1) i would challenge you to produce evidence of anyone of influence who believes that simply identifying trump as a fascist will deliver victory on its own
2) some of us just think that our job here is to help people understand the world they live in

Whether that’s an Elon Musk salute or something Trump says or some interpretation of the “real meaning” of one of his policy actions.
People will see the truth — they are fascists — and then victory will fall into the laps of the good guys.
10 years into the Trump era we need to move on.

Like, how much nazi stuff does someone have to do before the majority actually agrees they're a nazi?
The suffering of an asshole isn't enough to justify the damage done to everyone
A LOT of Trump voters think he's just a regular guy and will only learn the truth now that it's too late.
If a governing majority of the American people really are just totally fine being governed by fascists then why bother with anything
Which means the only rational position is to ignore that possibility. Thankfully, it's probably bullshit anyway.
not sure i'd bother explaining this to matthew vybzglacious tho dawg
I would like to hear more abt the aspects of on why this is ? Is it like the east india company settling into a government system on occupied land a mirror of this ?
Republicans and Right-wingers have been calling anyone vaguely left-wing a Communist, a Marxist, or a Socialist for just as long, but somehow, they still work to scare their base.

3. Victory is delivered

“Well whatever he’s not in the cabinet and no evidence Trump is a Nazi.”
Mkay
He's asserting that posting can move progressives' beliefs but not the "median voter."
Fucking perpetual 538 brain syndrome.
Ref: Cardinal Arthur Hinsley, in 1941, quoting Henry Edward Manning (Archbishop of Westminster 1865-1892)
The man is ridiculous and the only real language he understands is $$. Ignore Twitter posts, don't buy Tesla, stop using Starlink. IOW, stop feeding the trolls. They thrive on outrage.
Limiting exposure before they came to power would have been wise, but now we need to shine the brightest light possible on every transgression.
Also, what in the hell was Die Welt thinking giving this guy a soapbox on this topic?
We can point out he is disgusting & offensive for this w/o claiming he's a WW2 Nazi in uniform.
Also, explains renaming twitter. He can't do a bird.
the more I see the resemblance to certain (Roman, Mediaval, 16th &17th Century) inhumane methods of torture, punishment and death-sentencing.
His 'X' stands for:
Likely ostriches at best.
he is a white supremacist through and through
so are his parents

Possibly the best joke in the world ....
"I bought Tesla and secured the financing to make it a household name, but do they call me Musk the Tesla maker?
I got government contracts for SpaceX but do they call me Musk the SpaceX builder?
But you shag one little goat ..."
fascist intents, is the following: mythic past, propaganda, anti-intellectual, unreality, hierarchy, victimhood, Law and order, sexual anxiety, Sodom Gamora, Work will set you free
I think a lot of elites are reluctant to admit Trump's fascist tendencies because they feel they'd be obligated to respond in ways that they find uncomfortable, or could put them at risk.
This can lead to respectable people & outlets providing cover for Trump doing way worse things than anything he's done so far.
But our elites should be better than that!
America STILL hasn't figured it out.
It is STILL the job of journalism to provide the truth about Nazi symbols and intent.
