Ain’t gauche no more.

joeanvar.bsky.social•57 days ago

They try to keep America stupid enough to not know the playbook they’re running. Trying to make it a sin to say the word ‘Nazis’ and the name ‘Hitler’ in association with Trump. Need more people in the media to start calling them out on their Nazi shit

Republicans a HATE fueled party

This guy chose to believe in a massive, coordinated media strategy that “omits” things. OTOH, I’m sure he believes the propaganda fed from Fox, Newsmax, Alex Jones, etc. How do people get there?

vickiehinkley.bsky.social•57 days ago

I still don't use the word myself - but no longer cringe when others do to describe/call this/them out.

Looks like the term Geekstapo is truly fitting

unsubsam.bsky.social•57 days ago

I didn't need to read all that to know they're Nazis. All that shit's just their rationalizations. You know them by their actions. And they may not be German. And this ain't 33, but these motherfuckers are Nazis.

clintpup.bsky.social•57 days ago

A literal blood-libeler?! Wow.

colettewildflower.bsky.social•57 days ago

After reading this 1990 interview in 2015, I called Trump a Nazi. In the interview his family called him a Nazi so why shouldn't I. https://archive.vanityfair.com/article/1990/9/after-the-gold-rush

Cue the "WELL ACTUALLY they aren't registered members of the American Nazi Party that we can prove so it's semantically inaccurate to call them Nazis" op ed

big-not-good.bsky.social•57 days ago

So we're dealing with Indiana Jones level Nazis...?

Stupid, bumbling, incompetent and VERY punchable?

Cool. 😎

Me thinks we need an archaeologist...

pauldu.bsky.social•57 days ago

post-WWII world had those who kept the nazi flame burning - racial hatred, ethnic purity, power controlled by the ubèrwealthy - mostly in the shadows through. It’s In full view now. It seems to be gaining in numbers of active stooges and in tacit support

gaines-law.com•57 days ago

The truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things are way out of hand.

teamquimby.bsky.social•56 days ago

That’s what is so frustrating trying to explain to people who associate financial success with intelligence. The dumbest meat heads from my high school are in finance. They’re worth millions and I’m shocked they don’t drown in the shower

nitesounds.bsky.social•57 days ago

Fuelled by conspiracy & incompetence. Spot on.

ruthz.bsky.social•57 days ago

Oh, you mean those very fine people?

What amazes me is that he told us for years that’s who he was cozying up to. But people still downplayed it.

And here we are.

experimental22.bsky.social•57 days ago

Please note that Musk posted 14 American flags in response to Trump’s dictatorial decree yesterday. The 14 words are a white supremacist motto. Musk is over and over telling us who he is, and it is Hitlerian.

lizlgenealogy.bsky.social•57 days ago

You’re responding to someone who posted about this yesterday.

cbizon.bsky.social•57 days ago

Why do republicans love Nazis?

thefool37.bsky.social•57 days ago

People need to think a lot harder about how certain things come to be considered "gauche"

mcrafa.bsky.social•57 days ago

Can fascists once in a millennia actually stand for what they believe, instead of code words and citing literature.

Fuck sake

theultrasecret.bsky.social•57 days ago

A lot of time and intellectual energy has been wasted on such questions as “is Trump a fascist?” and “can it happen here?” when the answers have been obvious all along (yes and it’s always been happening respectively).

tuikkunen.bsky.social•57 days ago

Every time I see these DOGE kids I think: Who are their parents? Where were they when their kids got radicalized? Are they proud of their children now?

tuikkunen.bsky.social•57 days ago

LOL. Probably called their lawyer, if they aren't lawyers themselves.

jmchao.bsky.social•57 days ago

I guess it's a relief that our Nazis are incapable of letting things remain subtext?

pataz1.bsky.social•57 days ago

CNN even argued we shouldn’t call Trump’s fascism “fascism” because it would potentially alienate Trump voters.

Could you imagine ANY news source saying the same about liberal and progressives?

monsata.bsky.social•57 days ago

Even supposedly "left-wing media" labels any concept even slightly left of the far-right as full-on Communism, as has been made explicitly clear over the last year.

We are a deeply unserious nation, "informed" by groups who care more about their income stream than actually reporting the news.

Can we get a source for Kliger's piece beyond a screenshot?

etegamist.bsky.social•57 days ago

It was there this morning. He has apparently taken it down. He had it so the full text and comments were behind a paywall unlike the G@etz apologia he posted.

christinekooi.bsky.social•57 days ago

Where was it? On the Unz Review website?

etegamist.bsky.social•57 days ago

radbeard.bsky.social•57 days ago

And its still considered gauche!

hyekeen.bsky.social•57 days ago

We have drastically underestimated the philosophy, planning and passion of the far right. We do need some major reform but certainly not the kind they are enacting in DC.

acadianrunner.bsky.social•57 days ago

Do they even listen to themselves? In same sentence brag about making millions in a system, then say that THEY were the victims of that system?

dpk.net•57 days ago

Can one be a Republican and not feel like a victim 24x7?

acadianrunner.bsky.social•57 days ago

It has been their identity for at least 40 years, so… no?

persianx6.bsky.social•57 days ago

Far right ideology is often a series of contradictions with no examination

mjmm24.bsky.social•57 days ago

My mom, who passed last year at 93, has been calling Trump “a Hitler” since 2015.

hulkling-she-her.bsky.social•57 days ago

maga should just rebrand to the american nazi party

jeffthompson48.bsky.social•57 days ago

I remember back in 2016 on Twitter when I called Trump mean names and liberals would be angry at me for acting just like them. "When they go low we go high".

marisakabas.bsky.social•57 days ago

sorry still not past one of the main DOGE guys saying he was directly inspired by a nazi to work for this white house.

I really like the fact that we're dealing with Indiana Jones level Nazis.

Bumbling, stupid, incompetent, and VERY punchable...

jacobharr.is•57 days ago

He's currently now trying to get access to everybody's tax returns in the IRS after being in the CFPB most recently

We should never get past all this

marisakabas.bsky.social•57 days ago

looks like kliger deleted his post. did anyone grab the full text before he deleted?

seanlb.bsky.social•57 days ago

I don't know that they've posted the whole thing, but apparently Mother Jones saved it before it was deleted.

dkreutzer.bsky.social•57 days ago

Weird that he would delete it. He seemed so proud of explaining that, really, he's a hero.

bergerbeebs.bsky.social•57 days ago

He was just being honest, the little 💩.

braincooksheart.bsky.social•57 days ago

And he used to work for Databricks… a huge tech company with a valuation of 62 billion dollars.

It's like the country was in an abusive relationship and being gaslit out of trusting the red flags.

jakeschlachter.bsky.social•57 days ago

Musk tweeted yesterday exactly 14 US flags (i.e. 14 flags = the 14 words, a neo-Nazi code.)

A toast to everyone who called me an alarmist, from 2016 to the week before the 2024 election, because I compared Trump to Hitler and/ or Mussolini. If only I had made money bets with all of them.
