    I’ll note that the bulk of violent attacks in the US have long been motivated by far-right ideology. But Republicanists don’t want to admit that

    they don’t care. they’re just using this as a transparent attempt to silence their opponents and critics.

      I believe this is what Republicans call “free speech” and never shut up about.

        The “free speech” they’re always going on about is the kind where entities are forced to platform their bad takes and where they are not required to suffer consequences for their bad takes.

        In other words, not actually free speech at all.

    How is the internet conceived abbreviation for the word “anti-fascist” an organization?

    It’s not. This is simply a blatant pro fascist political movement to wipe out anti fascist ideology.

    So, basically anyone who would’ve enlisted to fight against the axis countries back in the 40s, had they been alive then, is on this list.

      Antifaschistische Aktion (1932), established as a “red united front” to combat Adolf Hitler’s Nazi Party and their paramilitary wing

      Prior to this there was also Arditi del Popolo (1921)

    “raising concerns” mother fuckers, this democracy experiment has been over. stop pretending and acting like there’s something else coming. nope. juet more shit until we collectively determine reality.

    raise concerns with what a strongly worded letter to assholes who can’t read and just shit all over?

    the propaganda is so effective that millions here voted for a pedophile. the pedophile enlisted the help of Russia and others to purposefully subvert elections and democracy.

    well guess fucking what, it worked.

      I’m fed up with this neutral soft-toned speech. According to these mainstream media outlets, we’ve been “approaching” a “constitutional crisis” for the last year.

      Back in January mainstream media outlets celebrated the “peaceful transfer of power”… into the hands of the people who were un-peaceful when they were giving it away… Makes my blood boil FFS.

      I’m really curious how all these voices will react when the government… oh come on what more could they do to break our democracy?

    As their own ghoul famously said, “Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.”
