Its nothing specific to the US...Its part of the human condition. That's what happens in societies, given certain circumstances.
Yes, I know you are right. I find that even more depressing. I used to call myself a Secular Humanist but I no longer do so. The MAGAts have made me realize our species needs improvement. I thought we were better than this.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Assumptions are always made based on what you look like. It's simply what we do in place of actually getting to know anyone.
For instance, people assume I'm a conservative just because I'm an aging white male. What was interesting at work was my co-workers attempting to suss me out, but I don't do politics at work.

The time for prevention was in the 90's. What we're looking at isn't something that's happening, it's something that already happened.

Trump administration lies to save ballroom construction, claiming the vanity project as a matter of national security.

A TACO In The Making
Quote:President Donald Trump is facing a bombshell demand to turn over his medical records as one of his lawsuits against his enemies backfires.
The demand was made in legal papers filed by the board of journalism’s most prestigious prize, the Pulitzer, as part of a defamation lawsuit Trump filed in 2022 over reporting on an investigation into his Russia ties. Now, however, the Pulitzer board’s attorneys have hit back in the most personal way possible for the ailing, 79-year-old president. They have given him 30 days to hand over all tax documents and all documents concerning his medical or psychological health.
If he is claiming that the awards caused him financial losses and mental anguish, it seems reasonable that he should be asked to prove it. Since he will never hand over these records, I’m willing to bet pounds to pence that he quietly drops the suit.

That is what makes me the most depressed about this.

Kind of shitstain that does not mind fascism. It does say that country is in deep shit but that's not unique to USA - Poland have it's share of fascists too and to be honest I find the fact that they are here to be beyond grotesque and far more damning than in US case.
Fascism is worldwide illness, one that merely was pushed into shadow for time being but is making it's return now (as in last 10 - 20 years). History it seems truly repeats as a farce.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.
