Seems like the job of the education department should be telling people about the history of fascism, and warning us when our country is currently headed down a fascist path .
Edit: oh, it’s not a documentary or an essay. It was a very short video meme on X with a very short quote from Churchill taken out of context, and it seems they didn’t know that it was about Hitler. Then they deleted it when people told them they were comparing Trump to Hitler.
I would certainly approve of the department of education funding a full length documentary video that analyzed all the ways that Trump’s policies resemble Hitler’s. Consider, for example, the “warning signs of fascism” posted at the end of the Holocaust museum. I think the majority of the boxes have been ticked by Trump.
Yeah he’s ticking all of the boxes, but he’s doing it in crayon. That makes people think it’s not a big deal, but it really is.
Americans have gotten used to fascism and they mostly like it. This has opened the door for someone more competent to step in and do things even more horrible things than Trump has done.
Lmao. More hate for the American people. Tbh it’s really demoralizing how no one can separate governments from the people.
Trump, like Hitler is a grifter who weaponizes ignorance and fear. He has fooled many Americans yes, but that doesn’t mean we support fascism. Some do, obviously, but nowhere near “most”
Trump is the symptom, not the cause of the problems in American culture. You just point to Trump and say “I don’t support that guy” and think when he’s gone everything will be fine. You’re not dealing with your society becoming fascist because you refuse to even think about it.
When the next fascist demagogue comes along you will support him if he hates the same people you hate.
When we say American, we don’t mean every single American. We speak of overall societal tendencies.
And yes, you live in a society. You are part of it. I’m sure you know, but the first step to overcoming a problem is to identify it.
Americans are like fish who don’t know what water is.
Two thirds of American voters either voted for or Trump or didn’t bother to vote at all. So about a third of the population wants fascism, and another third of the population is fine with it happening.
You’re thinking it’s all about Trump, but another more competent fascist could take his place and tell people that he didn’t like some of the things Trump did, but he hates the same scapegoats Trump hated (and maybe add a few more to the list) and easily win an election.
It’s really the Democrats most Americans hate. You now have Democrats having to say that they hate Democrats too to try to get people to vote for them. Americans have been trained to hate the political opposition to fascism, look at all the “Chuck Schumer only writes letters WTF” memes. it’s not just the elderly that have been duped, most young people are in some radical anti-liberal group or another.
You’re excuses for not doing what you can to oppose fascism. Nobody cares about the rationalizations of the people that do nothing when facing fascism.
When it’s all said and done, social media will be considered just a tool fascists used to promote complacency to the stupid. Whatever you post on social media will just be put into that bucket, no one will think you were being bold because you posted some lame excuses on social media.
Why are we being critical of this?

Nah most Americans hate Trump.
And most US Americans hate Trump too.
He’s literally never had the majority of either population behind him.
Two thirds of American voters either voted for or Trump or didn’t bother to vote at all. So about a third of the population wants fascism, and another third of the population is fine with it happening.

The US isn’t a democracy.
You can’t blame voters when they’re being disenfranchised and there’s no progressive candidate on the ballot.
