Typhoon@lemmy.cato Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•We don't use the word 'fascist' because we wish harm on anybody. We use it because words mean things.36·9 hours agoWe called fascists “fascists” 10 years ago because they were fascists then, and they’re still fascists now. It’s not difficult to understand.
Stop sanewashing his first term. He tried to do all kinds of fascist stuff during his first term, but the checks and balances were still intact and stopped the worst of it. Being a powerless fascist doesn’t mean you’re not a fascist.

Typhoon@lemmy.cato Canada@lemmy.ca•Attacks on critical infrastructure, espionage, IP theft, malign influence, transnational repression: China's cyber attacks "second to none", represent biggest cyber threat to Canada, report warns51·22 hours agoChina and Russia are the greatest cyber threat?
Not that all of our health, government, and industry infrastructure is hosted by American owned companies (MS, Google, Amazon)? And that they’ve admitted US law supersedes ours when it comes to privacy?
Or that our current government wants to pass bill C-2 which will force organizations to hand over personal identifying information to the US without any warrant and only have “reasonable grounds to suspect” an offense has been committed.
https://www.parl.ca/DocumentViewer/en/45-1/bill/C-2/first-reading search for “158” for the details.
China is definitely a threat but the US already has control of our data and we’re handing them even more access.
And neither China or Russia have threatened our sovereignty with annexation in the past week.
Typhoon@lemmy.cato Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•America could have avoided all of this with a functional justice system6·1 day agoWe’re only a step or two behind. Especially with the leader of the Conservative party spewing Nazi rhetoric. He went into the last election looking like he’d win until Trump came along and we decided to dodge that bullet for now. But the guy we did elect is backing down on everything Trump related so I don’t see him winning again.
Typhoon@lemmy.cato politics @lemmy.world•Serious: What is going to take to face the fascist threat in America?143·2 days agoI can’t believe people still have faith in fair elections. He tried to cheat his first win. He refused to leave after his loss to Biden and tried to overthrow the government. Then he cheated again last year.
And for some reason you think the midterms will be open and fair?! That he’ll even hold them at all? Or will allow them to be fair without cheating or intimidation? Or will actually obey the results? He doesn’t listen to Congress now! Why would he start if the Dems won?!
And if by some miracle all of that worked out you think the Dems are going to start fighting back now? This isn’t a political fight. It’s a class fight and most of the Dems are in the owner class. That’s why they go along with all this.
Stop relying on the next election. You don’t vote your way out of fascism. Totalitarian leaders do not value elections. He will not leave or give up power.
Typhoon@lemmy.cato politics @lemmy.world•Serious: What is going to take to face the fascist threat in America?382·2 days agoThey need to protest. REALLY protest. General strikes, obstruction, shut down everything. You can’t walk around with a sign on a weekend once a month when it’s nice outside and expect a wannabe dictator will back down. They are spendinrg every minute of every day stripping away your democracy and you have to fight back with the same intensity.
Look at Nepal. France. Italy. They didn’t ask their government to listen. They MADE them. It’s YOUR country! Fight for it!

No, but it’s better than what she was doing. And hopefully it’ll show more Republicans that they can break ranks with MAGA too.
