  1. ”Never believe that [they] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. [They] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.” -Jean-Paul Sartre speaking of something true of all fascists (edited to try and keep YouTube from suspiciously censoring it)

  2. We've been requiring authorization to protest since at least as far back as the Bush era. The GOP has been moving in this direction for a long time. If we have to ask for permission to do something, it's not a right.

  5. We're rapidly approaching the point where the only defense remaining for the first amendment will be the second

  7. They've never been for small government. They've only been for small democracy.

  8. You're just using a phrase used on you and proving you don't understand it.

  10. We can't be the land of the free unless we are the home of the brave, and we haven't been THAT in a long time if ever.

  11. The only one who I've found to EVER stand on principle is Kyle Kulinsky. No surprise, he's a progressive.

  12. Most of the people calling it hyperbole are being flagrantly dishonest. Ignore them.

  13. ​ @joshmich873 if you need to get permission in advance to do something, you don't have a right to it. The first amendment is VERY clear on this.

  14. ​ @britishrocklovingyank3491 who's enforcing law anymore? They're just enforcing a dictator's will, not the actual law.

  15. You might want to look back at the exit polling to see which generations voted for this repeatedly.

  16. So you're pro free speech AND pro genocide.

  17. You should be, but there is an amendment created for exactly this situation.

  18. For the same reason that being Anti-Nazi isn't anti-white. Only the most racist make the equivocation.

  19. Ground News makes the mistake of thinking Dems are left-wing. Common for Americans but still a serious problem.

  20. What's wrong them? Fascism, plain and simple.

  21. They will be mockingly denying it's fascism while loading us into train cars. They revel in dishonesty.

  22. Correct and correct.

  23. ​ @DVG7093 don't think that means you're immune from the same thing happening where you live. Fascism is a global movement.

  24. Not the Dems, that's for sure! No one's coming to save us. We going to have to save each other.

  25. ​ @TamaraDippel Gen X and older voted for this repeatedly.

  26.  @powerbeard5653  the GOP is an actual Nazi organization at this point. The salutes are a dead giveaway, as are their political ads. You know this and are just being dishonest.

There is nothing more or else to it, and there never has been, in any place or time. . . . As the core proposition of conservatism is indefensible if stated baldly, it has always been surrounded by an elaborate backwash of pseudophilosophy, amounting over time to millions of pages. All such is axiomatically dishonest and undeserving of serious scrutiny. Today, the accelerating de-education of humanity has reached a point where the market for pseudophilosophy is vanishing; it is, as The Kids Say These Days, tl;dr . All that is left is the core proposition itself — backed up, no longer by misdirection and sophistry, but by violence." -Frank Wilhoit

  28. Unfortunately the ones who've been accusing others for years of "hating America" are the ones who actually do.

  29. It's very simple, about 1 in 6 Americans is a fascist and most don't vote.
