I don’t think it’s just the lawmakers that want laws enforced. Most civilians also do, in my experience, and if it’s a reflection of the will of the population, maintained by elected officials, it’s by definition not fascist. Fascism is about central control. In a healthy society powers are compartmentalized to prevent any sort of absolute authority. You can bring up all kinds of examples of injustices, but injustice is the fascism, not law and order.

Seems like waiting to interact with a hostile militant force is also the wrong idea. Seems like that hostile force needs to be actively run out of town.

fucking idiot

The media is owned. They’re attempting to normalize this.

Rule of law and law enforcement are fascism to you? That’s a fascinating opinion… lmao

Disgusting

Ah, I see. So not necessarily a fascist symbol, but a symbol of law enforcement. Okay.

Bit of a stretch, no? I certainly see an axe… but while all fasces are axes not all axes are fasces, obviously.

Yeah. It seems part of why he pulled the trigger on Mudaro is that Mudaro was dancing in a mocking fashion while Trump was trying to put the pressure on. He overreacted and sent in delta force with no plan for what to do after they got him… The US is likely putting a bunch of options in front of him at all times as they would any president, but he just gets pissed off and picks an option while he’s angry and sundowning rather than considering what’s strategically best for literally anyone else, not to mention feeling desperate as his power diminishes into lame duck territory. It’s starting to seem more and more like he’s bored of the game and just picking the most cataclysmic options, because he’s demented, so the whole fucking world has to walk on egg shells around the shit-pants fucker. He is probably also being encouraged to pick bad options by bad people that he trusts like the fucking moron he is, like Putin, so he’s always teetering in a shitty direction.

“Also consider that FaceBook is the largest distributor of Child Sex Abuse material”

Why is this not all over the news too? A rhetorical question. Sadly, I think we all know the answer by now.

ew

Pretty sure, yeah. It’s named for the behavior not the cause. The cause is his deep sense of inferiority which he overcompensates for both in his behavior and self-presentation as well as, I would imagine, in the construction of his worldview. According to his maladjusted worldview and behavior, he appears to believe himself superior, but he’s driven by a sense of inadequacy.

Nope.

a superiority complex

Agreed. TACO

I think that’s accurate.

They already could have negotiated a win win deal. This is as much about projecting strength as it is anything else. Trump’s (and Miller’s) power is diminishing. He’s in lame duck territory and he’s basically bored of the affordability crisis. The Epstein files are part of it, but more than anything it’s about how he’s losing his grip on power. He’s trying to spark a flame that’s run out of fuel by rubbing two sticks of dynamite together, and it was probably Putin’s idea.

A republican.
