The entire world is under threat of resurgent conservative, right wing, plutocratic fascism but the village idiots of the USA don't know or care about that, they're too busy looking for "communists" hiding under the bed.

Did you see hillbilly-hating Midwestern Neo-Confederate and anti-democracy fascist opportunist, VP Vance, saying he thought the Watergate break-in ending a presidency was "crazy" and that "Tricky Dick" Nixon's "historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so?" Republicans.

FYI for those just emerging from a long slumber: the threat of communism essentially ended with the demise of the USSR in 1991 and the adoption by China and its clients of conservative market economics. What conservatives call “communism” now is democracy when voters choose liberal left economics.

It's funny when conservatives, Republicans like Lord Dampnut walk around demanding people respect them. They don't even have the personal character, the values, the morals to understand what respect is, what it means, where it comes from. Here's a hint: Do something worthy of respect.

One problem with the USA is so many associate "success" with obtaining relatively vast economic power, becoming enormously rich, joining the one percent, the establishment elite, laughing at the poor, so to preserve their chance of success, no matter how small, they defend vast economic inequality.

I saw in a recent video Lord Dampnut is still touting his false claims of drug price reductions of "400, 500, even 600 percent," and people still sit and listen to that garbage? Conservative, Republican voters are just incorrigible, aren't they? "We don't care, do you?"

Apparently supporting Iran soccer's dubious claim unfair treatment by FIFA and the US made them lose their match is a thing with some opposed to Lord Dampnut's Iran War, despite agreeing to terms, outrageously demanding suppression of Gay Pride, losing a game they could easily have won? Whatever.

Interesting that fascist Leader, conservative, Republican Lord Dampnut went back to an old conservative objection to communism based on religion rather than politics or left economics when he called Democratic Socialists / social democrats as "godless communists." So no atheism allowed?

Reading between the lines of Iran soccer's little speech, "The gay pride festival in Seattle made me miss my penalty kick."

They should make a place where people indoctrinated from birth into different religions, different religious tribes if you like, vie against one another for gold and world domination using any means available and ... oh ... never mind.

My impression is conservative Americans are just as annoyed at reminders fascism is conservatism as they were pleased eighteen years ago when reading some idiot book that argued fascism is liberalism. US fascism is such a coy, bashful, self-denying little monster, am I right?

Conservative, Republican voters oppose democracy because it's "communism." Seriously. Their beloved leader, idol, icon Lord Dampnut (aka Donald Trump) recently explained if voters dare challenge conservative views on economics including the normative or moral "equity" content, that's "communism."

I saw anti-democracy, anti-US Constitution, anti-USA Neo-Confederate and fascist Rep. Johnson, “Republican Moses” of the Deep South Neo-Confederate province of Louisiana, saying Dems should leave the USA (implied, if they hate conservative, Republican fascism so much). He wishes.

Did you see the recent post by Lord Dampnut in which he described as "communism" voters in a democracy looking into what are called equity issues in neoclassical welfare economics, ethical views about the allocation of resources, who gets what and why, that sort of thing? Fascism.

Lord Dampnut to his mostly southern and central mostly rural and small town "white" supremacist Neo-Confederate base on his Iran War deal, "See! I told you I could do it better than a'black' man!" Neo-Confederate base, "Umm ... yay ... he did it ..."

I wonder if Iran will take any general lesson from the fact their soccer players can compete in a city in which gay pride festivals and symbols appear and they can just "concentrate on football?" Life needn't always be so contentious, harsh. If they're not interfering with what you're doing, ...

Do you know what the love child of the 19th century racist, pro-slavery, anti-democracy, anti-US Constitution, anti-USA southern Confederacy and early 20th century conservative, right wing, racist, war mongering European fascism as Nazism might look like? Yes, you do.

I was reading some comments I thought exemplified why so many conservative voters support giving economic power, such a big role in our democracy, as per say Citizens United. They suppose the need to woo and be accepted by at least some establishment elite big money donors may keep "leftists" out.

