They really are speedrunning fascism this time around. They did have plenty of time to prepare out in the open and gained public support with no long term repercussions.

Remember when trump said he had no idea what project 2025 was and that he had no intention of implementing it?

Man I was thinking I was the only one that 'membered that.

Goddamn South Park being prophetic again.

A lot of people here thinking the USA is speed running fascism here.

No, the USA was always an inspiration to fascism (just ask the remaining Native Americans as an example).

That's why it was able to adopt into it so quick. Not that hard to change a car to gasoline if it was already running on diesel.

Is almost a good analogy, but that's not so easy 😅

[–] Spezi@feddit.org 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Frying fat would have been better, because most older diesels run on it out of the box.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Who gets their frying fat in a box?

[–] Lumiluz@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well it did take awhile, but it's definitely easier than turning a horse into an electric car

just have to replace the engine, how hard could it be? /s

better analogy would be converting a (relatively modern) gas engine to E85, it's simpler, from what i understand

Before WW2 broke out, the New York Times LOVED Mussolini. They kept pumping out articles about how much of a cool guy he was.

What if we called the original people Americans, and the newcomers immigrant Americans?

Clarity: Native American -> American

American -> Immigrant American

[–] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

All life on land is an immigrant is it not?

[–] Potatar@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Not really. Those are human made concepts, so you must start from the inception of the concept of immigration. Good luck finding the exact date, since it predates written language :/

From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech. It's only their right apparently.

What happened to the right to speak the truth?

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 39 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Their truth.

Their alternative facts.

The actual truth is for snowflakes and liberals to get upset over.

It's a problem that the purge of those offended by nazis/oligarchs hinting too close to naziism is this early.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Nazi speedrun all around the world scares me. It's like they are competing with climate change, for who gets to kill us first.

Cmon this story doesn't even involve a window.

[–] WraithGear@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Oof… just because the Russians are our enemies now, doesn’t mean they were Nazis during world war II. They fought the Nazi a lot longer than America did for sure.

[–] makyo@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (26 children)

Yeah they fought the Nazis - but first they made a deal with the Nazis to divide eastern Europe and went on a campaign of rape and plunder. You should look into the atrocities committed by the USSR during the 20th century - Germany paid a heavy price for their evils. Russia never did.

Tell this to anyone in Eastern Europe who is not a Russian ;)

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

They were easily just as bad as the Nazis.

Everything they accuse china and the opposition of doing it something they do or want to do themselves.

[–] Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Every accusation is a confession.

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 week ago

Same as russia. Classic faschist strategy.
