They did that before there was the internet. The need to adopt alternative decentralized media platforms is now extremely important.
The Nazis also did not have a majority in the parliament. It parallels with America where Trump only got 30% of support from the entire eligible voters, many of whom sat out the elections.
I don't know, I am not an expert on the American constitution or law, but from the looks of it, the checks and balance is still holding up well; with many courts opposing the Republican and Trump decisions. However, the checks and balance is effective until it is not. The United States modeled itself from the Roman Republic, but the system of checks and balance actually did a pretty good job keeping many aspiring tyrants and dictators away until it did not (I am going on tangent to say that this is one of the many reasons why the West being awed at and modeling itself from the Roman empire is so overrated and a mistake).
I'd argue that 3 and 5 have already happened. Look at all the BLM matches that ended in violence. And look at what's happening now with the LGBTQ+ population, specifically trans people.
Regarding #5, he's explicitly expansionist by his own admission, and he's already limiting the rights of transgender people, and deporting immigrants. Not sure it's at Hitler levels quite yet, but jesus christ.
|Not sure it’s at Hitler levels quite yet,
Give him time and it will be.
I dread that and I dearly hope not.
We’ve already crossed three thresholds, and the last two loom uncomfortably close. The rhetoric of "purging undesirables" has shifted to coded language, but the intent is unmistakable. Calls to target specific groups—whether immigrants, LGBTQ+ individuals, or marginalized communities—are thinly veiled attempts to normalize exclusion and dehumanization.
As for expansionism, it’s no longer about borders; it’s about influence. Economic imperialism and cultural domination are the modern equivalents. The playbook hasn’t changed—just the tools.
The question isn’t if we’ll cross these lines but when. Without resistance, the machinery of oppression will grind forward, cloaked in patriotism and "values." We’re watching history’s shadow stretch over us, and pretending it’s not happening won’t stop it.
That's exactly what Biden did. But you missed one thing - flood the country with illegal aliens to destabilize society, thereby making them easier to control.
Either that or they're just a fucking moron.
This is a much better fascism dashboard:
I think that the lack of a point for the suppression of LGBTQIA+ people is a critical error in the data there. Transgender people were deeply and violently suppressed in Nazi Germany, and very early on.
That falls under the categories "Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights" and "Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause" -- each of those groups has anti-LGBT articles under them
None of the categories are specific to any particular demographic, they're all pretty broad ranging from what I see
I'll bear that in mind when posting to [email protected]
😉
I contend that there isn't anyone who doesn't already know this/see this. It's that the people who cheer on Trump know damn well it's happening and literally don't care.
It's not that they're not aware of the rise of fascism, it's that they agree with it. They are the same people who say "Well...the nazis had the trains running on time...etc...etc..."
(Which by the way is a complete falsehood. The so-called expert organisation and planning and detail oriented myth of the nazi state was exactly that...a myth.)
The list above is not something that they didn't realise they were voting for. It's something that they actively voted for.

I take your point, but just today at work I had someone tell me how their family had fled to come to the US due to political violence in the past. I kinda vaguely was like "yeah, it's pretty scary to think about how similar things are looking right now" and his response was, "I'm just counting on the idea that politicians don't do what they say."
Well, we were already deeper into politics than I like to get at work, but I wanted to scream HE'S ALREADY DOING IT! (AND IT WAS ALREADY DONE BEFORE TO YOUR FAMILY!)
I just nodded and smiled as I walked away.
3 already lowkey happened with BLM and then blaming immigration in order to beef up the police and “law and order”. But I have a feeling it’s going to happen again in a second stronger wave.
You should also check out what they're doing to protesters, students, and teachers who protest against genocide.
This is why active physical protests are being discouraged. It's playing into their hand and won't accomplish what we want.
We have to play smarter because even if we are perfectly good and peaceful and somehow right wing jackoffs aren't sneaking in to stir the pot? The media will frame it as a barely contained pot about to boil over.
The media will frame it as a barely contained pot about to boil over.
The media has already been framing US cities like this for quite some time. Do not let that stop you. If they do not have enough civil unrest to justify oppression, they will manufacture it. If they can't manufacture it, they will fabricate evidence of it. Do not discourage protests for the sake of appearing civil and moderate.
Number 3 is the one I’m most worried about. There will be riots soon as the populace is close to the breaking point on things and that’s going to be the only excuse they need.
I see the war on trans people as #3. Even before the rise of the Trump regime, every time there's a school shooter, the right already immediately started spreading lies about the attacker being trans. Now the open persecution has begun. When you try to erase a group from the law, target their basic ID documents, their healthcare, their very existence? The Trump regime has declared war on the trans population.
You can only push people so far before some of them start building bombs. You can only take so many innocent lives before the reprisal killings start. And I think that's the goal here, beyond just outright bigotry. Spread lies about a group being prone to acts of violence. Start persecuting that group using every lever of power available. When some members of that group inevitably respond with violence, the broader populace will already be primed to accept that the group is prone to irrational violence. You can then use that as justification for even more draconian acts of repression.
i’d say #5…
“jews, gypsies, homosexuals & disabled” ->
“<<racial slur for hispanic>>, homeless, trans & DEI”
1,2, and 4 will lead to 3, which will then lead to 5.
Why isn't 5 circled or possibly crossed off? We've identified "illegal immigrants" as the enemies of the state, are shipping them off to essentially black-site prisons, and are threatening/attempting to annex Canada, Mexico, Panama, and Greenland. The argument for Greenland is to protect our borders.
Not yet, gotta get through the facisim foreplay first
I'm on the fence if Russia has the third one atm.
russia is at like 4.5/5
r/anormaldayinrussia
As s country, we are inherently lazy so #3 will take some instigating to get that ball rolling.
I cannot believe that another Mario brother hasn't stepped up to the plate.
Look up the umbrella man for questions about 3
#5 is always happening somewhere in the empire. I recommend checking out palestine, sudan, etc.
