[Developing] Nancy Pelosi's husband violently beaten with hammer

Lol there is no differentiating factor between communism, fascism and the overarching term of authoritarianism in your definition.


What makes Mussolini's fascism unique and what we see with other instances of fascism that are unique to fascism are traits like a call back to tradition. A core premise for Mussolini's fascism was a desire to return back to the height of the Roman empire.


Everything in your definition is nothing more than mechanisms authoritarianism used to maintain power. Nothing about your explanation includes ideology and purpose. Every fascist regime has these key characteristics that make it fascist and not just merely authoritarian:

A desire for strong hierarchy in society with defined roles.

Hierarchy is based on traditional values of that region

Strong lore and mythos about national origins and any questioning of the lore is met with state pushback.

Something that would be uniquely fascist would be a government for example making burning of national symbols illegal.

Your definition is also very empty because it completely ignores the common man's desire to follow fascist leaders and why they want fascism. From your definition you provide no insight on why a common citizen would want fascism.

Authoritarian regimes usually come out of some type of civil unrest usually during a tipping point in a nation's ability to suppress the outcomes of severe wealth inequality (sporadic riots, protests etc).

When these situations arise, the fascist leaders are typically part of the ethnic and religious majority of a nation and also wealthy. Their intent is to make sure that the common folk who are part of that ethnic majority direct their anger over the economic conditions towards "the other" and that all the reasons for the economic downfall is because of a fall from traditional values and dilution of the ethnicity of the people by allowing "others".

The extreme left will use class welfare to direct the resentment of the common folk. And often through that chaos a authoritarian leader rises.


It's the fork between when a nation as a whole decides that the severe decline is because of economic systems that benefit the wealthy or it's because of a fall from tradition and where the solution is creating a strong ethnic/religious culture.

The fact that none of your analysis of these systems even remotely include why it appeals to regular folk shows a very basic misunderstanding. These systems don't get in place magically.

No, fascism isn't just "big government" for goodness sakes. Any citizen would say they aren't in favor of government overreach. Who wouldn't say that? But these systems somehow come to power. It's because people like you don't see stuff like controlling women's pregnancies as overreach. You are sold that narrative even if it doesn't make any rational sense.

 

He should play Cyberpunk 2077 to fulfill his fantasies. They have automated turrets outside corporate offices in the game. Seems like his utopia.

 

Tinhat haha..none of those guys can stand against my guy @Nook and what would be biggest bbs trial of the century. yuge

 

That is why less than 5% unemployment is considered functional unemployment which we are at. Yes labor force participation is low and to a certain extent that is due to government policies they said even back when labor forc participation was higher there still were millions of undocumented working. Again as noted the vast a majority of those on Federalmaid are working full time.

 

Libertarianism is a principled position and I’m not going to fault @StupidMoniker for taking a principled position. The problem I have with it is that in practice it’s as unworkable as Communism.

I also applaud @StupidMoniker for his skill at derailing a thread.

 

Canadians do not require a physical visa to travel into the US. They can enter on what is known as Visa Waiver (ESTA or WB/WT) and they generally are allowed to stay for six months at a time. ICE noted that the perpetrator last entered from the southern border at San Ysidro in early March, and, yes, had overstayed his six months. Boy that will get the RedMeat crowd roaring.

I assume he departed and re-entered on the same day and that is what many Canadians will do to keep themselves in legal status

I also assume that by early September (6 months after his entry) he was in the throes of his obsession after he had become radicalized and was focused on other tasks besides heading to the nearest border for a day

 

Yeah, you should be able to talk about it, but why would you bring it up in a thread about her husband being hit in the head, why would you even be thinking about it when reading this thread?

There are plenty of other threads to talk about that, or you could even make a new thread on the topic.

You did not show much empathy when you brought up what she does in Washington when her husband just had surgery for a severe head trauma.

Best way to humanize Pelosi?

Why does she need humanizing in the 1st place, she is an actual human being right?

 

That's because the law allows the process to be that way (broken system) + underfunding of the system.

You are still talking about the parent. Kids be damn by your choice because of parents. Immoral in my book.

 

Useful thread for the indignant on this website:

 

Yes because the facts that have come out don't support that. Continuing to support something by raising unsubstantiated speculation is "conspiracy theory."

 

i would say they are more dumbasses and/or partisan hacks than conspiracy theorists.

 

covid 19 came from a lab leak

 

Not enforcing one's own border rules is also immoral, isn't it? It's unfair to those who wish to immigrate over here legally.

 

There is some possible evidence for that and I've not considered that an unsubstantiated conspiracy theory. I do think the theory that the PRC deliberately developed COVID-19 and used it against the US isn't supported and makes no sense.

With this case there doesn't appear to be evidence that this was some sort of tryst gone wrong, that Paul Pelosi knew the attacker or there was another person there. Continuing to push those does appear to be a conspiracy theory.

 

pretty sure the Wuhan lab leak theory was considered a groundless conspiracy theory for a long time

 

Washington Post acknowledges as much:

The media called the ‘lab leak’ story a ‘conspiracy theory.’ Now it’s prompted corrections — and serious new reporting.

Unfair, absolutely. Immoral <> Unfair. But you might be thinking more than just being unfair... elaborate?

 

Yes and bringing out disingenuous conspiracy theories then crying about it is classic victim complex. Everyone out to get them boo hoo

 

tell me you didn't read the thread w/o telling me you didn't read the thread.
