I mean a heckin company removed the posts!!! the psots!!!11! thats a heckin fasicm if I seen one
no not the attempted “coup” you stupid lib that was an epic prankerino
anyway, when do you think libs are going to round us up in fema camps?
Both of these things can be (and are) problems simultaneously.
big tech companies but they have the exact same amount of power as they had last week
Yeah this is one of the problems. Focusing on the two events (Trump ban, capitol riot) and weighing them in the balance is pretty pointless IMHO rather than looking at the larger problems that they’re illustrative of (corporate control of media and censorship, growing right-wing unrest).
But also, these things don’t need to be seen as one or the other, which is the way that the OP frames it. One can be concerned with both.
I’m not framing it that way at all, not surprising you’re being disingenuous though, the “leftists” who want to side with open neo nazi fascists because that’s what we have to do to beat the jews globalists “international bourgeoise” apparently are framing it that way
yes planting bombs is very much on the same level as deleting tweets, we are big brained discussing these high level ideas
How important would you say the media is to politics?
Is social media a type of media?
I would say its definitely not as important to politics as actions taken in real life, such as planting bombs in political buildings
US has been a fascist state for a while. Collecting Nazis after ww2 didn’t help either
Right, America didn’t defeat fascism, it absorbed it. And since a lot of fascist policies were explicitly modeled on American ones, it wasn’t much of a stretch.
Always have, its just a ‘new’ group of open fascists trying to fight off the old group that hides it better (take a smiling mask off a neolib and a fascist will stare at you). They were waiting for the right moment to have an excuse since one has a more bourgeois character and still cares about laws for the sake of property and saving their class from them, the other has been revitalized by a populist nature and is willing to ignore the law of its opponent friends and their companies to strengthen itself.
No matter who wins poor broke bastards like me are still fucked to hell. People are already in camps, when it will be our turn who knows I’d guess under a decade at the rate of this collapse.
don’t worry, the pharmaceutical companies and their candidate just saved us from, uh… the Mercers’/Koch’s/Adelson’s candidate, so I’m sure we’ll be able to reform this away
When we get to the fema camps I hope I end up bunking with more chapos, I’m kinda excited for it in fact, I was told there was gonna be forced feminisation?
