you know how every accusation by #GOP #Republicans #MAGA is projection?

well, what is the one significant difference between American and European #fascism?

American fascists see THE CORPORATION as the organizing structure for ALL of society; untethered from birthright nobility and geographic nation-states

Trump & Republicans, as #corporatist fascists, believe no laws applicable to governments apply to them: A CORPORATION IS DOING THE “PREDATORY INCURSION” AND INVASION, not a government.

this message is important enough, am adding #AltText for this sentence:

❝…but it reflects a growing student backlash… to the idea that fascism can wear a suit and still get a seat at the table.❞

THIS IS NOT JUST ABOUT REPUBLICANS BUT THE #GENOCIDE SUPPORTING #DEMOCRATS AS WELL

when i have written about #corporatist democrats, i meant FASCISTS IN SUITS. yes, most of the gerontocracy of the DNC are fascists, starting with Biden.

fascism-lite is still #fascism

BREAKING: A post on Harvard’s Sidechat app; where users must verify with a .edu email, is going viral after calling to blacklist Trump supporters on campus. “Don’t let them inta clubs. Don’t be friends with them. Don’t date them. Bring back real social consequences for politically affiliating with a fascist.” It’s anonymous, but it reflects a growing student backlash, not just to Trump’s policies, but to the idea that fascism can wear a suit and still get a seat at the table. The culture war just met the campus wall And students are done playing nice.

do you know how poor you have to be to get the pittance offered by #SNAP after decades of #cruelty fueled cuts to the program, ESPECIALLY under the #neoliberal #corporatist austerity-loving Clinton administration?

Bill Clinton is the Democratic Party’s Ronald Reagan in all of his fascism-lite awfulness.

am now following #25abril which is the date, in 1974, when the portuguese people overthrew the USA-backed #corporatist #fascist #dictatorship of Marcelo Caetano.
m.youtube.com/watch?v=36K79SUi

it marks the success of the Revolução dos Cravos:

The Carnation Revolution
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnatio

i’ve had friends describe it as Europe’s most successful leftist revolution, EVER. yes, even above the French and needless to say, the Russians. why? it was, from the very beginning #antifascist

@SueInRockville Interesting and highly illustrative to see mention each of these dogshit, #pandering #sheepdogs that approved of #genocide but conspicuously no mention of an actual leftist like #rashidatlaib.

I see you.

#warren #aoc and ESPECIALLY the CIA-affiliated #pritzker are instant red flags for me.
Verdict:
You’re astroturfing support exclusively for fake leftists, trying to co-opt leftism using #stagemanaged #grandstanding #corporatist #posers feigning #resistance.

@europesays

In essence the #NeoLiberals of #Europe have to make a decision, to either fortify a mutual alliance without the #US, or let the fabric of Europe be torn apart by a totalitarian fascist.

European #liberals are mostly dickless #corporatist wonders. Not as bad as the #democrats, but still.

It's therefore time that #Lithuania, #Poland and #Romania step up, because #Germany and #France won't do shit. They'll stand back and let it happen.

Side note: l'm starting to prefer the terms "corporatist" "corporatism" to "neoliberal" and "neoliberalism".

They get straight to the point, avoiding confusion with the modern meaning of "liberal" ("inclusive" or "cosmopolitan"). Or with the beliefs of genuine libertarians, who oppose corporate rule as much as the rest of us, but are sometimes taken in by corporatist ideas (as we on the left are sometimes taken in by statist ideas).

‘We’re all sitting ducks’ without more substantial gun control, Georgia senator says

The Gun Violence Archive defines a mass shooting as one in which four or more victims are killed or wounded.
A mass murder is one in which four or more victims are killed.

J D #Vance “talks about hardening our schools and making them secure
– well the reality is this is happening in spas, in shopping malls”, Senator Raphael #Warnock said on CNN.

💥“It’s happening in houses of worship, in medical clinics.
🆘“What are we going to do? Make the whole country into a fort?”

He told NBC:
⚠️“We’re all sitting ducks. And any country that allows this to continue without putting forward just common sense safety measures is a country that has – in a tragic way – lost its way.”

Warnock alluded to an April 2023 Fox News poll which reaffirmed that ✅the vast majority of Americans favored strengthening gun safety laws.
✅And he said Congress took an encouraging first step toward treating such public support as a mandate when it enacted bipartisan legislation that expanded background checks for the youngest gun buyers while funding mental health and violence intervention programs.

