Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

They also have a swivel-eyed psycho problem.

Finally noticed the skull on her hat, did she?

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 37 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's peak irony that she would excempt herself from the nazi problem.

But in the end this is still good news - every tiny bit of coherence lost in the MAGA movement. Infighting. Yay!

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 week ago

Did she clarify what the problem was? Maybe she thinks the problem is that there aren't enough Nazis.

Eva Von Braun warns, "The Nazi Party has a Nazi problem"

“So many ‘conservatives’ are just salivating over the thought of being able to break windows and openly Sieg Heil in public,” she claimed. “These people hate Trump because he won’t Sieg Heil with them. He won’t scream Alle Juden Raus! And deep down, they hate him for that.”

She really doesn’t get it. Even trump is smart enough to know even he doesn’t have the latitude to “openly Sieg Heil.” The mask has slipped so far from right wing faces that his dumbest supporters think it’s now fine to openly fly their Nazi colors, but the heritage foundation and the like (kochs, Murdoch, et al) are trying to slam on the brakes and pull them back from the brink. But this is a runaway train and she may be right that we’ll have an open Nazi party in ten years time. But she doesn’t seem to grasp the nuance of what’s happening.

ut the heritage foundation and the like (kochs, Murdoch, et al) are trying to slam on the brakes and pull them back from the brink

I find that highly unlikely.

[–] Draegur@lemmy.zip 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

Yeah only Elon Musk can openly sieg heil ._.

More rats sensing the ship is about to sink and scurrying off as fast as they can.

In a few years time, depending on what happens in the next year, you might think that the entire MAGA movement was a hallucination, as it will be next to impossible to find a single person who ever defended it, you won't see anyone who admits to ever having a bumper sticker or flag on their lawn, they will have all up and disappeared like a fart in the wind.

Nah. Loomer is a chronic attention seeker. She's just saying anything that will get her name in the headlines one more time.

They've straight up murdered people en mass. They've "doubled Gitmo" with their concentration camps in Honduras and El Salvador and God only knows where. That's not something you can just undo or walk away from.

If MAGA feels like a hallucination in another few years, it is only because of a massive cover-up by the Still Extremely Fascist media. It will be a prelude to another fascist surge and another wave of totalitarian violence.

You know it's bad when the nazi mouthpiece says there are too many nazis in the nazi party.

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 22 points 1 week ago

We need to find the guy responsible!

[–] arcterus@piefed.blahaj.zone 36 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I like how she conveniently left out anything related to actual GOP policy and then had to insult Muslims for no reason. Call me crazy, but something tells me they're gonna continue having a Nazi problem.

We're all trying to find the guy who did this.

[–] Redditsux@lemmy.world 32 points 1 week ago (3 children)

OMG! No she didn't!!! Has she grown a sliver of self-awareness? Who put a mirror before her? This could be a break-through!

[–] FistingEnthusiast@lemmynsfw.com 32 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, she's one of them

She just wants them to be more discreet until they are able to go public without repercussions

Women on the right are always so shocked to find it's full of misogynists even when they play by the rules.

They won't ever respect a woman. No matter how hard she brown noses.

Just wait until this fucking idiot discovers that when they say "globalists" they mean "Jews".

[–] Maeve@kbin.earth 22 points 1 week ago

Omg Laura ~~Looser~~ ~~Boomer~~ Loomer !! 🤣🤣🤣(I swear what a weird autocorrect, I never use that term, especially spelled that way, wtf?) is a Nazi problem who thinks the only thing Nazi about the party refers to Jewishness.

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 22 points 1 week ago

Loomer figured it out? Loomer?! This is a real low point. Yeah, this one hurts.

[–] Bronzebeard@lemmy.zip 21 points 1 week ago

Is her issue that there's not enough?

[–] human@slrpnk.net 19 points 1 week ago

"The GOP has no moral clarity right now"

Isn't she sleeping with the fuhrer?

She hasn't figured anything out, she's aslo a nazi, but is trying to jump ship before it sinks all the way. Trust me there's going to be a LOT of people who were against this the 'whole time' suddenly popping up as the collapse intensifies.

She's trying to out-pivot MTG. Don't let them get away with it.

They've had that problem for at least 50 years. It's just been really fucking obvious for the past 12.

Hey, guys. I think MAGA might be... bad?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago

That's like saying a beehive has a bee infestation.

[–] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (1 children)

LOL, Laura Loomer:

  1. Says it's not about Israel

I'm thinking she is only saying this now because even if she saw all the Nazi shit before ( and seriously, how could you not?) she was willing to overlook all that as long as the GOP was sufficiently loyal to the very worst shit that Israel was up to. Now that there are a few cracks in that front, she's now worried about all the obvious rampant Nazi shit in her party.

[–] CrabAndBroom@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I think people like her, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Karoline Leavitt are starting to turn because they have inside knowledge and know that the MAGA thing is going to crack soon, presumably because either the Epstein files or Trump's health are worse than the public knows (personally I suspect it's the latter, because that's the one thing Trump can't really weasel out of) and they want to appear to have distanced themselves from the crazy before it all happened.

I've been saying for a while that a few years after Trump dies, you won't be able to find anyone who claims to have supported him and I think potentially this is the beginning of that.

[–] kandoh@reddthat.com 12 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Maga is a personality cult centered around an 80 year old man with obvious health issues.

Everyone sees the writing in the wall, like Alexander's generals after he drank himself to death, they've got to carve out their own fiefdoms from the corpse of his empire.