One good thing about our current era is at least among serious, sincere, mature people, we can finally put away the notion widespread gun ownership is a necessarily evil to prevent against tyrannical government. If anything, it promotes, encourages, defends the development of tyrannical government.

I called my latest blog post Conservative Fascism, then recalled a bit of right wing, conservative rot in the form of a book "Liberal Fascism" that proposed fascism was liberalism and leftism. It was a #1 NYT Best Seller in 2008, a full 18 years ago. Still, some people, "How did we get here?"

Just to be clear, "Democratic Socialism" is basically just traditional US liberalism / progressivism. If you're worried about the success of Democratic candidates calling themselves "democratic socialists," what you're concerned about is the resurgence of traditional US liberalism / progressivism.

The case of the Democratic Socialists is interesting because they now seem just another outlet for pro-democracy US liberals or progressives, but formerly I read some ostensible Democratic Socialists espousing anti-liberal, anti-democracy communist rot. I'm guessing now they were false flag trolls?

I wonder why our our corrupt conservative, right wing, Republican majority Supreme Court struck down a law in blue state Hawaii restricting the carrying of guns in stores and hotels but doesn't seem bothered at all by similar restrictions applied to conservative, Republican political events?

Want to hear my lightly paraphrased re-telling of a recent tale by Lord Dampnut? "A big, tall, tough, well-muscled, manly man came up to me the other day. He was wearing one of those skimpy briefs like a body builder or exotic dancer. All oiled up. Huge package. You love meat, right?" (5)

Lord Dampnut to Ron Burgundy, "What is love?" RB: "Well, it's tough to explain ..." LD: "I think I was in love once. I was 60, she was 16. I tortured her nipples bad, raped her, threatened her, never saw her again." RB: "I'm pretty sure that's not love." LD, sotto voce: "Dammit."

One can really sense the urgency of Lord Dampnut's voter restriction / manipulation schemes for conservatives, Republicans. It's getting to be decision time for them, and it all hinges on if they can corrupt democracy enough to make it work for them or they need to eliminate it entirely.

I feel there may be some confusion about the relation of economic power, property, business, markets, to fascism, perhaps caused by a determined and ongoing conservative, right wing rhetorical effort to inaptly cast fascism as communism. Let's discuss it this week. (19) #EconSky #ethics

I suppose if one were color blind one might not be able to distinguish "American flag blue" from "algae swamp green" or even "dollar bill green," right? I'm just saying. I know fascist Lord Dampnut is racist as hell, but might he be literally color blind at least along the blue - green dimension?

I find the social role of professional sport rather more interesting than the sport itself. I can watch grown men running around a field kicking a ball or whatever now and then, but hardly something I'd do on a regular basis. But the fans. Acting the fool, losing their minds. Why? Intriguing.

Nice one. Speaking of bad religion, Iran and Egypt wanted to make as a condition of them participating in the World Cup in the USA the cancelling of local LGBTQ+ pride events, prohibiting flags, and so on. Didn't pan out, even with their conservative, Republican buddies around to help them out.

It's not unusual to be loved by anyone. Poetry from another place. Swinging 1965. And how. If you should ever want to be loved by anyone, it's not unusual, it happens every day, no matter what they say, you'll find it happens all the time. Then cue the trumpets. Who-oa-oa-oa! Memento mori.

The shared promise of Judaism, Islam, and Christianity: follow our moral recommendations and the whole world can be just as peaceful, reasonable, rational, fair, just, equitable, compassionate, loving as the uber-devout Middle Eastern "Holy Land" is now.

Funny. I passed one of those bearded, bedraggled, mentally unstable street people who stand around with placards shouting at people and all his material was about Dems, former present Clinton, that sort of thing. Just complete blind spot for Republicans, Trump. Typical conservative, Republican.

Speaking of the dumbed-down quality of popular culture in the US, who wrote the memo that playing soccer would henceforth be described as "asking questions?" Sounds like a symposium, but it's more like, Should I kick the ball? Head it? Pass it? What's this game called, anyway? Is it pay day yet?

