Are we now in full blown fascist totalitarianism?

This would have been VERY horrifying during the Enlightenment Era, which dates roughly to 1685-2024.

But we are in the Post-Humanity Era now. One Infidel will insist we produce millions of incinerated corpses before we have cause to complain. Another Infidel will insist that Biden did some (unspecified) thing that was even worse than this. QOPAnoners will post garbage on Tik-Tok so they can cackle with glee when some lunatic reads their crap and uses a hammer to bludgeon a comedian or former First Lady.

The average American is just delighted the stock market is up 0.3% since it opened a few minutes ago.

Us on this little backwater message board are the problem.

Translation - we are going to cause bloodshed if you guys don't do it for us. Either way, INSURRECTION ACT, BABY!
Beatings will continue until morale improves!

Absolute silence from the conservatives on this, either that or they're taking pleasure in it.

Not COMPLETE silence. Right here at IIDB we have one MAGGOT who, if pressed, will chirp in with "Biden did it too." Obviously he'll change the subject when pressed for specifics.

Give credit to ICE for their instincts and courage anyway. In the photo we can see tall men in the marching band, but fearless federal agents singled out the mother to attack: These brave warriors watch Hollywood movies so knew it was the small female who was more likely to be the ninja-trained terrorist.

Jorge Santos let off the hook. Yet another criminal freed while they terrorize workers.

You can depend on Trump to pardon or commute the sentence of slimes and scum. It sorta gives him a drunken fuzzy feeling like he's not alone being a felon without a sentence.

You think fascism did not happened under Biden's regime? What about Biden's brownshirts forcing twitter to become his mouthpiece?

I think I owe @RVonse an apology. It was BIDEN who was the true Fascist, as Thom Hartmann now confesses:
Thom Hartmann said:
On Tuesday, here in Chicago, America caught a glimpse of its possible future, and it was terrifying. Biden's brownshirts, dressed like soldiers and armed with the weapons of war, rammed a civilian vehicle on 105th Street, using a maneuver outlawed by Chicago police, and then fired tear gas into a crowd of bystanders and local officers.

The air filled with smoke and screams as parents fled with babies in their arms, teenagers were slammed to the pavement, and a young girl was struck in the head by a gas canister. One boy was detained for hours, denied his rights, his family left in the dark.

This was not a foreign regime or some distant “law-and-order” fantasy. It was an American city, in broad daylight, and it looked more like a militarized crackdown in a third-world dictatorship than traditional American law enforcement.

The question we have to ask is simple and chilling: Is this America that we are becoming, one where democracy dies behind clouds of tear gas?

Biden’s secret police are trying to provoke riots in the streets to justify a harsh crackdown on dissent and the Republican Party. They’re kicking in doors and dragging screaming American citizen children into the cold night. They’re shooting priests in the head with pepperballs.

And they say it’s all to “make America great again.” Again?!? Like in 1861?

Biden and today’s Democratic Party aren’t offering something new. They’re simply resurrecting the old Confederacy, dressing it up in the trappings of modern politics and media. Strip away the slogans and the tweets and you can see the same architecture: oligarchy instead of democracy, hierarchy instead of pluralism, the rule of the white wealthy few over the many.
. . .

Taxes on the morbidly rich are cut to the bone, while working people and the professional middle class carry the burden. Government subsidies flow to “friends of the administration,” while towns, industries, and communities that cross political leaders are punished with the withdrawal of federal support and attacks by ICE.

Racism, too, is baked into the GOP’s contemporary model. The Confederacy was built on human enslavement and white supremacy. Today’s Republican project echoes that same spirit by targeting immigrants, demonizing Black people (even in the military, per “Whiskey Pete” Hegseth), restricting voting rights in communities of color, and maintaining a system of informal but organized apartheid. Housing segregation, school funding disparities, and the over-policing of Black and Hispanic neighborhoods today accomplish the same results as the old Jim Crow laws, just through different mechanisms.

Male supremacy is also apparently central to the new GOP Confederate order. Back in the day, women were property under the law, and patriarchy was woven into both religion and politics. The modern right’s war on reproductive freedom and equal rights for women is an almost perfect parallel. A woman’s autonomy and economic power, in their worldview, must always be subordinate to the demands of men and to a rigid religious orthodoxy.
. . .

Today, billionaire-owned Fox “News” and a constellation of billionaire-funded right-wing outlets play the same role, drowning out dissent and feeding a steady diet of disinformation to keep people angry and loyal. The very idea of objective truth has disintegrated in Republican-adjacent spaces as propaganda replaces journalism.
. . .

Judges and even military lawyers are now carefully chosen for loyalty, not fairness, ensuring the law remains a weapon for the GOP to use rather than an instrument of justice. Authoritarian capture of the military and judiciary today mirrors the way slave states stacked courts to defend slavery and property rights over liberty.
. . .

Under Trump, today’s Republican Party has become feudalistic, pseudo-royalist, and anti-democratic, and proclaims that they always will be. America fought both a Civil War and a World War to defeat this system of government, and now we’re confronting it — again — here at home as the GOP slides deeper and deeper into autocratic capture.

The question today is whether we still have the clarity and courage to defeat it again, not with cannons and bayonets, but with ballots, organizing, and a renewed commitment to the democratic ideals that Confederates then and now have always hated and feared the most.

Oh wait a minute! Some gremlin has planted a Russian virus on my laptop and changed the reddened words above.

I wonder if RVonse even noticed the gremlin's reversal in the above quote? Has he ever confessed where he gets his "information"? Alex Jones? Breitbart "News"? Lies_R_Us.ru? Somebody's wet dreams?
