What's really terrible is that the media was not even liberal to begin with. The RWAs have been pissing their pants about how the "MSM" is so very liberal for decades when they are anything but.
100% right here. Propaganda has taken MAGA so easily. Humans in the future will wonder why they were so easily hooked.
We wonder the same about Germans in the 30's, but I think I can better understand why they did. I have no idea why we did.
Its almost like the same parasite that infected the germans has slowly taken root in the usa.
The real mindfuck is that the current US governement makes the Nazis look efficient and people minded by comparison. These guys are so blatantly corrupt that they don't even pretend to be for the people anymore.
They're only for rich fucks
Have a black man as president broke the national brain. It would be like a Uyghur chairman in China. See how fast the Han chin se would break... Further.
Eh the US had cancer long before Obama. Nixon, Reagan, Gingrich, W (or Chaney if you like) were all slow walking things to where the US is now.
It's narcissism. Enough of the population became so self absorbed and lacking in empathy that they could be rallied by an enabler. Same case in Germany. Obviously 70 million Americans don't have NPD, but he has a way of amplifying the narcissism in the common person by convincing them it's righteous, as Hitler did.
The nazis fully admitted they were inspired by the US and how we treated slaves and genocided indigenous populations. And the US learned that garbage from their colonizer forefathers. Even now it's a bunch of jackholes in America copying nazis. Xerox of a xerox style, which is why they all look so cartoonishly stupid in their evil machinations. It's a circlejerk of one group of white assholes all duplicating each other because they think their skin and their money (never forget the money is a BIG FUCKING PART OF IT) makes them god's special asshats.
Well alas we've seen it all before Knights in armour, days of yore The same old fears and the same old crimes We haven't changed since ancient times
When the death certificate on American empire is written, the cause of death will read: “Opulence, ignorance, corruption”, or simply “capitalism”.
You'd think so but what did we used to say about Nazi Germany and now where are we at?
While we all have and know so much information in our modern age, the average peasant during the rebound age of the 21st century knew less in total then you can find on a single digiread today.
the media was not even liberal to begin with
Liberals have been eager for regime change in Iran for as long as their conservative peers.
Bombing Tehran is one of the few things Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump can agree on.
The difference though is liberals never went to war with Iran for the regime change and that’s a big one.
liberals never went to war with Iran for the regime change
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has repeatedly intervened in the internal affairs of Iran, from the Mosaddegh coup of 1953 to the present day.
From military coups to political assassinations to stuxnet computer viruses, we've been launching and directing military operations against Iran for over 70 years.
You’re really pushing this democrats are as bad as republicans thing hey?
The only problem is we’re seeing that it’s not true and it really feels like people are trying to push this narrative just in time for the midterms.
democrats are as bad as republicans
I'm using the typical definition of the term liberal, not the online leftist version, though. I know what you are going for, but probably about 5% of the population even grasps the way the online leftists talk about liberals ("shitlibs") and so on.
We are talking about a population that hears the beginning part of "Libertarian" and assumes that means the equivalent to liberal. Same thing when it comes to neoliberal policies. I bet the number of Americans that understand what neoliberal entails is vanishingly small.
Hillary does not seem all that liberal to me in any case, despite what the far right claims about people like her and her husband and Biden and Obama and Kamala...
Hillary does not seem all that liberal to me
She and her husband have been in leadership within the liberal party of the largest liberal government on earth for... what? 16 of the last 24 years?
If they're not liberal, who is?
Donald Trump over the weekend posted a graphic that alarmed numerous political observers.
Trump took to his own social media site, Truth Social, to post the graphic, which is called, "President Trump is reshaping the media." The image celebrates that NPR, Stephen Colbert, Jim Acosta, and others in the media are "gone," while noting that CNN and the FCC have both been "reformed" by the president.
All the people resigning at CBS News and others and all of the comedians that are being kicked off of the air should start their own network via streaming service online. There's enough talent and knowledge here being kicked to the curb to make one hell of a new streaming service.
If you are surprised because a fascist fuck is doing the fascist things he said he would do after being voted... I have something to tell you. And you won't like it.
This is what happens when a considerable part of a society has the critical thinking skills of an amoeba.
Playbook? The fucker is basically doing everything Putin is asking him to do.
Yeah...? He's following the playbook that Putin gave him and told him to follow.
Script. Trump is following Putin's script.
Is truly amazing Trump has 2 puppet masters. Explains why his sphincter is failing, two arms to the elbow is a challenge for almost everyone.
Wow, this is exactly what ~~Neoconservatives dating back to the Nixon Administration~~ Vladimir Putin has always wanted
"I'm not a puppet, you are the puppet.." Donald Trump
What else would you expect from Putin's bitch?
Distraction from Iran war that appears to distract from Trumpstein Files
Not just Donald the dotard, Republicans.
Im pretty sure he takes criticism like this as a win.
No, the ugliest part is that the opposition makes the same mistakes
I'm actually surprised. I didn't expect that he'd straight up copy Putin. I expected more. Don't ask me why, but I did
