From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech. It's only their right apparently.

A lot of people here thinking the USA is speed running fascism here.

No, the USA was always an inspiration to fascism (just ask the remaining Native Americans as an example).

That's why it was able to adopt into it so quick. Not that hard to change a car to gasoline if it was already running on diesel.

Is almost a good analogy, but that's not so easy 😅

Frying fat would have been better, because most older diesels run on it out of the box.

Who gets their frying fat in a box?

Well it did take awhile, but it's definitely easier than turning a horse into an electric car

just have to replace the engine, how hard could it be? /s

better analogy would be converting a (relatively modern) gas engine to E85, it's simpler, from what i understand

Yep, but to be fair, he's not an expert in archaeology, so probably he didn't realise.

Before WW2 broke out, the New York Times LOVED Mussolini. They kept pumping out articles about how much of a cool guy he was.

They really are speedrunning fascism this time around. They did have plenty of time to prepare out in the open and gained public support with no long term repercussions.

Remember when trump said he had no idea what project 2025 was and that he had no intention of implementing it?

Goddamn South Park being prophetic again.

Her replacement will be predicting a lot of Heil in the future

Meteorologist fired, picture unrelated.

Had to do some memeological research; that's Yeon-mi Park, a North Korean defector on the Joe Rogan Podcast saying "in North Korea ..."

she makes up shit about how bad life in is NK, like "we have to get out and push the train when it stops"

It's a problem that the purge of those offended by nazis/oligarchs hinting too close to naziism is this early.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The Nazi speedrun all around the world scares me. It's like they are competing with climate change, for who gets to kill us first.

Everything they accuse china and the opposition of doing it something they do or want to do themselves.

[–] Rozauhtuno@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Every accusation is a confession.

[–] endeavor@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago

Same as russia. Classic faschist strategy.
