> Frankly, I never would’ve categorized her post as anything that could get someone in trouble. Even in today’s cancel climate.

She revealed that they are instituting their plan.

> So by firing her, they proved her point.

Exactly.

If you’re not already familiar, read a bit about Stalin’s purges of political opposition and other undesirables to achieve cultural “unity” circa 1936-1938.

It’s disturbingly similar to the current Left’s Purge of Conservatives, Republicans and especially Trump and his supporters. Only significant difference at this time, instead of a bullet to the back of the head, it’s ruined careers, terminated jobs, and social ostracism. And, an occasional beating or murder!

Why is ANYONE stupid enough to post ANYTHING on social media these days?????

____________________________________________________-

The political Left gets to post whatever they want on social media. Nobody on that side of the political aisle thinks they are stupid. Hell, as much as I loathe the Left....I’d say they are pretty smart. They get to lambast conservatives...bait them into simply stating their opinion...and then get conservatives fired and harrassed.

WRONG

She compared the actions of militant Leftists to NAZIS.

And she's correct.

Despotism (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaWSqboZr1w

“A community is low on a ‘Respect’ scale if common courtesy is withheld from large groups of people on account of their political attitudes.”

“...in a downright despotism opposition is dangerous whether the despotism is official or whether it is unofficial...”

“A community rates low on the ‘Information’ scale when the press, radio, and other channels of communication are controlled by only a few people and when citizens have to accept what they are told.”

“See how a community trains its teachers”
“...these students are being taught to accept uncritically whatever they are told. Questions are not encouraged.”

“And if books and newspapers and the radio [and facebook and youtube and...] are officially controlled the people will read and accept exactly what the few in control want them to. Government censorship is one form of control. The newspaper that breaks the government censorship rule can be suspended. It is also possible for newspapers and other lines of communication to be controlled by private interests...”

Democracy (Encyclopedia Britannica film, circa 1946)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx25aMPvbJo

“The newspapers of a real democracy meet these tests...”

Newspaper checks.
1. Balance of coverage
2. Disclosure of source
3. Competence of staff

The farther a society strays from truth, the more people will hate those who tell it.

The “press” is editorializing by calling her posts “offensive”

Madonna saying she wanted to blow up the White House was offensive
Michael Moore saying that we deserve to be defeated in Iraq by “insurgent” terrorists engaging in war crimes was offensive
Kathy Griffin holding a mock bloody severed head of Donald Trump was offensive

Pointing out historical analogies is not offensive.

Afterwards she apparently went on the BabylonBee podcast.

Didn’t the Democrat Media FACT CHECK Babylon Bee last year for a satirical article?

“After Comparing Republicans to Holocaust Victims”

She did no such thing. She compared Republicans to Jews in 1930s Germany who were harassed by the brainwashed public and she is right on. How Trump supporters are treated today is EXACTLY how Jews were treated in 1930s Germany. They spit on us in the street, we are beaten, are property destroyed, businesses destroyed, the left even has their own version of Kristallnacht which they’ve done a number of times. Wearing a MAGA hat today is pretty much like wearing a Yellow star in Nazi Germany. If a brainwashed sees it, you are pretty much guaranteed to be abused and beaten and if we revolt what happens? They come down 100 times harder on us than they do their own paramilitary terror groups like Antifa and BLM.

But of course speaking the truth today gets you destroyed because just like 1930s Germany, NOTHING is more important than party! Mandalorian was a good show, too bad I have to stop watching it now.

Same way the Leftist media, historians/academics, et al hold “McCarthyism” up as something it was not.

And yet Nanzism (as pushed by Nanzi Pelosi) IS all of those things and worse. Paranoid hysteria, blacklisting, doxing, beatdowns, death threats, cancel culture, fabrication of “evidence/quotes”, illegal monitoring of communications, etc.

Correct.

Recall all of the businesses from coast to coast that boarded up their windows prior to election day to prevent Leftist riots from doing as much damage as they had in the summer.

The feds and local police KNEW of plans by militant Leftists to rise up if Biden was behind after election day.

There was no need to board up windows etc on inauguration day etc.

Now that Leftists are again staging insurgencies in Portland it is considered a local matter only.

Their DNC BROWNSHIRTS brigrade is still militant and still active and the Ostrich media is buried its head in the sand.

As usual, what was actually said has nothing to do with what was “reported”.

I blame all the crazy NAZI talk by the media and dems directly at the feet of groups like the ADL (B’nai Brith Anti-Defamation League.)

Over the years, the ADL has gone from a group that through light on anti-sematism and morphed into a bunch of DNC and leftist stooges.

The fact that never ONCE did they condemn anyone calling Conservatives, nor President Trump, “NAZIS” means that they were directly responsible for allowing that term to be mainstreamed.

So it allowed Antifa and BLM to then claim their violent attacks were “justified,” since it’s OK to “kill NAZIs.”

Actually, there are some very serious parallels between early 1930s Germany and the demands that people not be allowed to work, and calls by media and politicians that President Trump supporters need to be rounded up and put into “re-education camps.” Never mind the government/big-business integration that creates a fascist economy, state-sponsored media that hides criminal evidence during political campaigns and propaganda industry in “big tech” that would be Goebbles’ wet-dream.

History has taught me that when someone threatens you, it’s prudent to believe them and prepare for the worst.

You’re right about that. If you look at poltically-engineered crimes against humanity, Hitler is probably #3 in the world’s worst mass murderers.

#2 being Stalin, with the top mass-murderer in recorded history being Mao. And China continues in that direction today.
