    Did I fucking say “Bush?”

    No, I did not!

    You keep using fascist Republicans and ancient history as your examples and then trying to pretend that there’s been no difference when “liberals” have been in charge – a bullshit lie that serves only to promote the right wing. Obviously the Democrats aren’t all that good, but they sure as Hell aren’t the same as the fascists and only a fascist would pretend they were.

    No shit Trump isn’t foreign, but he also isn’t “normal” or a continuation of how the US was in the '90s through 2010s, like you and others in this thread keep trying to falsely insinuate.

    Biden did not have ICE thugs kidnapping random brown people off the street. Obama did not try to deorbit satellites and close observatories because factual reality hurt his fragile feelings about climate change. Bill Clinton did not conduct a pogrom against trams people. And none of them attempted a coup or tried to destroy all the checks and balances of our government in order to set themselves up as a dictator with unlimited corruption!

    Quit your fucking bullshit, you liars!

    Fuck you for denying all the progress that’s ever been made fighting against it and normalizing the resurgence of tyranny. You are not entitled to just shit on American leftists and progressives like that!

    In addition, by pretending that Trumpism isn’t a regression compared to the RECENT past, you are encouraging complacency in the face of it. That makes you a fascist yourself, despite your false pretense of the opposite.

    Your comment is a racist denial of all the progress that’s been made since the '60s and is being undone by Trump.

    And the other comment was entirely correct that pretending you weren’t talking about Trump just because you didn’t mention him by name is disingenuous bullshit.

    Back in reality, we can acknowledge the US’ prison problem without denying the fact that the rise of Trump’s fascism is making it categorically even worse.

    I am not okay with the sort of backhanded pro-fascist normalization being insinuated here, and neither should anyone else!
