I applaud the sentiment, but uhm… I don't think the comparison is helpful. Fighting external enemies is very different from fighting fascism from within. The "the state champions freedom" vs "the state is tyranny" kind of different.

Maybe the weapon is being held by a European liberator

Better if it shows a Confederate soldier?

We will beat them again. It's just a question of how much suffering until then, and how much we actually root out the ideology.

They forfeited the right to be called my countrymen when they spat on the founding principles of the nation. They are foreign to the American ideal.

Yeah but they don't have an entire world of countries using guns and bombs to tell them that.

Fighting fascism is a whole lot easier when it decides to start a world War, every other instance they just continue on within their own borders.

We're trying to avoid the whole world war part but it'll come if these assholes continue

Unfortunately if a world war comes it will likely be to bomb civilians while the megacorps make deals with all parties to stay clear of their production lines...

Like… our main problem today is not guns and ships.

The main problem is media, i.e. the propaganda system that keeps MAGAts happy to shoot themselves in the foot.

The Conservative Propaganda Machine.

Before this is over, it will have to dealt with as the National Security Threat it is.
