So let me see if I understand this, you're talking about people generally being fascist and that President Donald Trump is just an excuse to push forward fascism? Kinda like how Hitler facilitated the same thing. Is that at all correct?
I'm saying trump is the kind of president republicans have wanted since 2012, yeah
i think the point he's getting is that idiots have been around forever. And occasionally throughout human history, some leader is able to weaponize this idiocy to their advantage.
There comes a point after hearing about how Donald Trump is literally fascist Nazi adolf hitler literally and also worked with Russia to outright hack the US election that I just start filtering it as white noise, with any legit complaints about the guy coming in one ear and going out the other.
He pointed out EXPLICITLY in the video that donald trump was NOT HITLER or was a NAZI. But resembled more of a Mussolini type fascist leader and was creating a type of fascism that disguises itself in American Exceptionalism and nationalism. There for creating an "American Fascist" ideology, that is unique in its own way compared to Italian Fascism and Nazi Fascism.
This is why im fucking angry is because of brain-dead dipshits who dont know what the fuck they're talking about say this crap.
He isn't saying Trump is a Nazi. Nazism is one type of fascism, Trumpism is another.
Are ya kidding? Lotta republican old-guard hated the guy and he only got picked for nomination due to the way the RNC processes nominations.
Before you get excited, the DNC one isn't much better - I think most people (myself included) would have gone for Bernie over Hillary.
That's dumb.
Eh i lived in a red state, and i can say a lot of the old-guard were cheering for the orange bastard to get elected.
oh yeah, he enjoys very tepid support among republicans

it's like you can feel them wringing their hands as they replace anyone who's disloyal to him
What would make you give a shit?
But really, don't be so fragile and take the rating personally.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not some die hard god-emperor-meme-trump fan of the guy, I think he's a bumbling doofus who more stumbles his way across but I also know that news stories about the guy gain more clicks and revenue so it's becoming nearly impossible to know what is actually going on and more importantly how any of it will effect me in any sort of direct way.

A complete 180 on issues relating to Israel and gun rights. I'm talking about a complete 180 here - not just supporting legislation on bump stocks. The report that states he may be considering firing/replacing Mattis does give more then a little bit of pause for me, but I need to see something extreme like enforcing mandatory conscription or outright waging war with one of our allies before I can sit down and say that he's this mustache twirling Machiavellian that people keep painting him as rather then someone who stumbles around like a doofus who really has no idea what he's doing
So you don't care that he was separating children from their parents illegally and against all notions of human decency?
When you start to have a tantrum over ratings then you are a true baby. I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings because I don't agree with your viewpoint that Trump is a fascist.
wasn't his kids
why should he care
See, the list of shit that people can just glaze over genuinely makes me think we're fucked. If the only things that matter to you are two relatively pointless issues, then you're not really understanding what you're voting for.
Your country has its own rules, and should look after itself. It should seek to maintain it's own citizenry and be attractive to outsiders so as to gain the best talent available. This mindset is lost with modern republicans.
Guns are never going to be voted away or regulated to death in the way you or many other gun loving americans fear. You literally have too much of the voting populace across the country for that to happen unopposed.
If those are your two issues, you're probably fine to say you are a Trump supporter.
No, because I also don't trust the media (All of it - CNN, Fox, Salon, Breitbart, Newsroom Joe) to report in any way that's even mildly objective. When I hear as a counterpoint that they're using images from the Obama administration to prep up their article.. I mean shit, who the hell is lying or telling the truth anymore? It becomes mindnumbingly incomprehensible to the point where eventually I just have to stop caring about it lest I lose what grasp of sanity I still have.
Obama also had similar camps, though he didn't separate families at the border
The fact is the Trump administration separated them.
A judge told them to stop doing it and reunite the kids after a week, and a giant public outcry.
To call that "fake" is to be intentionally uncaring, and disinterested.
You heard a counterpoint? Did you follow up with that, or just go "oh so the counter point was right"?
Yes it's annoying that this has to be done, but not recognizing basic acts of indecency done by an administration in this circumstance is absurd.

Seriously though, whilst a lot of more popular media outlets have become worse over time, especially recently, distrusting all media because of this is a terrible idea. The AP and BBC aren't objective - no news source is - but they tend to be pretty reasonable on most political subjects, if we exclude digital blackface, of course.
Maybe if you brain dead twats didn't have the ideologies of literal scumbags and narcissistic assholes. I wouldn't be having a goddamn rage.
And yes. I am having a tantrum. I am freaking the fuck out. I am literally going apeshit from all the insanity that i have witnessed and experienced on this forum and in real life. Cause guess fucking what. All the energy that i had for honest discussion and civil talk about political issues has been fucking spent by you twats. Nothing logical or what is considered to be even "Sane" at this point will never be drilled into your fucking heads. I have fucking tried time and time again to be civil as humanely possible for these past 2 fucking years ever since president McChuckle Fuck has been elected. Constantly trying to take the time to explain to you nitwits like as if you were a bunch of goddamn pre-schoolers learning the ABCs.
Yet everytime i tried. All of you constantly shovel up mounds of bullshit and raw sewage from whatever foul sites that spew it like a broken septic tank to "Back up" your asinine beliefs. Or you try to go "Oh its joke bro" or "Man you're overreacting" or "You're a crybaby libcuck" or whatever fucking new insult is used as a new half-assed attempt to dodge criticism and people question your belief. And because of that, i have lost all patience as of late.
So guess what. IM FUCKING ANGRY, WHAT OF IT?
I was actually recommended to check out /r/neutralpolitics on reddit by a forum user out on Facepunch's discord. I just haven't more then anything precursory more due to lack of time and forgetfulness. I also don't really use Reddit that much...
okay but he demonstratively is?
What the fuck is going on in this thread?
Me Breaking.
People trying to convince the unconvincable, and the unconvincable asserting that they are unconvincable.
Ergo, nothing new in this day and age.
My man, slow your roll before you get put into an epic li🅱tard owning compilation *GONE CRINGE*
