‘We Didn’t Get All The Way There On Jan 6’: Trump Booster Pledges to End Democracy in CPAC Rant as Bannon Cheers On

“Welcome to the end of democracy!” Posobiec declared. “We’re here to overthrow it completely. We didn’t get all the way there on January 6th, but we will endeavor to get rid of it and replace it with this right here,” he said, holding his fist in the air. “That’s right, because all glory is not to government, all glory to God.”
Steve Bannon, former White House adviser, is heard in the background exclaiming, “All right! Amen!”
All Republicans are perfectly happy with the idea of having a (Christo-)fascist dictatorship in power in the U.S. . All that they care about is that the dictatorship rewards them with money and power. I know Republicans like this, people you might think were just ordinary folks, and they're masters of telling themselves stories to justify their violence and thievery and masters at not seeing anything that might cause cognitive dissonance, to the extent that they're capable of that at all.
Line them all up against the wall and end them.
Lock their supporters up for life as enemies of the state.
Full stop.
This is tankie talk. You are being a tankie. We'll never win the center of the political spectrum if we try to enforce the law against these freaks. That would be too divisive.
No, instead, we should focus our energy on prosecuting trans teenagers and brutalizing climate refugees at the border.
You know. Bipartisanship.
You are the same as them, those actions will only be used to justify escalating retaliation.
It's definitely not the same. You can give no quarter to fascist ideology. It inevitably (by design) poisons all legitimate political discourse. It's insidious and it grows like a cancer until it destroys the host and spreads its poison like a virus to the rest of the world.
Fascism needs to be stamped out with prejudice. I don't personally like that it's the case, but we're already seeing what happens when you allow it to get even the slightest hold.
These people are extremely dangerous to the world order, and anyone who values free thought should be absolutely terrified of them.
