Fascism
Edited on Tue Nov-23-04 02:52 AM by Syrinx
Why is that word not allowed to be spoken? Why are people ridiculed for
mentioning that word? Why are the media lying to us? Don't you see
fascism consuming the country? Aren't you terrified and repulsed by what
is happening to our once great country? Who is going to stand and fight
for our democratic republic? This is our very last chance. We must
stop the coronation. These motherfuckers are evil and deserve to be
punished. Why are the people asleep? The government has been seized by
domestic enemies and very few people seem to care. What will it take to
get the sleeping American public to get off its collective ass and put an
end to all of this? The very survival of the United States of America
is at stake, and few seem to notice or care. Do the majority of
American citizens really want a imperial, fascist dictatorship? That's
what we have. Don't believe me? Watch this shit unfold in the next few
months. Hang on tight, it's going to be one ugly trip.

2. "What will it take to get the sleeping American public to get off

Nothing will happen until these peeps start seeing their jobs being sent overseas or eliminated because of the bad economy. Until they are losing their homes, cars and starving in the streets, no one is going to say anything. Or maybe when these asshats declare war on Iran and their children get shipped off to fight these PNAC oil Middle East wars and these sheeple realized that the Chimp DOES lie after he said there will be no draft, well, maybe then they'll react accordingly! Or maybe, when that Patriot Act II, which gives the Chimp unlimited powers, and these sheeple start getting arrested as enemy combatants for nothing and are held without a lawyer and for an unlimited amount of time, just maybe, they'll wake the f**k up!!

You are now considered unAmerican if you go against the Chimp during war time! After all, it's not fascism when Chimp and his cabal do it!

3. Despite the fact that...
... Huey P. Long was one of the more corrupt politicians this country has produced, he had a point: "If fascism comes to this country, it will be in the form of 100% Americanism."

The Repugs have draped their ascent to power in that 100% Americanism. That aids in shutting off discussion and debate on the real issues. For that reason alone, it's going to have to get worse before it gets better--economically, politically, internationally. Only then will ordinary people question the Repugs' message, and even then, they will only do so by half-measures as long as the Democrats are going along with the Repugs.

Yeah, it's going to get uglier--no question about that. (Hey, it's been pretty ugly already!) But, people won't make the association between what's happening in their own lives and the policies of the Repugs unless the Democratic politicians grow a collective spine and vote the way they politick during elections.