The funny thing about fascist Leader / crime boss / conservative, Rapepublican president Lord Dampnut, famous rapist and misogynist, being into nipple torture is it’s just so damned predictable. Of course. Nothing conservatives, Rapeublicans do is ever surprising, unexpected, unique, mysterious.

According to the description of Lord Dampnut's Iran War was to destroy the economy of Iran, which he calls a "win" for Americans, and we're meant to suppose it wasn't done at the behest of Iran's local adversary and competitor Israel, it wasn't just Lord Dampnut following Mr. Netanyahu's orders?

One potentially good thing about conservative, Republican, fascist Leader Lord Dampnut stinking up history books for all recorded time is it may remind all serious, mature people the turpitude, unworthiness of respect, ignorance, hubris, of rural and small town conservatives in the USA.

Word to the wise. If you're in the USA and you're reading anything from an English-speaking nation that is not the USA as the UK, Australia, maybe even Canada and you hear the term "neoliberal" just replace it with "conservative," which is typically the corresponding term in the USA.

Some Americans, "Why isn't the liberal / progressive / left faction of the Dem Party more popular?" Also, "Wait, so you're saying business owners aren't working for the welfare of their workers and customers? They're just out there to make a buck? Profits? Well, I'll be."

Why do I keep getting the impression some Americans have never thought critically about our economic system? One day it's companies aren't interested in workers' welfare, the next it's business execs and owners are greedy, then it's Hollywood is about making money, not art. You think?

The reason conservatives, Republicans hate Muslims and the religion of Islam so much, despite the support of so-called Michigan Muslims, is conservatives, Republicans want Christo-fascism as a state religion. When they talk about the threat of Islam, they mean as a competing state religion.

I think it's funny when people profess to not understand the normative values, morals, ethics associated with bad economics in the conservative style, market utopianism, hatred for the poor, promoted by academic economists and others, a virtual secular religion for many in the USA. #EconSky #ethics

Did corrupt fascist Leader / crime boss Lord Dampnut purposefully turn the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool into a swamp because he used to joke about "draining The Swamp?" $14 M taxpayer money without normal competitive bidding. He's a funny guy, right? Conservatives? Republicans?

I infer Lady Malaria, Lord Dampnut's wife, has quite a cult following of her own. I did a post I supposed taking a jab at conservative, Republican assessments of women by pretending to laud her as a successful escort and some posters weren't having it, even as a depiction of other people's view.

BTW, you'll never be able to fully address anti-democracy, pro-fascist sentiment in the USA without fixing academic economics and its promotion of anti-democracy bad economics in the conservative style (and sequelae). Too many misguided sorts suppose it "smart" or "scientific" to be anti-democracy.

Someone mentioned the weird zombie-like quality of genetic oddity from rural Kentucky, Sen. McConnnel, the fellow who tried to imitate a human laugh after finishing corrupting the Supreme Court, and it got me wondering, you don't suppose he's in a symbiotic relationship with fascist ghoul Nazferatu?

At times like the ones in which we live today, one appreciates the wisdom of Mother Nature in humans evolving to have relatively modest lifespans, so that no one person nor even generation can continue to pollute, poison, destroy forever. Everything evil does, time will one day destroy.

Do you want to know what happens to a society that doesn't care to read, think, talk, discuss, debate about philosophy, ethics, morals? You're kidding me, right?

The funny thing it, I don't suppose we'll ever know how many, or which, conservative, Republican voters are so stupid and mentally incompetent one may dismiss them as not really knowing what they're doing and how many so evil and dishonest one may hold them accountable as competent adult citizens.

It's like, "Look at me! I'm so stupid, so full of s__t, I didn't even know what I was promoting the past three of four decades!" Either that or it's, "Look at me! I'm a big fat liar! Do you like big fat liars? Then I'm your man!." Thinking of a post I read from some fool named Bill Kristol.
