Fascism and the Republican Party

Republicans are allies with the guy who does this to people willing to stand up to him:

Associates of imprisoned Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny say he has been located at a prison colony above the Arctic Circle nearly three weeks after contact with him was lost.


Navalny, the most prominent foe of Russian President Vladimir Putin, is serving a 19-year sentence on charges of extremism. He had been imprisoned in the Vladimir region of central Russia, about 230 kilometers (140 miles) east of Moscow, but his lawyers said they had not been able to reach him since Dec. 6.

His spokesperson, Kira Yarmysh, said he was located in a prison colony in the town of Kharp, in the Yamalo-Nenets region about 1,900 kilometers (1,200 miles) northeast of Moscow.
Navalny is “fine — at least as much as possible after such a long stage” and a lawyer visited him, Yarmysh told The Associated Press.
The region is notorious for long and severe winters. The town is about 100 kilometers (60 miles) from Vorkuta, whose coal mines were among the harshest of the Soviet Gulag prison-camp system.

“It is almost impossible to get to this colony; it is almost impossible to even send letters there. This is the highest possible level of isolation from the world,” Navalny’s chief strategist, Leonid Volkov, said on X.


They sent a sick man who is recovering from poisoning that was perpetrated by the same man that Trump serves and Republicans are aiding with their denial of funds to help Ukraine defend itself.

Navalny has been behind bars in Russia since January 2021, when he returned to Moscow after recuperating in Germany from nerve agent poisoning that he blamed on the Kremlin. Before his arrest, he campaigned against official corruption and organized major anti-Kremlin protests.

Donald Trump, the man that MAGA Republicans are probably going to nominate as their candidate for President of the United States is promising them that he'll put the "vermin" who oppose him into prisons. In earlier statements he made while holding the office of POTUS, he talked about his admiration of dictators like Putin, Xi and Kim Jong Un, all of whom operate prisons with horrendous conditions. And MAGA controlled House of Representatives are trying to make it all happen here.

Oh, and Fuck Trump.
Yeah,w/a donkey dick preferably,I'd like to see the scowl on Melania's face about a 2.0 redux, oh and where are Jared and Ivanka? Oh, yeah Jared is managing his ill-gotten Saudi funded Sovereign Wealth Fund,willing to wager alot more hanky panky went down there than Hunter's Ukraine dealings.

Yup, Jared is working full time to cover up his deals with SA. Probably jumps every time his phone rings, afraid it's the DOJ. Not only that but Ivanka knows her father in ways that no daughter should. Arabella is of an age where Ivanka can't trust Donald to be around her.

So there is that.
 
Why do people carrying Nazi flags keep showing up at Trump's and DeSantis's rallies?

It's time to stop pussyfooting around and call MAGA GOP leaders and supporters what they truly are, a fascist group. That's the message Biden gave. Fascism is anti democratic. It is an ideology that as a central tenet believes that only a strong leader with absolute authority can lead and protect the people of a nation. Absolutist authoritarianism is also central to MAGA GOP ideology. It fails over time but small minded fearful people cling to it. It's simple. Simple, easily understood, clearly communicated and wrong.

Ok so let me get this right......

Let's say you believe ERB should be legal.....so the cartels support you and there's nothing you can do about it, does that make you Cartel?

Or let's say.... Because Biden has BLM followers he is BLM?

Your logic and propaganda of your own doing accepting the pill of manipulative "democracy" and preaching what your opinion is about trump does not make it true. It only shows what kind sheep you are taking the only angle that this puppet president can spew....

Not a bad analogy. I think you have it about right. I don't know what growing my own has to do with cartels, except maybe hurting their profits but BUYING from the cartel certainly does support them. Grow your own or buy local from local growers. Isn't that what everybody should do? Isn't that what this site is about?

I support BLM. I participated in some of the BLM marches against Trump's fascist movement in Portland OR. I was there when Proud Boys showed up. I didn't participate in the fracas that ensued but there never was a shred of doubt that the protest march against fascism was necessary. Look at who showed up on Jan 6 and led that violent attack on our democracy.

Biden has shown support BLM causes. What good person doesn't oppose police brutality against Black people?

BLM never once was linked to the looting and arson that took place at the fringes of the protest marches. I'm guessing that that is what you associate with the peaceful marches in support of BLM and in response to the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the police. It is fact that more than one arsonist or broke windows that opened a store to looting was a member of a white nationalist group who literally came to the march to start trouble. Not saying I support the arson and looting, just saying the police were too busy cracking the heads of people who were peacefully protesting to prevent or mitigate the damage caused by unlawful elements who took advantage of the crowds.

Damn right I support BLM. Damn right I participated in the successful defeat of the right wing fascist attempts to control the streets of my favorite city. If you aren't against them, you are for them. ANTIFA are heroes. They showed the country how to stop them

How Portland Stopped the Proud Boys

Portland, Oregon, witnessed early versions of the Proud Boys events that culminated in the storming of the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021; years of anti-fascist organizing and the belated intervention of law enforcement halted their activities in the city

“about right”, but not quite.

It’s the other way around. Trump isn’t a fascist because nazis follow him, nazis follow him because he’s a fascist racist p.o.s. Having certain followers isn’t by itself a conclusive indicator either way, but I agree it’s “about right” to assume that having BLM followers means you’re at least not very far from agreeing with their ideas.

And thanks for the neuroscience article. Funny synchronicity going on but I’d go way off-topic explaining that.

Tell it,Jared and Ivanka can't be pumped one bit about another run,they want things to fade to black on super fast forward,though multi talented Jared is certainly underutilized and underwhelmed currently ,he surely could be fixing the Middle East,Ukraine,the border,and detente w/China as well.

I'm sure Jack knows all about it or will!

Another victim of Trump, foxnews, the GOP and the rest of the bullshit artists. Some will say it is her fault, and it is to a point, but only to a point and public officials, politicians and media executives need to be held to a higher ethical standard of honesty. The republicans and foxnews are still crassly trying to manipulate millions of people, treating them as suckers and fools, it takes a lot of contempt and arrogance to do that.

I agree we need to hold public servants who are paid with taxpayer money to a higher standard then private sector but I do not have much sympathy for these people. Protesting is one thing and not only support it, I engage in it. But then I think okay, hypothetically, let’s say I was actually there that day supporting this orange lunatic…and I crossed the threshold and entered a public building or brought weapons to take my constitutional right of protest to one that can injure people that do not believe the same thing I do. Forgetaboutit. Do the crime do the time and that goes for me too.

She needs to be held to account, but so do the ones who lied to her, wound her up and set her on the path of self-destruction and threatened the US constitution and capitol while they were at it. They are still at it and the death threats to judges, prosecutors and witnesses keep coming in as Donald tries to squirm his way out of his reckoning. There was a pretty big criminal conspiracy at play here and J6 was just part of it, and it was also an inside job, meaning members of congress were involved too. They stayed involved in the plot, even after the Capitol was sacked and they literally ran for their lives from the approaching mob and had to shelter in place for hours.
