So… they are criticizing her for not trying to overthrow democracy? Like trying to pull a coup would have been the only rational, non-hypocritical response here? What a worrying attitude
The real answer is the kind of party that a majority of voters chose a rapist felon over. I don’t even want to help them, anymore, I started learning German again just in case I feel like leaving.
They’re criticizing her for saying “he’s facist hitler” through the campaign as the sole message, and then when they lose, shrugging and treating it like any other loss. “Oh well, better luck next time!”
Babylon Bee’s point is that the rhetoric doesn’t match the actions. If he was Hitler, then why are you handing him the reigns like this is just any other election? Their implication is that the campaign dramatized his impact and demonized him. They’re right about the criticism but wrong about the reason.
He DOES represent the evils they’ve been espousing, and they are laying down and doing fuck all about it except paving him a clear path. Babylon Bee has managed to accidentally write their most non-partisan headline ever by accident, and a scathing indictment of spineless liberalism.
I often wondered how I would have felt if I was alive in the 1920s to 1940s and seen the rise of this shit. I now am confident that I would never have been a fascist, because I sure as hell fucking hate these people right now.
The question future resistance members must ask themselves is whether they start organizing now, or wait until prospective members won’t fuck things up by not taking opsec seriously.

Yes. What kind of party hands over power to people they know is fascist?
A liberal one, yes. Which is the problem, and why liberalism eventually gives way to fascism when a capitalist state is in decline.

Because it seems to be pointed in the direction of a civil war and an end to the US republic
What do you think should be done instead?
Be as petty as he was and do everything in their power to sabotage what they can and leave him a mess?
Isn’t it funny that a mere 4 years later, democrats forgot how to cheat and steal an election? /s
God I want to punch everyone who voted for this moron. I really do.
Only if you don’t believe Donald Trump’s own words.
Since when did we start believing trump ?
Isn’t he commonly understood to be a pathological liar ?
If you were alive in 1930s Europe, would you have said the same thing about Hitler and Mussolini?
Time really is a fucking circle.
