This racist bitch is proof that Trump and MAGA did not happen in a vacuum: she IS America. - the racist, bigoted, fascist America that this nation truly is.

Tone it down a bit. Most of us didn't vote for him, if only because a significant chunk simply didn't vote.

But "bitch" is a bit beyond the pale for Beehaw. That's objectively not Beeing Nice.

When a majority of Americans vote for fascism, that makes America a fascist nation. You may be a nice guy but you're not in the majority, so you're not representative of this country.

As for being nice, why should I be nice with this piece of refuse human being?

The majority of voters maybe voted for trump but the majority of Americans did not. The people that didn't voted are a lot. Only 64% voted in 2024. https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/2025/06/26/voter-turnout-2020-2024/

It doesn't matter. You can't cherry-pick. A majority of Germans also didn't vote for Hitler, yet it was called "Nazi Germany" after the election and nobody denies it on the basis that he didn't get the absolute majority of the votes.

America voted for fascism. I don't care if only a third of Americans are actively fascist, another third stayed home like the fat lazy slobs they are, and the remaining third lost to the first one: the net result is a fascist America.

Still, we don't condemn the German victims of Nazis for fascism. We don't condemn the French resistance for Vichy France. There's a real resistance movement in America. Support it.

I'm not condemning anything or anybody. There are plenty of good Americans in Trump's Nazi America like there were plenty of good Germans in Hitler's Nazi Germany. But good minorities in fascist countries don't make those countries any less fascist.

It does when they rise up and get their scalps.

That means 36% of eligible voters passively support fascism.

"How could people let the nazis take over Germany?" Gee, I wonder.

“I will NEVER co-sign a genocide,” they said, and got really condescending about how pure they were being, by refusing to vote to keep Trump out of power.
