I actually love the fact that stadiums full of people go to political rallies and get jazzed about policy speeches. It’s strange, right? But I’m glad it’s something we get collectively psyched about. In a democracy, it (usually) feels healthy.
Who needs it right? Let’s go harass political opponents, jail journalists we don’t like, have people executed on our birthdays like they do in Russia - there is no democracy in a 2 party system anyway, why keep appearances. Let’s go full fascist, that will show how we are better than the other fascists.
It’s not the same, it’s in the same direction. If you want to defeat somebody you must make sure you remain better than them, otherwise they may as well win.
I agree with you, I don’t want to tolerate them. Cool. There are still rules.
What do you hate them for exactly?
Speaking for me, I hate Trump because he is a bona fide fascist and some of his supporters are nothing short of brown shirts, and these people are not outcasts in their movement, they are welcomed and praised.
Now i hear your wonderful idea: let’s behave like brown shirts as well, that will show them. If we behave like fascists then maybe we can prevent the others who behave like fascists from taking power! I don’t want any fascists in power, left or right leaning.
Let’s not tolerate those motherfuckers. Let’s hold them accountable, jail that orange piece of shit for the treason he is guilty of, jail the jansixers and send them to break rocks, make those responsible of fascism pay for it. I have no use for more fascists.
That’s an invitation to the general public (including conservatives) to attend (could be online) a Trump rally to see for themselves. It wasn’t an order to go to the opponent (and heckle them).
I don’t really get going to political rallies at all, but what kind of losers with nothing better to do go to a political rally of your opponent.
It’s an attempt to intimidate or even start a fight. You know, like brownshirts.
Silver shirts to red caps.
I would have loved to see them fucking try. This isn’t 1939
They’ve been trying for at least 8 years.
In 1939, they came with billy bats and sticks and actually got into fistfights.
Today, they come with assault rifles and bombs. I don’t want to see them “try” anything, thank you.
Ehhh, I don’t know about that assessment
I can confirm it is 2024.
So… do you think the brown comes from Dear Leader’s diaper?
I went to a Bernie rally. Only time I’ve wanted to go to a rally before or since.
Same, Bernie is a cool dude, would have loved to see him be president
Same. He was amazing in Washington Sq Park in 2016

I went to a Bernie Sanders rally, it was 🔥
I’d be down for people going to Trump rallies to harass and abuse him.
Problem is, there is no exit strategy.
Apparently at a few of his rallies attendees have been stuck without buses. He doesn’t care what happens after
Also, he doesn’t pay his bills for the rallies apparently either to the city
Why not, it’s only antidemocratic if they do it, right?
I don’t think anyone called the hecklers antidemocratic for being there.
Democracy in a 2 party system? puh-lease.
He like red. You like blue. Everyone get purple. This, ooga booga, is more fair. Is better democracy, ooga booga.

Of course using your voice to shout down literal fascists is the same as gaoling journalists and executing people as birthday presents . . .
Intolerance cannot be tolerated.

No, intolerance cannot be tolerated.

It’s gigantic difference.
