the Heritage shits, along with Russia, a dirty media, and others they just stole it. Harris crushed it
by God only knows how many votes were flipped, deleted, and blocked by shits like true the
vote from voting. Musk and Theil had their cyber shits get into the guts of the 2024 voting mechanisms
and make it so that when the computers saw an error from the rat fucking of the vote it stopped
the operating systems or the central tabulators from reporting that error.
Trump knew the fix was in. Hence his behavior.
Sorry to

Future generations will call this MAGAism. Fascism + the largest military in history + global domination + massive surveillance capabilities.
Lots of debate about whether or not this is fascism. Some think that applying the word to what is happening changes things. What's in a word? The word is not the thing. The phenomenon is what is important, and this phenomenon is unprecedented. Labeling it fascism does not necessarily help us to understand it. If left unchecked, this will be worse than fascism in my opinion.

(6,029 posts)In this critique of Lewis, it's clear that Lewis understood American culture better than the critic who wrote this:
"Keith Perry argues that the key weakness of the novel is not that he decks out U.S. politicians with sinister European touches, but that he finally conceives of fascism and totalitarianism in terms of traditional U.S. political models rather than seeing them as introducing a new kind of society and a new kind of regime.[13] Windrip is less a Nazi than a con-man-plus-Rotarian, a manipulator who knows how to appeal to people's desperation, but neither he nor his followers are in the grip of the kind of world-transforming ideology like Hitler's Nazism"
Lewis clearly based Windrip on Huey Long. Is the Kingfish Huey Long, a predecessor to the current real-life leader?
