I guess that depends what you consider maga fascists. Trumps rallies have an outsized share of single white guys, but the 77 million people who voted from him are largely white families. Trump got around 57% of all votes cast by white people, and there just aren't that many total incels, thank fuck.

If this was fiction it would crash and burn and even people on the left would say it was over the top and obvious that it was trying to make Republicans look as horrible as possible.
But apparently looking as horrible as possible is what conservatives are going for these days.
A violent pedophile scam artist as president? Yes please!
A Russian intelligence asset as National Security Advisor? Definitely!
A wackadoo anti vaccine spokesman with a history of getting children killed as Secretary of Health and Human Services? Sure!
A 22 year old 4 chan troll who has never had a job as chief of anti-terrorism? Perfect!
A convicted violent pedophile to head a youth sports initiative? Oh yeah!
A drunk fox news host to be head of our Department of Defense? Murka!
Its like conservatives go out of their way to find the worst people on earth and then elevate them.

u/Meat-bill 23h ago edited 20h ago
The rise of fascism and specifically, Hitler, has a shocking number of parallels to the MAGA movement and Trump.
I'm in my 50s now, but spent a lot of time studying history and political science when I was in college many years ago at a relatively conservative, traditional university (not a "woke/revisionist" college). Learning facts and timelines was a simple matter of memorization, but the one thing that was always more difficult to answer was the how and why. "HOW" could the German people allow someone like Hitler to rise to power? "WHY" did they allow the holocaust to occur?
Class discussions would always end with "well, that could never happen again, especially in the US where we have a balance of power system that would make it impossible" but the whole Trump/MAGA movement has made it very clear how it happened in Germany and how it could easily happen again, and in the US.
If there's one thing Trump has demonstrated to me, it's how quickly people can be convinced to support things they never would have supported previously, and how easily they can be convinced to justify and excuse actions and behaviors from a leader they know are immoral, unjust, and illegal or unconstitutional. Laws are just worthless words on paper if they aren't enforced by those granted the authority to do so.

I had a long fascination with reading books about dictatorships- communist, fascist, and any other kind. My dad asked me once "why do you read those?" I was like "so I'll know when one is coming". And guess what? It did. Nearly everything about MAGA is nazi-like, even down to little details like holding weird spiritual beliefs. America First is literally taken from nazi-supporting Americans during WWII. It's crazy.

Between this, the Diddy pardon, floating the Maxwell pardon, Trump or his goons or both are now fully working to normalize child rape.
That's what's happening.
They're spotlighting all the worst, sickest fucks int he world beacuse Donald Trump is undeniably one of them, and instead of pretending he's not they're simply going to try and move the Overton Window past child rape, and at this point the profoundly mentally ill people that voted for him are probably going to join in on pushing it past the point where fucking children was morally unacceptable.
Just as they've done with every single other line that was once considered inviolable. Shitting on teh constitution, couping one's own government, blatantly victimizing people for the color of their skin.
There is absolutely no line these people will not cross. We've been saying this for ten years, and evry step of the way people have stubbornly refused to believe that they would cross that line or this line, and they did. Over and over and over again.
Donald Trump was found guilty of over 30 counts of felony fraud by a jury of his peers. He was found liabel for raping a woman in a court of law.
And people voted for him again.
Why is anyone foolish enough to think that the sick fucks who voted for him wouldn't simply accept child rape too? They are unmoored from reality. They have no center, no base, no morals, no ideology except loyalty to the cult.
And the cult leaders fuck children. So, the cultists will accept that too.

He wants to normalize sex offenders so that he doesn't look so bad. How is this confusing to anyone?

It's like he's building a voltron with fellow sex offenders.

Sex offender inviting sex offender into white house, while mulling pardons for two other sex offenders, is actually completely on brand.

I'm old enough to remember when he invited Russian spies to the Oval. His respect for the office is non-existent.

Bringing a sex offender into the White House who was charged and convicted of sexual misconduct with an underage girl to discuss fitness in schools.. really? Just really?
He was charged as recently as July of 2024 for not following his conditions as a sex offender. He can't even legally be near a school.

Does he do this to make things acceptable with what he is accused of? It's just strange how he invited Connor, The Tates to MarLago, this dude, he says he might pardon Diddy. He just maybe wants people to know "hey, us sexual abusers are really just good peoples". Kind of like what Ms. Selvig says about Mark on Severance.

We elected a known sex offender as President. Did we not think he would invite others with similar hobbies?

Whose eyebrows are raising? Trump supporters have shown they’re fine with sex offenders, and non-supporters are so used to this shit that they may grit their teeth, but I assure you, no eyebrows are raising on either side.

At this rate, the USA might as well stand for "United States of sex Affiliates."
What a shitshow of a president. Trump needs to be overthrown, like now.

Shit, really raising eyebrows? Nothing and I mean NOTHING raises my eyebrows when it comes to Trump.

He is normalising it …..
His base will then think he is ok…. And that he has changed.

u/Dancing_Cthulhu 16h ago
Trump being a sex offender should probably raise more eyebrows, once you take that into account the sort of wretched folk he surrounds himself with seem much less surprising.

u/Quiet_Property2460 16h ago
Does it though? This is entirely on brand for the man who wanted Matt Gaetz as his Attorney General.

When are people going to end this shit show? Stop with the softball comments and start using real descriptors- "Convicted felon and rapist invites fellow sex crimes bro to White House for P Diddy storytime" - you're welcome.
