    What you are seeing is the unmasked version of US politics. This is what US politics has always been, but it’s always been a lot more covert. The political parties do not have any issue with what he is doing, they only have an issue that he is so blatant with it.

      Ideas can spread but also get corrected when people interact.

      It used to be that people talked to each other and set the dumbasses straight whenever they spit out this kind of “politics”.

      These days everyone is just angry online and they’d rather change their online network than to change their minds.

      Someone should have told off Trump long ago. They didn’t, and since he chose to communicate official statements on Twitter, instead of passing it through advisers and secretaries who could advise him better, it’s only gotten worse.

      Fascism is an idea that needs to die, but it’s really difficult to confront the idea when the fascists hide in their online safe spaces, like X and Truth Social, where they only interact with bootlickers and block everyone else.

      I think the best way to kill fascism is to talk openly about it with other people offline.

      This is what US politics has always been

      sounds like donald quack is the missing piece that unites them all. The plot is similar to HP book when Voldemort goes back to power
