a functional democracy by installing a tight fisted jackbooted Fascist state built on the theme of intolerance of countering opinions or viewpoints.
Fascism snuck up on us and is now banging and kicking in what we erroneously thought was the rigid and stable front door of our democracy. The Fascist barbarians are presently crashing through the gates and are dismantling piece by piece our protective walls. But we can't figure out what to do about it, what action to take to suppress this rampant out of control and overwhelming fascism.
The march of fascism persists,... we better get our act together to combat the onslaught of crushing fascist authoritarianism coming our way. Our democracy is under grave peril, they will not stop until they have totally decimated our government and then us personally.
