    I wouldn’t say no one is paying attention. Rather, we learned that 40% of the country agrees with that language and actively wants a violent dictator

        Certainly not the record number of voters who came out in 2020 to vote against him.

        And the fact he never won the popular vote in the first place. It sadly turns out, there’s a market for Nazi/fascist hate.

      40% of the country agreed with the original Nazis. They copied segregation from the US. US Nazis filled Madison Square Garden until the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor. Then they were immediately shut down in the name of national security (and because they were all cowards).

      This isn’t new. The Japanese fucked over Hitler and he had to roll with it. Those Nazi sympathizers had kids and still exist today.

    I mean, I’m paying attention, the Biden campaign team is paying attention, anybody reading this article is paying attention, and so are most democrats, and sane Republicans. Don’t know who is writing this crap, but they are the ones not paying attention. A lot of people are very alarmed by the current situation.

      You missed the insane Republicans. They are paying attention too. It’s just a selling point in their eyes.

      I think that we underestimate how wildly uninformed most people are. They think there’s no difference who is in the White House, and there’s a ton of Americans who think Biden is a horrible President. They think that because their spending power was greater under Trump, he can return to power and things will go back to the way they were.

      The bottom line is that people don’t understand what drives inflation, and even less understand that inflation has leveled off for a while now. Prices don’t just drop when the economy is doing as well as it is. The high cost of living is a pain in the ass, but man, will it get worse under Trump when he starts his trade wars and immigration restrictions

      Right? I was taking a class on fascism at the time and it was eerie and everyone in the class could see it

    Everyone is paying attention. His opponents are horrified, and his fanbase is eating it up.

    What do you want to have happen? SPLC to declare the RNC a hate group? Because that’s never going to happen…

    Articles like this always makes it sound like it is some kind of accident.

    Trump is a fascist in what he says and wants to do. Give him power and he will prove it

    Honestly, I’m fine the news isn’t talking about it. Let him say crazier and crazier stuff to try and grab headlines. Let him get less coverage and less support and then turn these phrases on him once his campaign starts. I’m tired of hearing about him anyways and CLEARLY telling people who he is helps nothing but get article views

    We’re paying attention, we just have an inept justice system and a country full of people raised on an underfunded public education system who don’t hate Nazis like they should.
