stalin-garrison objectively the moderate wing of fascism btw

it makes me think of how the confederate leadership were pardoned by Andrew Johnson after half a million conscripts died. You can shed endless scalding tears for the scratch on the god emperor's ear, enough to fill a river, and it still won't buy you one bit of sympathy from the hogs. They will want to flay you alive when they get power. So who's this for? The press?

    They all just want to dissuade people from shooting random politicians they don't like at a whim. She and Biden and everyone else have people who would very much like them dead, sometimes for good reason, sometimes because America is a wild west for bloodthirsty chuds. It is an exercise in self preservation. They don't want pOlItIcAl ViOlEnCe. They want people to go vent their anger on Twitter or sign petitions on change.org.

      I just don't know why they think begging the people who want to kill them to calm down will work. It's a nonviable strategy even from the perspective of self preservation. Reactionary adventurists aren't going to change their mind based on these kinds of statements lmfao.

        It's to keep the libs in line, and it's why everyone in the media is doing it, in hopes the libs forget the rhetoric that Trump is a violent fascist that needs to be exterminated and the rest of the conservatives will be too busy kissing every last word out of Trump to do anything
