In the 1930s, American fascists were funded by Germany — to stop the US from protecting democracy in Europe.

In the 2020s, American fascists are funded by Russia — to stop the US from protecting democracy in Europe.

We defeated them then. We will defeat them again.

@tristansnell I shall take it on faith, Tristan. But I’ll never get this evening back. My poor 84 y/o Mom called me crying, asking me to watch and text so she wouldn’t have to suffer it alone, as I’m in hospital for the week. Had some hurried explaining to do to the nouveau night nurse. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Paramount went with a pointed screening of Indiana Jones the Nazi Edition.

Buddha save us! Because we lost Sec. Albright.

@tristansnell I never thought I'd find myself wishing for someone like McCarthy in the federal government, but here we are.

@tristansnell the.problem is that the necessary tools have been criminalized in almost all places...

@tristansnell @kkarhan It's funny, because you can't pretend fighting fascisms as long as you think in a paradigm where the US is the center of the world, and the US imperialism and colonialisms are not an issue, as all forms of imperialisms and colonialisms.

Imperialisms, colonialisms and fascisms are not separable, they live in synergy.

@tristansnell The US has never "protected democracy"...

@tristansnell I honestly hope that happens, because I saw how bad it was during 1939 to 1945 and that war was necessary, and we kicked Germany and Japan's asses so badly that now they're our friends.

@tristansnell
And this time we won’t wait until the war’s been going on for over a year to get involved. It’s going on right now…here in America and elsewhere…and we’d best be fighting with more than hopes and wishes.

@tristansnell let's do it at the ballot box and not with guns and bombs this time.

@tristansnell

I hope, this time we do not need a war to get the fascist out.

@tristansnell Picture how that sounds heard from Europe? Can't you do your thing without enroling a whole continent as a foil.
