In a set of fascistic speeches on Thursday, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, White House power broker Stephen Miller, and other top Trump administration officials labelled the political left as a “terrorist” threat and vowed to use all of the tools at their disposal to systematically destroy left-wing groups. Representatives from 67 countries gathered in the U.S. on Thursday for a meeting…

Let’s emphasize the fact that he is not saying people who march around carrying rifles and machine guns intimidating Americans in their hometowns. Nor is he talking about people who commit mass shootings. Or people who pollute the air, water, and soil that we need to survive. No, it is people with left wing and liberal ideology, people using their freedom of speech.
Fucking evil. I hate everybody who voted for this and everybody who didn’t bother to vote.
and the republican-lite crowd who never made fighting this an sort of priorirty while they committed genocide, you hate them too right.
Fuck off, we don’t need this “both sides same” crap in every single discussion.

then maybe people shouldnt start the same topic over again if you dont like the same answer to the topic. If you dont like a dirty nappy dont shit in it every time and expect a different outcome. You’ll get the same answer every time this is brought up, and that surprises you?
No, because I’m not a dipshit that needs to both sides this.
Because even if I hadn’t been paying attention to both parties for 20+ years and knew beyond question that one party was way, way, way , way, way, way, way more capable and willing to vote in favor of average Americans, I still wouldn’t be stupid enough to both sides this because one side is just so obviously better than the other, and in the current political climate, and for the foreseeable future, one of those two sides will be in power at any given time.
TL;DR - Take this trash both sides garbage to a platform stupid enough to fall for it.
No, because I’m not a dipshit that needs to both sides this.
You’re a dipshit because you vote as you’re told in exchage for precisely nothing. And then you tell yourself stories about had you had no choice. And its pathetic.
What Soggy said.
yes, well thats what the upvote button is for isnt it.
Upvote isn’t strong enough
Sadly ironic, considering that I think I’ve already seen this meme before. :(
It’s actually an original of mine. I used it so often, i can’t even remember on which platform i used it first… Recently i updated it with the Italian flag.
What confuses me about this administration is that they seem to be aiming to make any political belief or action that does not support them worthy of a lengthy prison sentence.
… but [REDACTED] is also a lengthy prison sentence. So they’ve removed the incentive to not [REDACTED].
In other words… why design a system where your opponents have nothing to lose? They will be pushed towards acting like they have nothing to lose.
Because they want an excuse to implement martial law that their base will accept. An “enemy within” that turns violent is exactly the pretense they’re stoking for this, even if it’s obvious they invented everything that caused it.
I see this sentiment a little more frequently than I see the following that I’ll paraphrase:
“They’re doing this to egg on a response [so we should not give them what they want by pushing back]” is an accidental or intentional PsyOp campaign.
If your opponent threatens to fight you if you fight back, you would choose to surrender before the fight begins?
It’s an incredibly effective PsyOp when arguably the largest downside of anti-MAGA people is their rampant apathy, and that sentiment is like gasoline to a fire. “Oh, the enlightened response is to stay home like I did in 2024? Sick.”

Nah, but we should wait until we know a democratic method (voting) won’t work to remove the fascists. Once we cross that line, then we can resort to the actual fighting back.
Because the best case scenario here is that they want us to actually fight back so they can impose martial law, but we don’t, then we win by voting them out without any widespread violence and they never got to play their martial law card.
If it doesn’t work, and we realize they’ve corrupted the electoral process and stolen an election, then we grab our pitchforks (guns) and properly do what a bunch of inbred redneck traitors failed to do on Jan 6, because they’re stupid and of course they didn’t have any semblence of an actual plan.
“We should wait until it is too late. That will be the perfect time to act. Just a little longer…”
Okay, if you say so. Again, accidental or intentional PsyOp.
people are just scared. rightfully so.
I totally get that. It’s certainly why I’m not doing more.
But “let’s not oppose them because they want opposition” is playing more into their hands than opposing them is. I get it’s a Lose-lose but let’s not go for the Lose because we don’t want to lose.
yea im not arguing with that part. Im just at the point where I can’t do what I want, which is to prosecute and properly punish all these fuckers according to the laws of the country they stole.
That’s exactly what they want. If they have nothing to lose, they fight back, then the right can point at that and use it as confirmation of their originally bullshit claims. Fascism 101.

