      yup. if you’re on my frequency, it’s just in time for summer. and it’s going to be a wild summer.

      this is an old play (refined), bud they’d never even attempt this if they didn’t think it could work this time.

          i get what you’re saying, but i don’t think i agree. it might look that way in the short term for american republicans, but it’s definitely not the end of the story for this type of ideology.

            This was the last chance for the last hurrah of white supremacy before the world is too brown for them to be able to do this again.

              yeah, that’s a very hopeful perspective… who still has all the money? who still controls the world? who still decides who gets just enough to keep them from revolting?

              edit - and who has the means and will definitely destroy the world before it happens?

                You’re acting like they have any clue what they’re doing. They don’t. They’re winging this too. And there’s less white people every day. This was a fascist movement borne of desperation.

                  if you want other people to see your replies, you need to reconsider the voting button. it’s for visibility - it shouldn’t be used solely because you disagree with a comment.

                  and you’re not really adding anything here, either. yes, you’re right. they’re winging it. they’re idiots. and there ARE less white people every day. but this isn’t a “fascist movement borne of desperation” insomuch as a fascist movement borne of opportunity.

                    I think you’re the one who can’t see the whole picture. I’m downvoting your opinion, because I think it lacks perspective.
