Cult followers will frequently blame others for their won intellectual limitations and failure to resist their own indoctrination. Almost as if deep down they know they are mentally weak and have been indoctrinated but excuse their weakness by publicly proclaiming that they had no other choice in the matter (For example: "I had to vote for fascist white supremacists because the Democrats were just so awful").

"Who are these people who died for the establishment of our nation?"

An untold number of African slaves. Or if you look at it a different way, millions of darker-skinned peoples who were forcefully deported from their native lands by wealthy, white supremacist enslavers.

"I honestly don't think you understand how law works (or is supposed to work"

Members of fascist organizations and/or cults tend to do that when they join. Fascist/cult leaders like Trump aim to detach their followers from reality.

You'll also notice that fascist movements and/or cults tend to infect those who aren't really looking for a God, but those who are most certainly looking for a Devil; a devil in which they can blame for all of their perceived misfortunes but also a devil that they can use as a model for how to respond to these apparent injuries. That is why you find cult leaders like Trump his cult followers frequently mimicking the imagined evils they apply to and so vehemently criticize in their adversaries.

"For true Capitalists, Fascism has more to do with profit, than any sort of political ideology"

The central focus of American policy is to use fascism to preserve capitalism while claiming to be saving democracy from communism.

I'm paraphrasing something I read from a book called "Blackshirts and Reds" by Michael Parenti which I read about 20 years ago.

Sounds as if they are doing Watergate-type burglaries right out in the open now.

Power never empowers others, it only consolidates power for itself.

Remember that when your government, whether left or right, tells you it is helping you or empowering you. It is simply helping itself consolidate more power.

Everything being done by those in power to "help" you feel more secure is actually done in order to make you LESS secure so you will not resist their further consolidation of power.

For 10 years MAGA has been condtioned to look to DJT to empower them, but in return he has simply consolidated power for the wealthy and elite under the guise of giving them what they thought they wanted.

And 'what they wanted" was simply a manufactured poison brew of hatred and blame, directed at the most vulnerable of our society.

Anyone resisting MAGA, Zionism, or any other fascist or supremacist movements should understand that those movements are perpetually on the attack and perpetually engaged in a pre-emptive counterstrike against thinking people in order to prevent the invalidation of their authority and control over how they are perceived.

Their authority is fundamentally invalid and their control rests entirely on manipulating perception. You will need to remain on constant guard against all they say and do. Above all, do not sink to the level of partisan sparring. Fascist and supremacist movements operate at a higher level that spreads manipulation and falsehood across the political spectrum in order to either perpetually confuse people or to herd them into a "left vs. Right" mentality.

I would argue that this information, although of concern, is simply a diversion tactic to keep pressure away from where it truly belongs. That would be America's "greatest ally" Israel. Epstein's most extensive ties were between two countries: America and Israel.

I only see a couple of people here focusing on that. Everyone else seems exclusively focused on partisan bickering, which ultimately will solve nothing and just perpetuate the same extreme divisiveness that has been going on in America over the past 30 years. From my Muslim standpoint, it reminds me of Sunni vs. Shia. Left vs. right will infect the country for generations to come and result in continued inferior choices for executive leadership.

If Israel has accepted it, then it must be a much, much higher number.

As with the original Holocaust, the Palestinian Holocaust will take time tabulate the true numbers of the dead, maimed, and permanently, psychologically damaged.

"11 shots into his back. He wasn't brandishing a weapon. He had a camera when ICE stormed him."

Reminds me quite eerily of a man named Amadou Diallo ... 30 years ago, in NYC. Murdered by future MAGAs of the NYPD. Read his story.

Gone but not forgotten, never ever.

Epstein's modus operandi is hidden in plain sight.

Do you remember hearing about those protocols that you were told to ignore because they were nothing more than "antisemitic forgeries"?
Well, just because they were "antisemitic forgeries" doesn't mean they still couldn't be adopted and followed.

Read them and (using recent events as a guide) make your own conclusions.

Time to once again throw the "T" overboard.

Trump embraces chaos and nihilism as a freedom from traditional notions of order and morality, allowing him to justify extreme actions and create new, often violent, values through the absolute power of the fascist state.

Reject chaos and nihilism and you will be better equipped to deal with the words and actions of him and his fascist death cult.

MAGA: condemned to death yet walking eagerly to the scaffold, convinced that their self-selected executioner will spare them from the sharpened blade of his well-worn, blood-soaked axe.

To coin a term: Israelawfare

Unfortunate domestic events like this tend to happen when your own country has done repeatedly the same thing, except on a global scale.

South Park is depraved. Nothing near Trump depraved, but depraved. Just because they target Trump doesn't make them any less of a cultural embarrassment. They continue to wallow in the same perverted sewer as Trump and many of his followers thinking that somehow passes for incisive satire. As a result, both sides cancel one another out and the world is made to bear the brunt of its continued normalization of depravity.

One wonders that if Jesus was alive, would he repudiate 2 Timothy 24 and resort to incessant penis jokes to bring down the Pharisees and help the meek inherit the Earth?
