What does that mean "Republican states"? Because there are riots in Ferguson in a state of Missouri where the current governor is Mike Parson who is a republican; there are protests in West Palm in Florida which is under Republican governor Ron DeSantis; there are protests in Charleston in South Carolina which is under republican Governor Henry McMaster. There are riots in Washington D.C. which is under Republicans. But fake that defies his black and white bullshit
And last i checked parts Hawaii,Massachusetts,Rhode Island were all fine

Jewish Holocaust survivors have stepped forward and compared the current American government regime to fascism. That says something, because as they have also stated that there is such a thing as being so blind to the signs of corruption that at a certain point it becomes too late to escape the chaos.

On a related note (lest we forget) the Louisville, Kentucky police department released its incident report regarding the shooting death of Breonna Taylor.
While the four page report was mostly blank, among the information it did contain was that no forced entry took place (even though the cops used a battering ram) and that Taylor had no injuries (even though she was shot eight times). Now, explain to me again that cops don’t cover for cops.
If there was ever a police force that needs to be defunded, this is it.

Sure, and that's why protests are not (just) about Floyd's death but all other deaths of black people, and lack of any control over the police force.
The protests started over Breonna Taylor, and it has passed something like 103 days since Breonna Taylor was killed. And still, no police officer has been charged for her murder. 0. 103 days, 0 charges. 103 days, and still no justice.
And in the same time Trump and his minions do not want to face the reality, but instead are inventing and spreading conspiracies.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Cops in Buffalo were given the opportunity to make a statement against their Bad Apples when they cracked a 75 year old mans skull on the pavement. An opportunity which they took.... to stand in solidarity with their Bad Apple.
Not all cops are bad cops - say the apologists.
Yes we are - say Buffalo cops, with enthusiasm.
The cop who killed the recently deceased Rayshard Brooks remained a free man, while a couple who set fire to an unoccupied and previously vandalized police cruiser in protest were immediately jailed with no opportunity for bail.
Police malfeasance may contain itself to forgotten and marginalized populations in the main, but that's just a practical concern...for them... - given the opportunity there is no one and no group which they wont casually shit on at every conceivable level. This, because the police are accountable to no one, and they know it. They have routinely campaigned against any effort at accountability by insisting that they run a protection racket. Quiet parts out loud, I suppose.

Some similarities with the democrats and the Nazis...
The democrats have Antifa the Nazis had the SA brownshirts. Their objective is the same, to drown out opposition
The dems stop right wing speakers from speaking the brownshirts would stop oppositions parties from speaking.
The Nazi's didn't tolerate any other party or opinions just like the democrats. Their word was infallible
The dems have cancel culture, the Nazis had book burning... Same objective, anything that doesn't fit the narrative is discarded
The dems want to rewrite history and create another narrative... The Nazis did that, creating the whole "Arian race" narrative and final solution
The dems are heavily driven by ideological perceptions... Same as the Nazis.
The dems want a dictatorship, like Hitler...
The dems want state controlled industries. Like the Nazis
The dems love identity politics, so did the Nazis.
The dems are more authoritarian like the Nazis
The Nazis controlled the media to deliver propaganda and fake news just like the dems.
The Nazis used the education system to indoctrinate the youth just like the dems
The dems don't care if people die in order to maintain the narrative
The dems have made a pact with socialism, the Nazis made a pact with socialism
The dems have a huge sense of righteous indignation like the Nazis did.
Hehehe so despite all the fist waving, finger pointing fascist accusations its the liberals that are actually a mirror image of the Nazi part
U guys are such Nazis

I'm not a dem either you tedious simpleton. Is it a problem that the dems do these things, in your estimation? Why?
Do you agree with fascists and think that The Donald isn't fascist enough - because he doesn't do what the dems do?

None
Quote:The democrats have Antifa the Nazis had the SA brownshirts. Their objective is the same, to drown out opposition
But Republicans have literal Neo Nazi's on their side
Quote:The dems stop right wing speakers from speaking the brownshirts would stop oppositions parties from speaking.
Freedom of speech is not entitlement to a platform nor freedom from opposition or consequence. Republicans have done same to left wing speakers or even left wing professors more than once .On freedom of speech Republicans are hypocrites .Remember Trump wanted to alter libel laws so he could silence critics Fox has demanded firings for speech they don't like .
Quote:The Nazi's didn't tolerate any other party or opinions just like the democrats. Their word was infallible
Republicans are not tolerant in the slightest they view themselves as the only true Americans and anything that deviates from hyper nationalist uber jingoist views are traitors .
Quote:The dems have cancel culture, the Nazis had book burning... Same objective, anything that doesn't fit the narrative is discarded
Using freedom of speech and the market is not equal to book burning and Republicans have done the same multiple times
Quote:The dems want to rewrite history and create another narrative... The Nazis did that, creating the whole "Arian race" narrative and final solution
Not honoring evil men with monuments is not rewriting history (show me the Bin Laden statues in America)
Republicans try and rewrite history with nonesense like the lost cause myth and the bullshit about civil war being about state right as well as a long list of bullshit glorifying the war in Iraq and whitewashing American history (like the Nazi's did to German history)
Quote:The dems are heavily driven by ideological perceptions... Same as the Nazis.
That would be Republicans they view everything through a political lens
Quote:The dems want a dictatorship, like Hitler...
Again that would be Republicans .They love strongmen who flaunt checks and balances
Quote:The dems want state controlled industries. Like the Nazis
Nazi's engaged in lot's privatization of perviously nationalized industries, And most of their economy was in private hands, And lot's of allied countries had nationalized industries .
Quote:The dems love identity politics, so did the Nazis.
Trump ran on Identity politics and his base is identity politics
Quote:The dems are more authoritarian like the Nazis
Republicans are authoritarians .Trump has all but declared himself such.
Quote:The Nazis controlled the media to deliver propaganda and fake news just like the dems.
Again that would be Republicans (altered photos anyone)
Quote:The Nazis used the education system to indoctrinate the youth just like the dems
Again Republicans
Quote:The dems don't care if people die in order to maintain the narrative
Again Republicans and they even admit as much
Quote:The dems have made a pact with socialism, the Nazis made a pact with socialism
Lol pacts with socialists lol
The Allies Allied with the USSR (including Australia) and Hitler was always going to break that pacts anyway
Quote:The dems have a huge sense of righteous indignation like the Nazis did.
Again the would be Republicans they are absurdly so (they freak out about a dyed piece of cloth being burnt and cry when someone kneels during the magic song)
Quote:Hehehe so despite all the fist waving, finger pointing fascist accusations its the liberals that are actually a mirror image of the Nazi part
Nope that would be the Republicans
