Feel like some on this site are too young remember but Americans (or Democrats) have gotten more racist and conservative in the past 25 years, or at least have dropped any facade of having values that would now be considered ‘progressive’

The daily show was nothing but anti-iraq and afghanistan war propaganda all throughout the 2000s. Bush and Cheney being war criminals was an accepted fact among democrats but Trump pulled the Democrats way right.

Not to say they didn’t hold those views out of pure partisanship but I’ve personally witnessed all Americans become way more racist since 2016.

All part of the plan since 1991, turn America into an openly fascist Reich.

turning nazi Germany into a nazi state, mf when wasn't America openly racist?

[-] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago

Openly fascist. As in, embracing the label.

I don’t think Americans, on an individual scale, were as openly racist, say 30 years ago, as they are now. This is my personal opinion

Every 4 years it’s “this is the most important election of our lifetime” but now it actually feels like it. It’s different than any other election in my lifetime.

beyond parody lol

This election is like every election of my lifetime. But it is exactly identical to 2016 and 2020

McCain was a fucking racist bastard piece of shit and comrade tumor should have killed him earlier

God I hate this fucking state, hate white liberals, hate reddit-logo . There's a huge population of palestinians (and arab americans in general) in MI yet not a mention of the ongoing genocide in the thread

wdym shouldn't all Republicans openly advocate for dropping nukes on Iran when we're not even directly at war with them, but at war with their prime adversary in the region? It's the P R E S I D E N T I A L thing to do. Trump thought we should use our nuclear arsenal on a hurricane!

You’d think the fact that the demoncrats have gone so far right that they now appeal to someone who grew up listening to limbaugh and voted for trump would make someone ask some questions but naaaah

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
