The United States is now functionally equivalent to Nazi Germany in the 1930s.
As of today there is no more "it's going to happen" - it has now happened, fully and completely. The US government has been taken over by ultranationalist authoritarians intent on ethnic cleansing. That should be the headline of every newspaper and news program. Sound the alarm. Sound all the alarms.
Remember, your homeland's heritage is genocide and theft.
I'll just leave this here for no reason whatsoever

ironically, created by u.s. army.
I'm white. The overwhelming majority of my ancestors are white. Several of them homesteaded in Kansas in 1887. One of them, my grandmother, made a quilt just like that one in the painting; which I slept under throughout my childhood.
I am who is depicted here, but not who is represented. My father fought the Nazis. My mother visited post-WWII Germany to help repair their carnage. No one in this white family has any time or sympathy for fascism.
Maybe I can stop some of this administration's cruel and, frankly, anti-American policies and actions; maybe I can't. But I can tell the world that this white American wants none of it.
*you know, the people with the right to call this their Homeland
Ultranationalist authoritarians in a land built by immigrants. The irony of it is deafening…
bizarrely and with a motive that can almost singularly be assessed as #accelerationism.
the sub-textual motive of the entire Project 2025, imho, has been the baiting of a civil conflict where a victimised white minority can plausibly take control.
#whitenationalism
Ah, yes, remember your heritage of being immigrants on land stolen from indigenous people who you effectively tried to exterminate.
Are we seeing the pattern? Are we seeing this is a global campaign, yes? Everyone? Are we getting it now? Are we seeing how neoliberalism failed to resist this at all over the last 50 years?
Can we finally admit now that "less evil" isn't cutting it?
"Yea we hate immigrants, but we love settlers...who are definitely not immigrants...and whose 'homeland' is definitely the place they were settling and not where they were coming from." 😵💫😡😫
So…now they’re endorsing birthright citizenship? /s
they’re even using that Watchtower/Atalaya illustration aesthetic where everybody looks white, even the Black people.
The phrase "Remember your Homeland's Heritage" is textbook ethnonationalist language. 'Homeland' is meant to evoke 'blood and soil' ideology and "Heritage" is telling us that ONLY white Americans have any claim on American identity and history.
The US government is explicitly promoting white settler mythology as the nation's defining 'heritage.' This romanticized pioneer imagery serves a specific ideological function. To establish white Europeans as the only true Americans.
This propaganda isn't only about nostalgia. It's state-sponsored creation of myths specifically designed to legitimize ethnic cleansing. It's both the creation of a non-white 'enemy' and a reference to past genocidal dispossession of colonialism as a justification to do it AGAIN.
This propaganda is an ideological foundation for determining who belongs in America and who doesn't. The timing is intentional, it's meant to provide justification and support from the highest levels of government for eliminationist rhetoric.
So what should people do? The answer is a question: What would you do if you were in Germany in 1933? Knowing what you know about everything that happened, what would you have done? Do that, whatever it is. We have moved past "it can happen here". It is happening here, right now.
Take the hint, they're telling us what they're doing.
This ethnostate propaganda is central to the ultranationalist authoritarian US government's agenda to eliminate women's rights, queer rights, migrant rights, and to conduct ethnic cleansing, a "remigration" campaign that is funded, deployed, and ongoing.
"I made a rule for myself: I would not include anything that human beings had not already done in some other place or time, or for which the technology did not already exist."

This ethnonationalist propoganda and rhetoric is supported at the highest levels of the US government now. It is central to policy: massive funding for ICE, gutting agencies, mass deportation as "remigration." Remember "remigration" means ethnic cleansing.
The US is Nazi posting again. Explicitly anti-Indigenous. More propaganda. Once again US government is officially promoting white settler mythology as the nation's defining 'heritage.' Serving a specific ideological function: to establish white Europeans as the only 'true Americans'.
This propaganda isn't only about nostalgia. It's state-sponsored endorsement of a manifest destiny myth being deployed to legitimize ethnic cleansing. It's both the re-assertion of an imagined 'enemy' and a celebration of genocidal dispossession as a justification to do it again.
Just two weeks ago we saw this from a right-wing US pundit, now echoed at the highest levels of government. A US pundit with over 2 million followers calls for the genocide of Indigenous people and First Nations. This horrifying call for atrocity comes while eliminationist language, policy, and practice are promoted by the highest levels of US government. Genocidal white supremacy.
This is textbook fascist propaganda. The fascist on the right is depicted as a 'pure' clean blonde citizen, loyal to the nationalist ideology, a 'real American'. On the left an engineered 'enemy,' ideologically polluted. Existential contamination requiring purification, extermination.
