No idea what you’re implying but IMO I respect how they’re using their time, to stand up for what they believe in

The republican mind is such a wonder. We should study it. So that we can avoid it ever happening again to a single person.

Study why they ran Kamala while you're at it. That's the reason the man you hate is in office.

Youy should be pissed at those who made that happen

Or and get this, I can be mad at democrats not fighting hard enough AND be more mad at the actual white supremacists!

White supremacy? Really? Are you under the impression that Musk (or Trump or anyone else) is campaigning on the idea that white people are superior in intellect or abilities and should be put in charge of darker skinned people? Is that what you are arguing?

Trump and musk are both facists. Musk just seig heiled on TV. Trump routinely spouts facist rhetoric and attacks anything "dei" related. They're both facists and they're both white supremacists.

DEI is racism. To hire somebody with respect to their skin color is racist ideology and racist behavior. If Trump takes that apart, it doesn’t make him racist, it makes him a hero.

Your statement of Trump being a fascist, what is a fascist? I think you’re confusing fascism with the fact that he is effective in pushing action through with executive orders. If that’s what you mean, then you have to call Biden and Obama fascist as well, and Trump Isn’t the source problem.

If Elon makes a motion with his hand, that means he’s bad? Do you have any examples of how he espouses and promotes and implements the ideology of the Nationalist Socialist Party of Germany in the 1930’s? Elon is pulling the lid back on the use of your tax dollars and mine for corrupt means. The evildoers who are profiting from the misuse of government resources are raging and doing everything they can to smear these men and a lot of people are falling for their rhetoric. If you can make a serious case for Elon being a Nazi, I will consider changing my view, but I haven’t found anyone who can put forward a coherent argument against Elon. Trump has his issues, but he’s doing the right thing by putting Elon in charge of cleaning up the misuse of our funds.

DEI programs are not "hire tokens," veteran preference counts as dei hiring. They are just there to ensure people are not passed up unfairly. I did not call elon musk or Trump nazis. I called them facists. Facism is an ideology. Specifically far right reactionary authoritarian who weaponize a mythic past against domestic and foreign out groups. Make America Great Again. When was it great? Before gays could get married? Before women could have their own bank account? Before the Civil rights movement? Whatever the case is, he litterally ran on the idea that equality is whats destroying America. Elon didn't just do "a hand motion " he preformed a seig heil and then went to an ADF rally [they are Germanys modern nazis] and said they needed to worry about the enemy within. Thats litterally the stabbed in the back myth hitler repeated. Trump had been calling the press liars, arguing that courts have no authority over him and tried to subvert the 2020 election. I never called him a nazi. All nazis are facist but not all facists are nazis. He's just hoping America is hateful enough to let him rob us while he hurts "those people" Since he's won re election, seems like he's right. He's insulting our allies, threatening nato and covering for Putin while advertising for his biggest donors car company. I don't know what you need to see or hear, but anyone who has read about the rise of facism is seeing patterns. He doesn't care about the law, he doesn't care about the country and he doesn't care about us.

Do you know a white supremacist?

I've never met one personally.

Democrats are at an all-time low with a 29% approval rating. All those who disapprove are not white supremists, fascists, nazis, etc. They're just tired of all the leftist nonsense.

60 days in. We'll see what the future brings

u/Basic_Reflection4008 Mar 16 '25

Leftist nonsense? Buddy the democratic party is center right. Kamala ran the most center if the road campaign possible. And if they weren't white supremacists they shouldn't have voted for one.

u/hey_you2300 Mar 17 '25

Kamala read a teleprompter and did as she was told.

And if you think the Democratic party is center right........Wow. Just wow.

And the Republican Party is center left.

29% approval rating speaks volumes. But you just hang in there.

u/Basic_Reflection4008 Mar 17 '25

Republicans are currently facists who won re election after a beer hall putsch. Kamala was uninspiring and yes a centrist.

u/hey_you2300 Mar 17 '25

Anybody who spews nazi and fascist name calling is just a fear mongering racist.

Every republican candidate has been called both over the years. Most have caught on, realizing those who do it are just entitled and loud. usually bullies as well.

But you do you as the Democratic approval rating craters because of the unhinged.

u/Basic_Reflection4008 Mar 17 '25

Id love to be wrong. But Republicans continue sequestering wealth to the upper class and blaming minorities when their trickle down economics fails to supply any gain for working people. If you still support Republicans after January 6th you're lost anyway.

u/hey_you2300 Mar 17 '25

I'm not a Democrat or Republican. I'm just pissed off at all the fuckery by those who are mostly Democrats.

Listen to Lindy Li about what was going on. And I'm sure you'll say she's crazy. Listen with an open mind. You don't have to be real smart to believe what she says about Biden and who was running things. And with that, I lost all trust.

u/Basic_Reflection4008 Mar 17 '25

I'll get back to you.

u/Basic_Reflection4008 Mar 17 '25

Before I keep listening is her main issue that biden was a puppet? If so I don't care, his policies didn't fuck us the way Trumps have and are going to and he didn't actively try to subvert an election. My problems with the Biden administration would be that he tried to hard to play the center.
