Breaking News, White Nationalist Likes Trump

In other news, water has been found to be remarkably damp, according to scientists from Well-Duh Laboratories.

Yes but who funded this research? I bet NoShit Sherlock was behind it..

Read all about it in this month's issue of DUH.

A lot of free speech "alphas" sure seem to want to be ruled.

The true secret to (Alpha Males) is each and every one wants to be a subbie Omega to an even alphaer male.

Authoritarians literally believe that the only way to run things is to put a bully in charge of them. Not only don't they believe in democracy or cooperation, they don't believe in free speech or markets either.

(Markets are acceptable to an authoritarian only insofar as the bully in charge and his buddies are permitted to lie to, cheat, and steal from other market participants. It is strictly forbidden for other market participants to voluntarily organize to exclude the bully. Any form of organization that does not have a bully in charge of it is illicit to the authoritarian mindset.)

Yeah the real “alpha” types are more afraid of steamrolling people than coming off as weak. They know there’s nothing wrong with submissive and vulnerable folks.

They embrace the darkness believing that they will escape their fate, little knowing that they will merely be disposed of LAST

Given the kind of infighting for power often seen in authoritarian countries, even that isn't necessarily true

It's hilarious. They act all macho but what they really want is to be dominated by a man.

"Forget the Constitution" -- Party of the Constitution voter.

Absolutely wild that people feel comfortable saying that. What a shit show the right has become.

On Reddit, anyway, on conservative safe spaces with flair you'll often see people self identifying as monarchists. It's a nice way of saying "fascist dictatorship". The leader would of course be psychologically identical to them in perpetuity, just because.

Nothing in the dark that wasn’t in the light my friend. It’s that the masks fell away and the limiters have be removed

At one time the far far right were powerless because that all thought they were alone. Trump helped them come out, find each other, join forces, and get a huge morale boost from the knowledge that they're not alone.

We got a inkling of this when a former President stated that dictatorship was cool as long as they were DICTATING IT

"No More Kings"

Thought everybody learned that as kids...

you know, it was only Schoolhouse Rock holding this Republic together from the very beginning

I'd say we need to bring back Schoolhouse Rock, but we need to bring back Saturday Morning Cartoons first. :)

Can we have Batman: the Animated Series, and Freakazoid? What about Bullwinkle?

Batman and Freakazoid were both after school shows, not sure anyone does those anymore either. Tiny Toons, Animaniacs. :(

White nationalists love Trump a lot, not a shock.

Oh fuck I didn't realize we were declaring today. I hereby declare myself king of kings, all other kings are now subject to my rule, thanks.

The fuck is wrong with these people?

He's a grifter. He doesn't believe anything he's saying, he's just like the guy he's pledging allegiance to. He'll collect in some way, whether it is in royalties from views, speaking engagements, or whatever. He's playing a character.

It doesn't excuse him or his bullshit. But guaranteed this is a grift on the manipulated masses.

They spout moronic shit and are then handsomely rewarded by having articles written about them. Then they monetize the hate they spew.

Jesus these people are somehow navigating cognitive dissonance like it was the final frontier

1000% these people wishing for a king have a "don't tread on me" flag.

Bitch, is Emperor Norton (Emperor of the United States and Protector of Mexico) a joke to you?

It just shows how dumb they are, even if you wanted a king, why would you pick that fat loser lol

You idiots can't even find a corrupt piece of shit that is good at their job

why would you pick that fat loser

the answer to this has alway been "because no matter how badly he fucks everything up, he'll never get in the way of them being white christian nationalist terrorists"

I mean not to hype them up but we are lucky it was his dumb ass instead of cruz or anyone else who knows how to work the system that is also a racist racist piece of shit

Trump was real bad but it could have been much much worse

His stupidness was his draw, though. It's literally critical to his success that he was too stupid to work the system. Every time he said the quiet part out loud and violated the right's commitment to cryptofascism (tw: just tons of open hate speech and racial slurs) most of us didn't care, a few of us saw what was happening and were duly upset and enraged, but a significant portion of the population consisting of exasperated racists who were sick of getting no open support said "Finally..."

It's repetitive to say, but also fascist and racist.

The same White Nationalists who want to defend "freedom" and our "democracy" also have no problem appointing a king of America.

oof

He makes money off this behavior. Ignore. It's the only thing these people can't stand, including Trump.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Far-right activist Nick Fuentes voiced his support for Donald Trump by swearing allegiance to the former president in a video circulating on social media.

Trump, who surrendered at Atlanta's Fulton County Jail on Thursday after being indicted on 13 counts over allegations that he broke the law attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election result in Georgia, has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing, describing the case against him as a politically motivated witch hunt.

Fuentes—described by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a white nationalist livestreamer who advocates pulling the Republican Party further to the extreme far-right end of the political spectrum—has had a rocky relationship with Trump.

Prior to November 2022, Fuentes was a vocal MAGA supporter who often spoke in favor of Trump and has criticized mainstream Republicans.

The Holocaust denier attended a dinner at Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate in November with rapper Kanye West, now known as Ye, along with two other men.

And I swear allegiance to God and Jesus Christ," Fuentes said in a video that was later shared to X, formerly Twitter, by account Right Wing Watch.

We don't have kings, you kill-billy freak. If you want a dictatorship, move to a third-world country where you belong.

I somewhat get people thinking having a good king is better than a bunch of quibling politicians, but kings weren't all powerful and the quibling politicians in their day were still the ones that actually ran the show.

And if you're going to chose a king, why chose orange painted generic loudmouth manchild number 5322.

Well, he does seem like he’s potentially inbred, so maybe he should be king?

Who cares. They've been saying this shit for years at this point

In other news, sky still blue...for now.

I find solace in the fact that 50 cents out of every dollar of his campaign money is being spent on legal fees at the moment. His main PAC had a balance of over 100 million and sank to under 5 million. This was all prior to the George charges, which I imagine is going to radically increase his legal exposure.

These people are systematically transferring hundreds of millions to the ultimate con man.

In other dumb news Stain is declared a hero by seemingly half of Lemmy. 🙄
