Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez rips Elon Musk: 'In this country, we hate Nazis'

Oh, it’s even worse: Dem leadership is actively suppressing her ascendancy.

Fixed

Fascism isn't coming.

It's here.

And the number of people standing up against it is so small it's practically the butt of a joke.

We're cooked. Buy a gun. Protect yourself.

Surprise!

Yeah all these media sources keep saying things like "a day after Musk used an arm gesture, twice, that resembled the Roman salute adopted by the Nazis."

It's blatantly obvious that they're afraid of getting sued. Kind of like instead of saying someone lied, they'll soften it up to say they made a statement that some fact checkers may disagree with.

Yup. Twice in a row. Exactly as the Nazis did it.

Stand to attention facing the crowd. Hand to chest, then full extension. Turn around to face the Fuhrer, or if he isn't there, the Nazi flag. Then stand to attention and sieg heil again.

He did it. It's not debatable. Don't engage in debate with bad actors attempting to rewrite this history. The richest man in the world, who will act in an official capacity in the White House, is openly a Nazi. Because you are a Nazi if you perform a Nazi salute.

Yeah, he did it a second time to assure everyone of this.

It's one of the reasons reactionaries hate her so much.

And also that she's a woman of color who didn't stay "in her place."

And it's so annoying to hear liberals parrot the same shit because the conglomerates who own liberal media don't want to change the status quo.

You for got Sanders

There's a few more, but she's the most charismatic. It's a shame too, they tend to win more than their moderate counterparts during midterm races.

The ones who don't aren't our countrymen and I look forward to the day enough of us recognize it.

Yeah but when my grandfather did it he had an M1

She's not here to hear you. Send that as an email/voicemail so she knows what you want to say.

Well, you certainly used to, judging by the efforts and sacrifices 80 years ago, but there's certainly a lot of evidence to indicate a lot of Americans of today think you were on the wrong side back then.

Assuming you're American, you do understand the irony of America taking in the most nazi elite and scientists for their own personal projects right? Also if you read mein kampf you'll find it fascinating how much he was inspired by American legalised racism and ethnic cleanings. America is a nation built like how Israel was, through ideological and legalized genocide, racism, fascism and racism. I'm starting to comprehend how the soviet did the real nazi killing and suffered the real consequences of the Nazis unlike America.

Hey 2A enthusiasts. This is the moment you've been saying you need your guns for your entire pathetic lives. Where you at?

They're apparently calling for gun control in the threads discussing LGBTQ+ people arming themselves.

Kill Nazis. Kill Nazi CEOs twice.

That moment for 2A enthusaists came when Alabama banned abortion (before Roe v. Wade was overturned) and when Trump was putting children in cages. They didn't then... they were the Nazis all along. The same people who just wanted to be the Brownshirts, but with their own personal firearms and not something issued to them.

We're seeing a similiar bullshit in Israel with West Bank illegal 'settlers' carrying M4 pattern rifles with them to the 'homes'.

As an LGBTQ+ person who supports the NRA and believes we need substantially more guns in America and to repeal all gun regulation, I really hope all LGBTQ+ and allies not only are armed, but realize the benefit of owning a variety of firearms.

Since conservatives are trying to say some or all LGBTQ+ people are mentally ill, and mental illness is often used to justify disarming people, it's really important for LGBTQ+ people to be aware of these issues.

In the US, gender dyphoria is classified as a mental illness under the DSM and so technically any trans person who has seen a doctor is mentally ill and not allowed to own guns.

Therefore, trans people will hopefully realize the important of being armed prior to disclosing their trans status to a doctor and decent people should do their best to not only the discredit the DSM as the pseudointellectual biased phrenologyesque crock of shit that it is, but also to have gender dysphoria removed as a psychiatric issue and labeled for what it is, a medical issue resulting from brain differences that requires treatment.

Nazis used to be flesh and blood. Now they’re phantoms

I heard an interview with the sci-fi author Kim Stanley Robinson, and he said something that I love: "pessimism is almost a dereliction of duty."

If we want the world to be a better place, we have to make it a better place.

Thank you, this comment section has some of this cynisim already. Yes she's saying very eviden things but the other side is winning precisely by creating a culture of fear and overwhelming toxicity and locking you in echo chambers that eat at you by making you think their normal is The normal. It's not lying than to project what you want into the world until enough people are in on it and pressure bad elements into hiding or into changing path.

Fuck, dude. Maybe I have become too cynical. I've become a little dejected these last few days/weeks/months, but that was actually inspiring.

I should follow your username's advice more lol.

Extremely well said.

Yeah. I'm a fucking American. A real American who takes pride in national heroes like the Abraham Lincoln Brigade and many others who fought and died opposing fascism

Nobody could have predicted him to be a bad person. Really, that came as a surprise for everyone 🤡

You think the numbers are that low? I'd say tops only 33% of the US still hates nazis. The remainder are split between loving them or being indifferent

25% of people who couldn't be bothered to care are still considered Nazis as far as I know

Nazism is almost an American export, even. See, for example, How the Nazis were inspired by Jim Crow.

We love nazis so much we saved half of them after WW2 and brought them back home.

And the other is passive fascist enablers.

Wow, what an awkward way of saying hi!

Same. But she better not be the only dissenting voice!

She'll be MLK Jr'd before she becomes any sort of real voice. We can't rely on idolising individuals anymore, that's what fascists do.

Bold of you to assume there will be a 2028 election

Edit: commenter made a good point. It's foolish to abandon any potential avenue of change, even if it seems like a lost cause

It's hilarious that you think you're getting another election before Vance dies of old age. I hope you're right of course but I'm pretty sure your future "elections" will be performative. You're going to have to take that right back.

This is an unpopular opinion with .world mods, but I believe nazis should be dealt with immediately.

Where are the 2A nutjobs now?

This is literally what they've been waiting for. Pick up your guns and go deal with Nazis right here on the American mainland. In the White House.

Bioshock Infinite vibes.

That was before WW2, no less. Funny how after all that happened, people saw that and went, "Yeah that was a good idea."

Same. Nazi killing practically runs in the family at this point.

Not even gonna bother with a 'brown shirts will be shot' sign.

Americans have zero excuse. You could argue that Germany was ruined by WW1 and the war reparations back in the 30s. But the US economy is doing much better than all other developed economies these days. Americans voted fascists in just because.

They say, while tumbling head first into tyranny.

It was just cause of the war, they were popular before.

I was about to comment this. The American National Socialist group had massive rallies, if we never got involved with WW2, we'd probably be massive friends with Hitler and use his policies as a springboard.

Hitler was influenced by America's mistreatment of natives and black people for his solutions to the "Jewish question". We would have probably agreed if he was born in Mississippi and not Austria.

No one voted for Elon Musk, but here he is in the White House marching around doing the goose step.

AND T E A R S
\ until it's not even started

This card says moops!

Stop. Stop this insanity. That woman is standing up for you. Whether or not you care you'll never match it, so just stop.
