Palingenetic means rebirth. Fascism is obsessed with the idea that our nation is in decay and must return to some mythic past. Every Trump policy is aimed at this. They're "restoring purity” and eliminating the internal threats. It's happening right now. We're at the start, but this is fascism.

The US passed has had a nascent hyperconservative authoritarian movement of bigoted jerks for 20+ years, and about 15 years ago it began to hollow out the GOP enough to become what scholars call a palingenetic ultranationalist movement.

What is the end game for ICE? Terrorize one city and move to the next?
How many "illegals" are they actually finding for all this effort?
Seems like we should be hearing about high numbers being found but we are not because that's not what this seems to be about.

Trump kidnaps a foreign leader and seizes the country.
Machado is power hungry and has dreamed of ruling with a fascist fist.
She will do anything to get in that bed.
So she has 2 choices: get on her knees and blow Trump or give him her Nobel Peace Prize medal.
That's how history will write it.

Here's what I don't understand about Trump & Friends: If they really want to force a fascist one-party regime, wouldn't the smarter move be to give us loads of "free" stuff and "good" distractions to pacify us, rather than terrorizing and pissing us off?

I’ve been told my whole life that in the US the trade-off for not having public healthcare is timelier and better care. But I need to see a rheumatologist - six months’ wait. A neurologist- same thing. Like what the fuck? Another broken promise.

Worried that if we can’t stop a war on Minneapolis, it’s going to be difficult to stop a war on Greenland. Unless Republicans in Congress suddenly grow a spine, which seems unlikely.
