When the Nazis came to power in Germany, they did so with only 37% of the vote. It was only after they came to power that German corporations rolled over for them. None of this is very surprising.

I cannot get my head around how completely unhinged and fucked up this is. The Ambassador to Israel implied that the President of the United States will hear the voice of God and that he should drop nukes on Iran. The United States needs regime change. Quickly.

Hey, Americans. Do you have any idea how batshit crazy this looks from outside your borders? Youāre pardoning January 6 insurrectionists while sending in the National Guard against protests about people getting snatched on the streets with no due process? This is another level of fucked up.
