No such thing. If you still identify as a Republican, you're either a fascist or a fascist-enabler. Neither is a moderate.
statements like this are exactly how people like him get elected. When you call all of us Nazis, calling an actual Nazi what he is means nothing.
This is what you sound like:
When you cry wolf, no one believes you when there is a wolf
Works the other way around too: if you keep calling wolves lambs, people are going to stop believing you too.
I’m sure as fuck not a white supremacist
You just vote for white supremacists and/or people who actively defend white supremacists and then act like that's a thing psychologically healthy people do.
Cool. So you’re calling me a nazi because of association with people I neither support nor associate with. Wanna know what that does? It convinces me to never associate with you. It also means that when you call anyone else a nazi, I will straight up ignore you. Way to be part of the problem, you are actively enabling nazis by harboring and covering them. Just what I would expect from a standard bigot.
Imagine if you cared half as much about the Nazis in your party as you do about them being called Nazis.
Oh, I absolutely do care which is why I’m ecstatic that this guy got successfully recalled. It’s just bullshit that he got that far and people crying wolf nazi is how he did.
Ah yes, the radical left are the ones keeping you from cleaning your party out.
Tell me: how many Confederate flags is too many for a political rally?
The worst parts of Lemmy show up when one doesn't fall lockstep into whatever flavor of far-left naviete is being pushed down-thread.
I don't agree with everything you posted above but the name calling you were handed in response to an attempt at earnest conversation is an excellent window into the grade school maturity of those very elements.
I used to be more centrist but the left has actively forced me to the right. I grew up in MA and my conservative friends all think I’m liberal. I just personally realize in not left because of people like this. I prefer the party that is kind to me on the street. Being a liberal in Enid is far easier and more comfortable than being a centrist in Seattle. Fascism is a hell of a drug and Seattle loves its drugs.
I grew up in a conservative stronghold and still live adjacent to several of them. Separating ideas from people is a maturing point and one that I hope you and your detractors aspire to.
The attribution in this space is off the charts.
So you’re calling me a nazi
Nope. I specifically said "white supremacist or enabler of white supremacists", which is accurate for every Republican.
While all nazis are white supremacists, not all white supremacists are nazis. Nazism is a specific kind of white supremacist ideology that isn't identical to the brand of white supremacist fascism currently ruling the GOP.
people I neither support nor associate with
Calling yourself a Republican is as textbook "supporting or associating with" the Republican Party as it gets and the Republican Party is a white supremacist fascist party. Ergo, you're either lying or don't know what the words you're using mean. Probably a bit of both, as is standard for the Trump cult.
It convinces me to never associate with you
Don't threaten me with the lack of an awful time 😄
it also means that when you call anyone else a nazi, I will straight up ignore you
Well it's not like you paid that close attention the first time around, what with changing what words I used 🙄
you are actively enabling nazis by harboring and covering them
Nope, that would be you and the rest of your buddies in the fascist party pretending that you're just "moderate conservatives" that in no way associate with fascists by voting for a fascist party and identifying as being part of a fascist party.
Just what I would expect from a standard bigot.
More standard GOP projection 🙄
I just want to say I’m loving your comments ITT. Very well-written and a pleasure to read!
Thanks, I appreciate it! 🫶
So you’re an intolerant extremist that lumps any and everyone that doesn’t agree 100% with you into a broad category that you dehumanize and violently oppose by all means necessary to publicly shame them into compliance. Got it, you’re literally a textbook fascist. Add in your deliberate harboring of white supremacists by purposefully giving them cover to hide.
I don’t associate with radical fascists. Have a good life.
"No u" is always the way Republicans end this conversation, because they can't be bothered to confront the white supremicists in their party.
They exclusively punch left.
So you’re an intolerant extremist
Nope, that's the people of theparty you're defending
lumps any and everyone that doesn’t agree 100% with you into a broad category that you dehumanize and violently oppose by all means necessary to publicly shame them into compliance

Again, still you. Doesn't it hurt your brain to project that much?
I don’t associate with radical fascists
Yeah you do. Or were you lying about being a Republican?
What fun churlishness, now let's do you:
Ah yes. It's other people's fault that a person is a Nazi.
What a smart comic!
It's almost as if my point was the laziness of a broad brush and the inability to have a conversation without falling back to antics deserving of the playground.
Well that's not the point of the comic, so that was a massive failure.
Subtext is hard, but I do believe you can learn to find it.
Unfortunately, I have little doubt that you'll continue giving cover to fascists in the name of enlightened centrism.

Still the Republican party.
Nope, that's still the Republican party, who embody ALL of the 14 common features of fascism
Again, still you. Doesn't it hurt your brain to project that much?
Yeah you do. Or were you lying about being a Republican?

I’m sorry, the card says “moops.”
Oh no, please don't hit me with your broad brush of righteousness and name calling... Whatever will I do?
Continue to push your false equivalency, obviously.
Every accusation is a confession, no?
So when you said I was self-righteous and calling you names...
...I replied below the name-calling. Clever, right?
Now you only need to identify the purported false equivalency to match suit.
I'm not going to do a little dance for you.
Oh no, how many Nazis did I just make there?!
