Pure, uncut #fascism is totally mainstream in today’s #GOP.

“The Colorado Republican Party marked the start of Pride Month with a mass email attacking “godless groomers” and a social media post calling for the burning of all Pride flags.”

Viktor Orbán’s pet university is all about propaganda – I know, I was there by Bence Szechenyi.

MCC open outpost in .

Mathias Corvinus Collegium (MCC), the right-wing aka fascist Hungarian educational institution funded by Viktor Orbán’s rightwing government, has been expanding internationally. It opened a centre in , bought a university in and has plans for new branches in other western European cities, including London.

Its' views are closely aligned with fascist Orbán, and it funds academics who disseminate Orbán’s positions to extend his influence across Europe and beyond.

MCC has tremendous financial backing, receiving more than £1.3bn in Hungarian state funding in 2020. MCC offers can be hard to turn down. It provides funding, scholarships, housing, invitations to lavish dinners, open-bar parties, trips abroad & more $$

News: Per the NPR report, republican liars destroyed a man and his family's life by falsely accusing him of illegally voting in Georgia. D'Souza publisher was forced to admit the 2000 Mules is based on LIES.

Republican disinformation trolls Dinesh D’Souza, True the Vote — are defendants that falsely accused a citizen of “ballot fraud” in their propaganda film and book “2000 Mules.” The plaintiff alleges that “2000 Mules,” which espouses disinformation and lies. Republican liars, spewing LIES attacked innocent Americans. D'Souza tried to steal our election. These fascist lying liars never stop lying.

Listening to The PoliticsGirl Podcast (Christian Jesus v. Trump Jesus: A Conversation with the New Evangelicals’ Tim Whitaker): https://www.podtrac.com/pts/redirect.mp3/pdst.fm/e/chrt.fm/track/537745/pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/1058/traffic.megaphone.fm/MTH4728754758.mp3?updated=1717460630

Christian Nationalism is a giant threat to our country. A danger to women, to minorities, to the marginalized and to democracy itself. While these white, Christian nationalists believe they’re saving the country from heathenism, what they’re really offering is a theocracy of top down control with themselves at the top. We must see this threat for what it is, and that starts with understanding. Tim Whitaker is the founder of the New Evangelicals, an inclusive, Jesus-centered community that holds space for those marginalized by the evangelical church and advocates for systemic change. Raised deep in the evangelical world – Tim had a crisis of faith watching his church leaders embrace a man who was so antithetical to what he had been taught to believe. He now holds the toxic churches and their leaders accountable, while still offering a home of faith to his fellow Christians. Please join us for this incredibly engaging conversation.

Dying of Whiteness (Boston Review)
Jonathan M. Metzl, 2019

"Trevor voiced a literal willingness to die for his place in this hierarchy, rather than participate in a system that might put him on the same plane as immigrants or racial minorities."

"a dominant strain of the electorate voted in politicians whose platforms of American greatness were built on embodied forms of demise."

It looks like parts of the original thread are broken, but the TLDR here is: Do you know the source of the quote:

"You don’t fight fascism because you are going to win, you fight fascism because it is fascism."
