Nat Oleander on Nostr: Diet Fascism™ can't save us from Standard Fascism because that's not why it exists. ...
Diet Fascism™ can't save us from Standard Fascism because that's not why it exists. The Democrats **fundraise like hell** when Trump & Co are in power, because Diet Fascism™ is so much more palatable than the bad optics of in-your-face authoritarianism.
Yes, it's bad that the rule of law is being flouted & people are being kidnapped and disappeared without due process. But due process only ever existed for people with money, power & privilege. The courts are money-laundering machines.
