@rbreich The whole point of conservatism is staring at you in the face:
It’s not hyperbolic to say this. Brain scans & psychological studies confirm: Conservatives don’t treat humans, laws, anything… The same. It always depends on the in-group/out-group.
Conservatism is not a flaw of character; it is literally a fundamental difference in how you perceive and interact with the world.
@rbreich Fear? Greed? Greedfear?
@rbreich Accusation = Confession
No one else would hire them at this point, so they pretend the deck chairs are comfortable, and continue to be paid.
"and yet they are silent"
Well of course they are you silly rabbit! It's *their* big government!
@rbreich being from the UK I always thought the US was a federation fo pretty much independent states. Apparently I was very wrong indeed
@rbreich
Screenshot reads
Sending jack-booted thugs to
invade American cities. Unilaterally launching wars and
plundering foreign nations. Suspending funding for states
that voted against him. Trump is the "big government" nightmare Republicans have
always warned us about.
And yet they're silent.
I wonder why, shame on them…

@rbreich Just call it and spell it out as what it is: Fascism.
@rbreich Because they enjoy it.
@rbreich it was all projection. Every single bit of it.
@rbreich Trump is not acting alone. The republicans are part of it. You should stop phrasing things that put all the guilt on him.. it is all of them and what is happening is what they want. Its a regime, all of them are culpable.
@rbreich I really appreciate the posts.
Why are you screenshotting the post from bluesky? It takes up a lot of space and since you have no alt text people with a screen reader can't see the message at all.
