1990s Russia may be the more clear path we are going to follow, with the oligarchs carving up the economy and supporting the dictator.

Gen Z males are not the Hitler Youth.
But they do appear to be unprecedentedly eager fascists.

@BuildToReWild WTF are you talking about? The President does not control the price of housing. Or avocado toast. Unless they do some weird stupid policy like a tariff.
They do uphold the laws and set a moral example for the nation.
The young people voted for Trump bc they like Trump.

@aqua_marang @MightiJamie Blame the fascists. Not the people who tried to stop the fascists.

@MightiJamie I blame Biden! He should have stepped down earlier to allow stronger candidates to run.

If that really is hispanic culture (broadly, obviously), then we don't want them inside the tent.
Equal rights are non-negotiable.
They can stand over there with the white supremacists and the other bigots.

@WajahatAli Except all the far left media does is stab the Democrats in the back and vote for purity rather than consolidate power.

Hey, no one listens to me, but people listen to Brian. Been preaching it for years. Invest $$$ in creating a robust left-wing media ecosystem to battle the right-wing. There's a reason why Bannon said the media is the enemy and not the Democrats.
Brian Tyler Cohen@briantylercohen
Republicans have a rightwing media ecosystem that repeats GOP talking points over and over, ad nauseam, until they’re seared into your cerebral cortexes. Not only is there no equivalent on the left, but plenty of D politicians still refuse to bolster independent progressive creators. They still give all juicy interviews to MSM, still break news on MSM, still pretend MSM is on our “team.” They’re not, and in fact bend over backwards NOT to be viewed as the liberal media. Dem politicians could benefit from validating the very progressive outlets that are actually doing the work to support them.

@sandiechill @gtconway3d @DecodingFoxNews As well they should.
The American people willingly embraced fascism.

“I say all of this not in anger, but in deep and profound sorrow. For centuries, the United States has been a beacon of democracy and reasoned self-government, in part because the Framers understood the dangers of demagogues and saw fit to construct a system with safeguards to keep such men from undermining it, and because our people and their leaders, out of respect for the common good and the people of this country, adhered to its rules and norms. The system was never perfect, but it inched toward its own betterment, albeit in fits and starts. But in the end, the system the Framers set up—and indeed, all constitutional regimes, however well designed—cannot protect a free people from themselves.”
