A majestic takedown of the media's delighted response to Trump's speech:

Everyone who defends internment is on the right. They never do it out of loyalty to FDR, they do it out of their own authoritarianism and/or racism. Whether you personally always defend authoritarianism or only when it comes out of the GOP I don't know.

I was referring to the brutal civil war currently taking place in Yemen, they're a failing state. I realize that this in of itself doesn't make it "ok" to launch raids there, but when you have targets such as the AQAP commander and two of his regional commanders hiding there, you probably think about conducting a mission to kill them.

When did I defend internment? Or authoritarianism?

And please, liberals have been sucking FDR dry for ages.

Your terrible reading comprehension here makes me doubt any of your interpretations of the articles from that monster fascism list.

IHBT, IHL.

You're defending Trump right now.

As far as FDR goes, most of my life the people you call liberals have run away from FDR. Definitely from Carter until Obama and largely including Obama Democrats were almost as afraid of being labeled an FDR Democrat as being likened to Che Guevara. But never do the Democrats from whatever wing of the party, no matter how much they praise the New Deal, never do they do anything other than condemn internment.

No, I'm not. Again, you guys are super confused by me criticizing you not being the same as defending Trump. Why do you have such a hard time with it? You can all read and write...

Let's do it this way -you're now criticizing me. So, I'm going to assume you are pro war, pro drug war, pro deportation, pro asset forfeiture.

Man microbet, you really do support a lot of terrible things.

You freedom hating reactionaries should look at what the liberals want. They want Trump impeached which means a true arch-conservative as POTUS.

That should tell you something about whether people are just hating on Trump because they are partisan. Trump is way more socialist, national socialist, than Pence.

Such a sorry guy.

I believe the word for that is a Trump/Fascist apologist.

You look around Germany in 1942 and say "damn, those people in the White Rose should really be more objective."

sorry.

For someone who supposedly hates Trump and the majority of his policies, you spend about 1% of the time criticizing his administration as you do Democrats / Liberal posters in this thread. You must see how disingenuous this appears right? Why should anyone believe that you don't 100% agree with his policies when you make no effort to criticize / analyze them?

Don't worry microbet, he doesn't really support fascism/racism, he just spends hours every day looking up weird insignificant details about cases so he can support George Zimmerman and Trump BY CHANCE ten times a day or so.

Yeah, lol lestat. I'll leave this to you as well, but I'd imagine the vast majority of your patients couldn't "easily" get an illegal firearm.

I see we're engaging So? again

Stop giving Tsao attention, y'all.

I get it. But I mean, if we all just sit here agreeing with each other, that'd be pretty ****ing stale wouldn't it? So I'm not disagreeing with people's view on Trump, just on how liberals, and posters here, are presenting those views.

Seriously, you guys just want to circle jerk and self-confirm? That's something you actually like to do / something you think is a good use of your time?

Kool, put me on ignore and go back to agreeing with each other. That's like the whole point of forums, right, a place to agree with one another. Keep presenting your positions the way you are, keep losing elections, keep thinking Bernie Sanders is going to save the country on his hundredth birthday, you've all got this!

You are free to spend your time being critical of whatever your want. But be prepared to be identified as someone in support of the Trump administration when you focus all your energy on debunking 1/10th of a post pointing out the dangers of Trump action / republican action instead of the autocratic regime that you purportedly despise.

Sounds like things at the State Department are going swimmingly. The whole article is pretty bleak.

All the talk about Trump's business interests in Russia, connections between his campaign staff and Russia, Flynn, Russian meddling in the election, and the charitable views toward Russia held by some of cabinet members, is likely to push Trump in the direction of normalizing the way he talks about, and acts towards, Putin/Russia. By normalizing, I mean moving in the general direction of US political orthodoxy.

If left to his own devices, I have no doubt that Trump would embrace an irrationally close relationship with Putin/Russia, which likely would be disastrous.

This is a long way of saying that Trump's persecutors may be saving Trump's bacon on Russia, even if he is too thick to appreciate it.

yeah, I mean it can be fun to toy with people who are clearly morons, but now it's just cluttering up the thread and is irritating because we can't ignore everyone

If people here want to keep posting inaccurately, kool! I'll also start making up things about people who disagree with me, it'll be a swell convo, I'm sure!

You are really bad at logic, like horribad at it. Many of the things you highlighted are indeed evidence that Trump is a fascist. Are they dispositive on their own? Obviously not as you selected for that criteria. But their inclusion as supporting evidence in the "fascist case" does not mean the case is weak. You being in town the night your wife was murdered does mean that you killed her, no ****, but I need to include this piece of evidence in my case. Same for the KKK endorsing a white nationalist.

Nah, this just makes you a TROLL. A libertarian's response to that post is either a thumbs up, or that is way too many words to make an obvious case, Trump is a obviously a fascist for reasons X, Y, and Z.
