    This kind of shit is basically Nazi rhetoric. Only difference is that they're using accusing people of being Marxists instead of Bolsheviks. It's the same thing with "cultural Marxism", which the Nazis called "cultural Bolshevism".

      What's wild is Marxists actually had some power then and there are probably zero Marxists in the entire US government.

      yeah this whole wave has made me uncomfortable for the first time in a while... usually right wing derangement and twitter doesn't bother me at all but this wave - it's so detached from reality and so thirsty for retribution. Strong nazi vibes.

        Trumpists were fantasizing about killing their neighbors and grandpas for being democrats in 2019. The only thing that came from it were some isolated suicides and familial murder suicides (one of which was a suicide pact)