Oh, sorry, don’t mistake my explanation for complacency. I’m all for fighting these fascist pieces of shit by any means necessary. You’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t, might as well do.
Label me a terrorist? I’ll show you one.
In other words, Labeling Theory.
You’re goofy…
… are you insulting someone for agreeing with you? That’s pretty goofy.
Didn’t really seem to be agreeing or disagreeing, you’re just saying things lol. Your comments didn’t seem to have much purpose other than describing in further detail what is being said like some kind of AI subtext generator. Hence, goofy.
I really hope liberals understand that when he says “leftists”, he means you too. Fascism doesn’t stop until people stop it, and it’s usually not with votes.
Actually, what’s happening right now in the US would indeed have been stopped with votes. You don’t vote to make the perfect world, you vote to minimize the damage. You can do all those other things that you imagine are more impactful the other 364 days of the year in addition.
He openly said liberals too plenty of times lol, he’s not trying to hide it. They want to erase the liberal philosophy from the continent it’s not about party affiliation.
“Fascistic” means like fascism. This isn’t like fascism, it is fascism.
I think a lot of people assume we have to be at full blown Nazi genocide before “fascism” or “fascist” can be reasonably used.
Nope.
It’s fascism now. Already. Currently happening. Here in America. Now.
We just haven’t reached the apex…yet.
This little dweeb so desperately needs to be thrown into prison for decades.
Or a pit of some kind, maybe snake or trash…
Acid, lava, oil on fire, hungry rats. Anything, really.
I’d just like to see someone slap him around like the little bitch he is.
He’s calling half of US citizens America’s enemy.
That’s treason.
The punishment for treason is death.
How dare you peasants think you get “rights” and shouldn’t have to work till you die for oligarchs! Just shit out more kids we can molest and get back to your twelve hour shifts that aren’t going to pay for your rent while we continue to destroy the world around you!
As usual, it’s projection. He knows the real cancer is his own group.
What I wouldn’t give for an opportunity to encounter Stephen Miller in a dark alley with no witnesses.
These loser fascists are so devoid of talent that it appears they’re just scraping the internet for what we say about them then turning it around to fit their narrative.
We’ve been calling conservatism a cancer for YEARS and he’s just using our own words as theirs.
As always, conservatives/regressives have no talent or creativity. They can only steal what others create or simply destroy.
If this nation actually brings justice back we’ll see this fascist on the chopping block.
All the “best” conservative arguments are just repurposed left-wing arguments that someone ran ctrl+f and replaced each identifying term with it’s counterpart.
The infuriating part is that the reason it works is because left-wing arguments are fundamentally structured better and are more compelling. At some point in the past, a lefty made that argument to the right-winger and they could feel that they were losing the argument, so they quietly adopted the aesthetic of the same argument and later deployed it like they came up with it themselves.
It’s why every right-wing argument has to construct a fiction where their enemy already holds all the power and has been in control for decades. Everyone can intuitively feel that they’re being scammed by an unfair system that’s rigged for the benefit of the wealthy. All right-wingers have to do is convince people that the structure of society can’t be blamed on the people with the power to shape it. They just need people to blame someone they’ve already been convinced to hate. Immigrants, minorities, queers, and anyone else who would tell them who their actual enemies are.
One easy way to tell the difference is that one makes their accusations based on documented facts and actions. The other makes their accusations based on the nature of the human being in question.
Additionally, that perceived nature is usually a caricature of the actual nature in the first place.
This is how narcissists behave in their personal lives as well
Miller deserves a shot in the groin, then let the medical team take care of him WITHOUT anesthesia.
Oh, and I hope he would die from sepsis a couple of days later, after agonising pain.
Centrist democrats nod in respectful agreement.
All while even right-wing democrats get called “left-wing” by these fascists, for not being sufficiently right-wing enough.
He seems like someone who’s death will be recorded. You know those drinks being saved for when tRump kicks it? I bet at least a few are for when Miller finally gets his.
100% fascist projection.
