I don't mind calling people Trumpers who 'hold their nose' and vote for him or even those who think they're slick and vote for a 3rd party candidate- I'm talking people who exhibit zero urgency about the dangers Trump presents and so are looking to ease their conscience or how they look in public before they are looking to defeat Trumpism. It may be soft Trumping, but it's still Trumping."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

I am talking about when you post something about Biden and the immediate response is a series of posts on how trump is worse. Like I need to be convinced that trump is awful. Ha.Originally posted by smokymountainrain View Post
i'm fairly confident at least three of those have never called anybody on this board a trumper for criticizing biden. (i can see fusnik doing that, but i highly doubt the others have done so)

Jeff, because I did that with one of the dementia jokes doesn't mean that always happens. When I think about it, it's probably because has so much other concerning insidious shit going on that it would be one of the milder concerns. But the jokes seem to always imply that he is the only foggy old codger, and that whoever else is running isn't so bad in that way. And FTR, he does seem like like a reanimated corpse, McConnell is starting too as well, but Feinstein is the worst. I don't think people, aside from like 2 individuals are MAGA simps. If I point that out too often cut me a bit of slack.Originally posted by Jeff Lebowski View Post

One of Trump's accomplishments has been saying things that give scumbags the feeling that political violence mixed with a touch of racism is acceptable. But this kind of bullshit behavior is not ok. I favor throwing the book at anyone who threatens to kill over politics. It's insane and at least right now is coming almost exclusively from the extreme right. Enough is enough.

If he had managed to pull off any part of his coup the violence would have been unprecedented. If he can't see that he's an idiot. If he doesn't care, he's evil. Pretty sure he's a combo.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View Post

It would be chaotic and social structures breaking down. Riots and violence against the police would happen I'm sure. The right's violence has the potential to be scarily ordered and directed.Originally posted by Non Sequitur View Post

One significant thing that has come from MAGA has been the right's ability to organize and coalesce. Legitimate hate groups have been tolerated if not embraced by previously mainstream elements of the GOP.
The movement is immune to legit criticism. Otherwise normal people have such an anemic diet they dismiss legitimate news that isn't hagiographic as false. The term mainstream media shouldn't be a slur. They get stories right about more than bobble-headed Ben Shapiro or a parade of Trumpists dressed as a news network like OAN or Newsmax. Do you guys remember the last time those outlets broke a massive, important story? Neither do I.
People like Tucker Carlson, Matt Walsh, and Charlie Kirk are thought leaders and increasingly say the quiet part out load. Spouting the Nazi "Great Replacement" theory (and yes, it is a theory sprouted by and touted by modern fascists). In previous years, those three would be outliers.
Most of the Republican votary believes disproven election conspiracy theories.

Poor Jenna indeed. She knowingly waded into the swamp and then got bit by the alligator.
