Wake up new low achieved by the trump 2 administration

[–] dojan@lemmy.world 26 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Whenever you think they can't bury the bar any lower, they somehow manage to fucking find space under it.

[–] Linktank@lemmy.today 7 points 2 weeks ago

Drill baby drill!

[–] blackberry@midwest.social 36 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

wait, did he share the triangle or just the Washington post article?

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 59 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It was the right-wing Washington Times, not the Washington Post.

[–] catloaf@lemm.ee 41 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

To be clear, the Washington Times, Washington Post, New York Times, and New York Post are all right-wing, just different flavors.

[–] AbouBenAdhem@lemmy.world 22 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (2 children)

Yes, but so far the Washington Post (unlike the Times article Trump shared) isn’t openly advocating for purging gays from the military.

[–] takeda@lemm.ee 15 points 2 weeks ago

Give them some time.

[–] pdxfed@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

No, Bezos is just saying opinion writers should only publish articles supporting free markets and uncritical of fascist dystopian reality we're entering. A huge leap to say he would put money before ethics and throw a minority group under the bus if it helped his personal profits or company.

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 weeks ago

That's like saying that eating broken glass, rotten fruit, spoiled eggs, and enriched uranium are all really bad for you.

While technically true, the difference in HOW bad for you is significant and important.

[–] SuperIce@lemmy.world 25 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

He just shared an article that had the triangle in its thumbnail. This article is dumb.

[–] kamiheku@sopuli.xyz 9 points 2 weeks ago

BREAKING: return2ozma shares anti-LGBTQ+ Nazi era ‘Pink Triangle’ insignia on lemmy.world

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works -4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

He shared the Washington Times article.

Edited to add, correction it was the times not the post.

[–] Krik@lemmy.dbzer0.com 35 points 2 weeks ago (4 children)

Can't just stay low for one day so we can catch out breaths?
He's like a duracell bunny.

[–] ArtVandelay@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Remember, a chief goal of propaganda is to exhaust.

[–] Twig@sopuli.xyz 4 points 2 weeks ago

And distract.

I've lost track of the main, worst things we should be focusing on with this guy. If someone asked what the worst things were, I'm not sure where to begin (because there's so much).

[–] LonstedBrowryBased@lemm.ee 11 points 2 weeks ago

Doubt Melania would agree

[–] Sprocketfree@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 weeks ago

It's the Steve bannon playbook

[–] KeenFlame@feddit.nu 4 points 2 weeks ago

When nobody does anything he can continue so it overwhelms everyone by the sheer amount of robbery. During the aftermath the spoils will already have been distributed amongst the oligarchs and a bail out is our only option, at which point the heist is complete and class war is won. Then the killings will begin, and at that point no power is left to the lower and middle classes to resist

[–] thallamabond@lemmy.world 29 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

Not the first time for this. They posted the red triangle back in 2020 in an attempt to label antifa with it.

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 5 points 2 weeks ago

Hmm I wonder what people are upset for? No matter, just charge them as domestic terrorists or deport them if you can. Forget due process these people don't deserve it.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 21 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Where are the people saying that just because they're fascists doesn't mean we can call them Nazis? What do you make of this?

[–] DicJacobus@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

aukshully, you cant just throw the name Nazi around because Nazism is a very specific form of german national socialism. and this is not germany.

Russian and American Fascists : Rolling on the floor laughing

[–] cheesemoo@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

This is just sparkling fascism.

[–] IfIonlyhadaBrain@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

When it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

The trumpnazis are literally taking signs, symbols, gestures, modus operendi, et al from German nazis. It's not wrong to label nazis, "Nazi." If you wish to be pedantic then by all means, trumpnazis would be completely accurate.

[–] earphone843@sh.itjust.works 17 points 2 weeks ago

But he's totally not a Nazi, right brainwashed cult members?

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 15 points 2 weeks ago

Fucking scumbag.

[–] Bellingdog@lemmy.world 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

It lets us know the truth. It lets us knoooooow the truth.

[–] one_fot_mon@lemm.ee 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

He's dumb with the lesbians

[–] cmoney@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Let's dip him in honey.

[–] MyOpinion@lemm.ee 9 points 2 weeks ago

Of course he does his father was a Nazi and he is a Nazi.

[–] lupusblackfur@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Pfft...

Did anyone truly expect differently??

🙄

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Honestly, yes. I thought he would do stupid shit like last time, but the economy would still be okay. Shakey, but do alright. Also, I didn't expect concentration camps in the first week either. Now he's selling off our national parks to his tech bro friends and dismantling every social service we have. I didn't expect this.

I don't get why the millionaires aren't giving more pushback. They're not going to be safe either from him.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago

I'm pretty sure you should have expected it because it was all in Project 2025.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

I don’t get why the millionaires aren’t giving more pushback. They’re not going to be safe either from him.

Because millionaires are just as fucking stupid as the rest of the population.

[–] pelespirit@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 weeks ago

Apparently, or they think someone else will do it.

[–] CherryBullets@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 weeks ago

It's because millionaires can leave easily at any time, so they don't care.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Just blatantly open about the Nazism. Pretty much everything that modern conservatism stands for came from the Third Reich. On an alternate note, kinda want that pink triangle tattoo'd. We can appropriate imagery too.
