American Fascist Party. Yeah, I'm going to say it over and over.

No one can fault you for saying the truth.

There's a handful of things I find myself having to repeat and repeat, to the point that it's starting to annoy me. I'm sure someone is going to give me shit about it real soon.

Look. Soon enough these assholes will stop beating around the bush and make their move. It will be undeniable but they will skip right past shame and whole heartily accept the fact that yes, they actually are aligned with Nazis. I've said it before and I'll say it again. During Bush they said they weren't racist. During Trump they said they weren't fascist. Next they will say they won't attempt mass genocide.

By then it will be too late.

You're not wrong. Fascism isn't coming; it's here. And every time some fascist bullshit happens without consequences, they get stronger and democracy gets weaker. Fascist leaders have seen no consequences. The American Fascist Party (I said it again) has to be called that, because not only are they refusing to eject fascists from their ranks, they are promoting them to positions of real power.
