The fascist tide is rising in America and around the world. Many Americans are drowning in it.
Donald Trump leads President Biden in the early 2024 polls. The Republican fascists are poised to impeach Biden for non-existent “high crimes” as a way of distracting the American people and delegitimating any future attempts to hold a president accountable for their real crimes against democracy and the rule of law. As shown by public opinion polls and other measures, there is a growing sense and almost palpable feeling of dread and despair, that something is fundamentally broken in American society and culture. Moreover, the country is on the precipice of a repeat of 2016 when the professional smart people and pundits in the news media and political class said it would be impossible for Trump to become president because of “the character” of the American people and “the institutions” and “the system” – and then it happened, and these same people were on the TV news that night, slack-jawed and shocked at how very wrong there were.
Unfortunately, the news media and other elites did not learn from their many mistakes in 2016, which they continued throughout Trump’s presidency. Except now, matters are even more dire and serious as Trump has announced his plans to be a dictator and that he has been chosen by “god” and “Jesus” to be the next “president.”
For those of us who have been sounding the alarm throughout the Trumpocene about the rising fascist tide and national emergency, this is all very exhausting. We have not been listened to. We have encountered great resistance from those whom we have been trying to help, yet we persist.

Top 10 black racists: Being a racist can be a ticket to success – if you’re an African-American
You can catch more of devega's biased blather here
and this interview
with Timothy Snyder is equally enlightening. Money quote:
Democracy is an aspiration. We need more democracy. We need democratization at every level of society. If you can’t think about having more democracy, you’re not thinking about having a future.
Why not just send people to the article rather than send them to MSN?
Best laugh of the day, so far.

Six of one...
Personally, I think trump should lock up the vast majority of these presstitutes, especially the one involved in the Russian Collusion SCAM and then Exile them to a Country where Pure Democracy exists, AFGHANISTAN.
RIGHT??!!!
And in my quick research on the pos it was revealed that he garners income in the ‘high six figures’ for this garbage.
The original source is always a better read, and it doesn’t have freerepublic supporting MSN.
Can’t argue with that, but some sources posted to msn are blocked here.
Even the journalist communist propaganda mouthpieces in their heydey couldn’t do a more Orwellian rewrite than this guy!
My hat is off to this evil genius’s creativity!
its standard leftist emotive, charged, fact-free sloganeering written only to confirm one’s charged emotions.
I’m not terrible concerned with what a Mexican has to say about my country.
Some, but anyone posting a thread should distinguish.
When people are sent to MSN and Yahoo not only is that supporting them but many will get caught in clicking onto their other articles and supporting them for more than just the first click and double click, (MSN always makes you click twice to actually read the article)
Diversity doesn’t come cheap. With a handle like Chauncey, he’s even more valuable.
But supporting Salon is a okay? 🤣
😂😂😂😂😂. That from “chauncee” at salon. Guess someone must read and believe this crap.
On rare occasions send a few to Salon, or every day, all day, all week, all month, sending everyone to MSN and Yahoo?
I could actually tell by the headline this was a train wreck, and that I needed no further information to confirm that. 🤣
The horrifying thing is that there is a significant portion of the 18-24 cohort that actually believes this stuff. And we let them vote.
I seek information and then put together the pieces myself, for me there is no such thing as a source that I trust word for word, I scour all major sources for information that matches, verifies, or contradicts other sources in a search for information, I also find information and news that doesn’t get mentioned universally.
