    (more than it is already, talking Nazi shit)

    I mean this respectfully, but here’s a thought exercise: What’s the actual criteria needed to upgrade Amerikkka from “mask-off fascism” to “[actual] nazi shit”…

    Openly committing a genocide? Invading Russia? Arming and paying Ukrainians to terrorize Russians and communists? Brownshirts roam streets in larger cities? Hatred of Marxism? Oppression of non-state-sanctioned journalism? Brutal state oppression of opposition or protest? Perpetual state of war? Subjugating Europe? Leibensraum facilitated by ethnic cleansing? Industrial propaganda machine? Violent ultra-nationalism and military worship? Country held hostage by popular genocidal old man prosecuting a world war?

    Now start a timer as you look for the line that hasn’t been crossed yet.

      Nah you’re right. They’re already there and have been for a long time. I guess there’s no quantifiable measurement after they’ve hit fascism, y’know? So I just used that instead of saying “oogabooga BIGGER fascism” cause I mean. How much worse can it get? A lot, but also, not really that much considering what things could be. Idk

      Deathsquads, genocide, death camps, ethnic cleansing, slavery - inside of the US, without any apearances. Much of that is currently either externalized to other countries or hidden via the MSM.

      Remember fascism is the techniques of colonialism being applied on the homeland.
