'Trump posts Nazi rhetoric and you're silent': Stefanik shamed over antisemitism hearing
Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) was publicly shamed Thursday for holding a hearing on antisemitism on college campuses the same week former President Donald Trump shared messaging said to "echo Nazi Germany."Stefanik also lead the House Committee on Education and the Workforce hearing Thursday as pro-Pal...
This nation used to kill fascists
We also used to be staunchly anti-Russia. Truman would be so disappointed in the current Republican Party.
Fucking Nixon would probably be disappointed in the current GOP, he was an awful man but even a noted doctor of journalism called out how much worse they had gotten since then and that was 20 years ago
This nation used to kill the "wrong" fascists.
Franco survived the war just fine.
Right. It's just the ones they can't control.
More discreet fascists be like, "why did you have to go and murder millions of people and bring the heat on us? We've got a good thing going here!"
Three people tweeted? Seriously, that is the shaming?
“Shamed” fucking lol
The same can be said for the far leftists here on lemmy. This post is 5 hours old and there are no comments on it. Yet any post about Biden and they salivate while climbing over one another to throw gas on that fire.
I’ve seen others point out this fact and quite honestly- it doesn’t get enough traction.
There are a lot of bad actors among us here on lemmy. This really needs to be addressed.
I think there's a perception of preaching to the choir here. A vanishingly small percentage of Lemmy users would ever vote for Trump, and Biden is just the default other option. You don't need to convince someone not to eat a turd, but if the other option is to just eat a smaller turd, it's fair to focus your efforts on getting people to opt out entirely.
FWIW, I will be voting, even though my vote is electorally useless, but I understand not wanting to cosign the actions of either septuagenarian genocide supporter.
Trump absolutely supports genocide. It’s proven. Time and again. So… Make no mistake, you’re getting genocide either way. And these people that think that withholding their vote will somehow change that are grossly mistaken. So they can either help their own country not become a fascist dictatorship (Project 2025) or they can throw a hissy fit and pretend they’re going to make a difference doing nothing.
Not voting doesn’t cancel an election. Far from it. It just makes it easier for the conservative choice because they always how up to vote while the left/far left don’t.
That's exactly what the agitators and such want - not to get people to vote for Trump which they know isn't gonna happen, they just want to convince enough people not to vote against him so he wins.
Co-sign? People do not understand what voting is and use these dramatic phrases. It's damage mitigation and it always has been. That's party politics: you almost never get your first choice. Compromise is the only way. Sometimes the compromise sucks but if the alternative is far worse, you do the grown up thing and prevent the most damage.
Based on when I'm responding to this, this post went up when it was night time for a lot of America.
Aannnd it’s not night time in America now… so, where’s all the outrage from the far left?
Some people have others to do at 10:30 pm at night. Not you -- clearly.
Really? This is what you have as a rebuttal? To try and insinuate that I have nothing better to do at 10:30 YOUR time than to post on lemmy?
Looks to me like you post a lot of nonsense and antagonistic bullshit at 3 AM.
I’d imagine some people have better things to do at that time as well.
What are you saying? That leftists aren't adequately critiquing the things Trump says?
That’s exactly what I’m saying.
Because we don't attend circle jerks.
ROFL… that’s all you do here.
