chill thread to document the rise of the american fourth reich over the 2020s good stuff to lmao about ITT: senile conservative government unable to do FDR-style reformism, late stage capitalism scooping out the last bits of wealth from the corpse of the proletariat, emboldened white nationalist demagogues, creeping security infrastructure that will be repurposed later, and leftist infighting/incrementalism/anything that isn't militant organizations https://twitter.com/USATODAY/status/1360715132943405059 https://twitter.com/AP/status/1361337236042702854 https://twitter.com/macfarlanenews/status/1354871296664993795 https://twitter.com/tbh4justice/status/1361373807030624257 https://twitter.com/DWUhlfelderLaw/status/1354952521530413068 https://twitter.com/econhardship/status/1358775093913149442 https://twitter.com/khonnews/status/1358186473254776834

The Capitol Rioters Aren’t Like Other Extremistsquote:What’s clear is that the Capitol riot revealed a new force in American politics—not merely a mix of right-wing organizations, but a broader mass political movement that has violence at its core and draws strength even from places where Trump supporters are in the minority.

a few DRUNK BONERS posted:Why do you think there will be any stability. Climate change baby. ya i don't want to get too intersectional with the anthropocene ITT but the chapo dude summed it up well when it became clear we'd made the choice between socialism and barbarism quote:"Fascism arises because of the collapse of institutional legitimacy of liberal institutions. That's how we got loving Trump, and that's how we are going to get what's coming next after him that's going to be even worse. Because, if you think there's not going to be more economic and ecological catastrophe in the future, that liberalism is wholly unsuited to loving deal with, and that failure is not going to lead to fascism filling that loving hole, you've got another thing coming.

Giant moustace but i guess cant all be perfect. He came to me, tears in his eyes. Big guy, crying like that. He said Chancellor Trump, youre my favorite chancellor. Even better than bismark. But these politicians, they betrayed us at Versailles. I said like a knife in the back? And he was amazed that i came up with that. Knife in the back. no one thought of that before i said it."

'America First' Caucus, Compared to KKK, Ended by Greene One Day After Proposal Shared Onlinequote:House Republicans' 'America First' caucus was ended by Georgia GOP Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene on Saturday, just one day after its policy proposal was first shared online. this was the first trial balloon in the modern era for an explicitly fascist faction of the united states house. while blowback came swiftly, the contrast with the american politics of even a decade ago is sharp.

early in 2021, while the future Sturmabteilung was doing this: Top Oath Keeper Says Active-Duty Cops Are Training Militia Members for Civil War quote:Jim Arroyo, spoke openly about the close involvement of police officers. “Our guys are very experienced,” said Arroyo. “We have active-duty law enforcement in our organization that are helping to train us. We can blend in with our law enforcement and in fact, in a lot of cases, our training is much more advanced because of our military backgrounds.” Arroyo’s statement was backed up by Javed Ali, an ex-National Security Council senior director and FBI counterterrorism official, who said the Oath Keepers are a “unique and challenging” threat to the U.S. because a “large percentage have tactical training and operational experience in either the military or law enforcement. prominent and populous leftist organizations were doing this: https://twitter.com/itzyjerry/status/1382543441079328769

yeah we're so utterly hosed lmao Bernie was our last chance for an offramp but even he was a mirage, as it turns out. try to build structures of support in your communities, support the inevitable left movement (the actual movement, not whatever is going on in DSA and on twitter) when it does finally arise from amazon warehouses and big box retailers, and pray the interregnum isn't long and there's still some small semblance of an ecosphere left after this is all over. The good news (to me, at least) is that no one posting here will live to see if ultimately socialism prevails or we end up with the mutual destruction of the contending classes so our work doesn't change one bit.

Fascist Proud Boys threaten incumbents in bid to take over Nevada Republican Partyquote:On Monday [05/24/21], Nevada’s Clark County Republican Party announced that a previously scheduled Tuesday meeting had to be cancelled due to threats by Proud Boy militia members against elected officials. Clark County, which includes Las Vegas, is home to some 2.2 million people, who comprise more than two-thirds of the state’s population. TUCKER CARLSON RATCHETS UP THE “WHITE RAGE” ON FOX NEWS quote:On Thursday night, Carlson took his racial paranoia to its inevitable end point by predicting that America is heading for an all-out race war. After mockingly decrying criticism against “white rage”—a reference to General Mark Milley’s thoughtful congressional testimony that has been derided by the right—Carlson then invoked the Rwandan genocide by asking his viewers, “The question is, and this is the question that we should be meditating on day in and day out, is how do we get out of this vortex, this cycle, before it’s too late? How do we save this country before we become Rwanda?” Given that Carlson discussing was flanked by an onscreen graphic that read “ANTI-WHITE MANIA” during the segment, his choice reference to the East African genocide—which led to the deaths of as many as 800,000 people, mostly of a minority ethnic group—was clearly an implied way of warning his audience that the teaching about systemic racism could result in a similar slaughter of white Americans. nothing really dramatic here in mid-2021 in comparison with what will come later. carlson is obviously one of the more calculating figures in the american white supremacy media sphere. if he thinks it's safe to dial up the heat it's a reasonable sign the environment will support it.

In addition to Skyview High School, Alki Middle School and Chinook Elementary were placed on high alert and locked down due to the fascist threat. Video recordings showed Proud Boys chanting “USA” while waving American flags and wearing their trademark yellow and black shirts, with the group’s motto “F--k Antifa” displayed on their chests. Despite members of the group being recorded massing on school grounds, in breach of the law, local police apparently made no attempt to disrupt the fascist rally and appeared to look on approvingly. As of this writing, no arrests have been reported and no charges have been filed...

oh, that's because it's an omen of things to come. there are fascists sitting in congress who saw the floorplan and gave it a wink and nod. their numbers will only swell as a tide of climate and economic refugees flood out from ever-expanding zones of involuntary degrowth while a conservative majority, facing humiliation amidst a collapsing empire, demands a solution.

a few late notes after closing out 2021: https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1466870223483465729 https://twitter.com/GissiSim/status/1467286494532575236 The Proud Boys Changed Tactics After Jan. 6. We Tracked Their Activity. quote:“Over the past year, the Proud Boys have worked to embed themselves amongst local activists who haven’t been tarnished by the Jan. 6 insurrection,” said Devin Burghart, executive director of the Missouri-based Institute for Research and Education on Human Rights (IREHR). https://twitter.com/ABC/status/1472580622216536066 https://twitter.com/ECMcLaughlin/status/1479616049322491906 leaving 2021, we see the pieces coming together for an increasingly angry and desperate working class to become more open to political violence. however, we're still missing the kind of charismatic reactionary that can build a coalition between the american white supremacist and theocratic factions while pacifying the plutocrats. so in 2022 we head into the midterm circus expecting to primarily see clowns, even as a simmering unrest spreads in the cheap seats