🆘But what was the first major federal firearms safety bill to pass Congress in nearly three decades was “clearly not enough”, Warnock said,
noting how the US continues recording a number of mass shootings that is disproportionate at the global level.

❇️ Warnock said polls show most in the US overwhelmingly support universal background checks.
❇️ Furthermore, Warnock said that large numbers of Americans support banning general access to assault-style rifles and semi-automatic firearms.

❌Yet federal lawmakers have not been able to get enough votes to clear procedural hurdles preventing Congress from meaningfully consider either issue.

Warnock on Sunday blamed that reality on congressmembers who
– out of ambition or fear
– accept financial support from the wealthy gun industry.#

🔥“We are at an impasse because there are people in … politics … who are doing the bidding of the #corporatist #gun #lobby even as they line their pockets with the blood of our children,” Warnock said.

LAST THING:

since 2015 i've sounded the alarm about Trump being THE fascist evangelicals & corporatists could latch on. why?

part of the Christian #Zionist mythology is that the anti-Christ will usher in the Apocalypse and #Trump fits that mug perfectly.

and as a #kleptocrat, Trump is the corporatists & techbros wet dream.

don't come at me like i don't know what am talking about #corporatist & #techbro fascists vying for a takeover of the Democratic Party.

I KNOW WHAT AM TALKING ABOUT.

my tweet from December 2015 : TRUMP & HIS FASCISM are as American as apple pie. own him. because you probably have cousins and aunties or even parents fawning over him.

@strypey
Yes, the #SilentWar on progressives is intense still to this day, the West have refined #gaslighting and vilifying, mostly labeling a public figure who opposes the #corporatists as a #rapist and/or #misogynist. They did that even against #KevinRudd in #Australia.

In the 1930s they were '#industrialists', but in today's era of #hyperFinancialisation we prefer the term '#corporatist", especially over positive-sounding terms like '#neoliberal'.

THE #AmericanOligarchy WANT THIS

thehill.com/homenews/house/424

these #ShockAndAwe tactics the billionaires funding #TeaParty #MAGA GOP and #corporatist Democrats have used since the days of Gingrich.

and Hakeem "Dead Eyes" Jeffries is doing exactly what they want him to do: a "bipartisan coalition"

so the fascist GOP joining the democrats can further push the party into fascism & have the weight to neutralize the Democratic Party's progressive caucus.

instead of killing the filibuster, btw.

got me down a rabbit-hole of #LongCovid #COVID19 articles and papers; but their mention of a "COVID collaborative" got me curious about who they were. HOOOOOBOY!

this list does not spark joy.

there's some real Gs in there, but just these 7 (there's less known ghouls in there) are peak #corporatist #MIC #fascism #eugenics

zeroes.caHFM (@hfentonmudd@zeroes.ca)Attached: 1 image Have you heard of the “‘Covid Collaborative”? No? What do they want? They want the pandemic to end by having people “make the courageous decision” to expose themselves to the Covid virus They’re a big group of committed vocal minimizers like Gounder & Ghandi and 2nd generation minimizers like Slavitt and Frieden Plus many many Democrat and Republican former governors, chiefs of staff, congressmen, White House staff, NSC-types Plus hedge fund and investment types You get the idea—people with access, $$$ An interesting member is their VP for Science & Strategy, Steven Phillips MD, MPH He used to be the Medical Director for Global Projects at EXXON He’s spoken repeatedly about the need to have courage and expose yourself, thereby ending the “Covid divide” (see photo below, from August) How can so many people have signed on to this, and be willing to promote a basically eugenicist approach to this #pandemic? Their ideas have flooded the world—scientists and doctors at some of the world’s leading universities are preaching against masks, in favor of “hybrid immunity,” even against vaccines Signs on public transit say, “forget the mask” 😬 The president himself says I’m taking off my mask🦧 #whatishappening #COVID_19 #SARSCoV2 @novid@chirp.social

🗣 ELECT MORE #GENX #ANTIFA SLACKERS

when “dress codes” spring from cultural praxis, they do as a shared language, a way to bond in community.

how we dress expresses how we see ourselves within that shared visual language and cultural expression.

but when imposed, dress codes normalize authoritarianism. that's the function of the business suit, the attire of #corporatist #AmericanFascism

it’s the whole FUCKING point of American Psycho

🗣 ELECT SLACKERS NOT YUPPIES
