is planning a putsch against their own "moderates."

Quote:Frustrated by their inability to achieve some policy goals, conservatives in Republican states are turning against moderate members of their own party, trying to drive them out of state legislatures to clear the way for reshaping government across a wide swath of mid-America controlled by the GOP.
What's next? Brown shirts?

They're gonna fuck themselves over. They'll cut up their own party and and as a result get less votes. It's happened before.
You really believe in a man who has helped to save the world twice, with the power to change his physical appearance? An alien who travels though time and space-- in a police box?!? ![[Image: TARDIS.gif]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=www.smileyvault.com%2Falbums%2Fuserpics%2F11195%2FTARDIS.gif)

Yes, that Nazi ethos of limited government and individual liberty. Laffer curve? More like Himmler curve.

They only want less government where it suits them, everywhere else they want more and more and more.
The world of today looks more and more like the 1930s.
America especially seems to be over polarized to a bizzare extent, with fox "news" leaning so far to the right that it makes Genghis Khans world view seem socialist.
As a Brit it troubles me to see one of the more powerfull countries of the planet become a satire of itself.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

No, you dumb shit.
Min is criticizing the fascistic nature of purging your ideological party.
But hey, let's willfully misrepresent!
Isn't that what you God-boys are good at? Misrepresentation?

I don't know. I'm a God- man, man.
Well, the people famous for "purging" were the Communists (Stalin), not the fascists. But you'd need to know history to be aware of that, so I can understand why someone like you would need it explained.
But parties/coalitions realigning based on core ideals isn't somehow fascist in essence. Happens all the time, in many different places in history. Happens across a wide spectrum of activity, too-music, philosophy, etc. Many organizations both small and large attempt similar things.

I shouldn't believe in limited government or individual liberty? Do you have any arguments, or am I supposed to mindlessly follow your recommendations?

A thing so infantile as to be christian in the 21st century can never be a man.

Needless to say you have a soft spot for fascists. But you are in no position to explain history, or else you wouldn't be so besotted by you rediculous "christ" in the first place.
But such as it is, fascists purges just as much as communists.

You'd be doing far better following the recommendation of the existent min whose recommendation can actually be verified, then the alledged, self-serving alledged recommendations of your make-believe god bum you call "christ"

Clearly I am better read up on history than you will ever be, since you can't seem to differentiate "famous (in your head" to "famous (its held in wide repute/infamy)".

I would hazard a guess that most of them simply start a new organization instead of knifing their fellows because they're not "pure" enough (ideologically, etc).
