    Here’s a quick How Fascism Works explainer video. Just so there’s no confusion about definitions, or what’s happening presently.

      That’s interesting. Also was made 3 years ago, before Trump announced he was running for president for the third time, so can’t even really say it was made specifically to warn about Trump. Though the fact that he checks all the boxes should be troubling to anyone.

      boo.

      wait for somebody to ask first, otherwise you sound immoderately self-righteous, especially in a humor community.

            LMAO! Maybe you think I’m an alternate account of that guy?

            But like, you can’t make up the rules for others.

              like, totally.

              so your rule is that I(someone who didn’t make any rules) am not allowed to make any rules?

                  yea, I’ve definitely been feeling a blurry anime power up vibe from you, so you’ve really crystallized your position here.

      As a New Englander, New York is not now, nor never has been a part of New England.

      That said,there are enough Trump signs and lifted diesel trucks around that I’m sure there are some that made the trip.

      Except this time, American fascism might even win. There is no other Roosevelt to keep the fascists at bay. The Democrats have become too spineless.
