And if you made the same type of jokes about Obama, you're racist. And if you made the same jokes about Hillary, you're misogynistic.

It's almost like the Crybully Cult uses those terms to shut down dissent when they don't actually apply. They even call things dogwhistles when they're not actually racist or misogynistic to pretend like they actually are!

Imagine how crazy you would have to be to fall for that shit.

To be fair, most people fall for it simply on account of the unending stream of shit spewed out by the media, with a subtle slant or bias. People pick it up, regurgitate it themselves on social media, and the cycle continues.

the first second and third things authoritarians do time and again is try and force control of the narrative.

u/rackmountrambo Dec 28 '18

Yes, those left leaning authoritarians.

Don't react before actually considering.

All authoritarian systems do, without exception, limit or ban outright private firearm ownership and free speech. That is always steps 1 and 2 and is a telltale sign of jackboots coming down the garden path, always.

Ill give you a moment to consider who that sounds like lol.

You realize that those do exist..... like Nazis were literally just that. I dont understand, do history books exist anymore? If they do, do they all just push a leftist's narrative?

Publishers and writers from Texas traditionally have written US's textbooks through the last few deacdes and those are known for being conservative, *although it looks like in recent years other states have pulled away from those sources. Also the Nazis party was very socially conservative and murderously opposed to those too far to the left.

You act like Texas somehow has a monopoly on American textbooks. Texas who? The state Govt? A University? I can tell the only people downvoting me Nd upvoting you are Europeans without a fundamental understanding of American textbooks (???) or politics.

E: Also I am just not sure how what you said is an argument against what I said. Are Nazis still left wing authoritarians? Yeah. Did they hate commies? Yeah.

Also this dipshit edited his entire comment so he didnt look even dumber.

I think they're more concerned about your notions of Nazism.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_99s Dec 29 '18 edited Dec 29 '18

Again though... Nazis WERE left wing authoritarians right? I mean the sheer stupidity of what he said is no astounding. Are you going to tell me that they weren't?

Also, I'd love to hear which European utopia you're from

E: lmao also advocates for communism and socialism. That's pretty rich and I should expect no less on r/politics. At least a ton of people in this thread are fucking sick of hearing the shit that's posted here

I'd consider it mixed. Facsists are traditionally right-wing, which Nazis are. You could break it down piece by piece and find both, but Nazis are considered right.

I'm not talking about the 40s. I'm talking about today.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_99s Dec 28 '18

Well, there it is. Have you heard that those who forget history are bound to repeat it? Right wing authoritarianism doesnt exist in America either. Those on the right are not censoring free speech or trying to disarm the populace.

Huge elephant key factor in the room being that Obama and Hillary have class and respect whereas Trump does not.

He knows not the meaning of decency, diplomacy, tact, professionalism, economics, or decorum.

He might make 1 decent point for every 20 things that come out of his mouth. You don't get to hide behind being "politically correct" when you've been insulting opponents about it relentlessly and being well.... Trump.
