I made that exact mistake a couple weeks ago, and it was just like you say. Biggs doesn't have nearly as many of those bitter ones, either.

No. It's another form of government that has its own issues, but not all authoritarian regimes are fascist.

On the other hand, neo-feudalists are reactionaries because they want to return society to a mythical past where a heirarchy of elites rules over their subjects. Fascism, neo-feudalism, and conservatism are all subsets of reactionary ideology, but they are not the same thing.

I agree that that is what society and government should be for.

Reactionaries, on the other hand, have a completely different set of values that is incompatible with a free society. They see the role of government as instituting a heirarchy with themselves at the top.

The recent attacks on DEI are a clear example of their insistence on hierarchies with the "proper" people sorted to the top. They believe that all of society's problems are due to leftists upsetting the pyramid.

They don't think they'll need protection, because the government works for them, since they imagine themselves at the top.

Video of the piggies in action.

Love how she berated them the whole time, you know that pissed them off so much.

The Card Says Moops is a great video that illustrates this principle.

Don't forget the conspiracy sticker covered diesels rolling coal with truck nutz.

Reactionaries just think the country belongs to them alone.

It really is that simple; "truth" to them is just whatever gets them closer to their goal of completely subjegating the people they hate, which is everyone who rejects their cultural hegemony.

It's because cops hate transparency.

It's like asking a rabid meth-wolf to wear a bell so the sheep can hear it coming.

They updated it in September:

Family Sharing enables you to play games from other family members' libraries, even if they are online playing another game. If your family library has multiple copies of a game, multiple members of the family can play that game at the same time. For a more detailed look at how Family Sharing works, see the FAQ below.

And he clearly thought he could get away with it despite the driver not being a threat in any way.

“Reilly told the victim to get off his property, before firing multiple shots at the victim as he attempted to leave in his vehicle, striking the victim once in the back, causing serious physical injuries,” state police said.

The 48 year old, who is also a federally licensed firearms dealer, was remanded to the Orange County Jail in lieu of $250,000 cash, $500,000 bond, or $750,000 partially secured bond, according to police. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for May 9 in the Town of Chester Court.

Sounds like this guy had been looking for an excuse to use his toys. Typical Republican: either scared of their own shadow or indifferent to the grievous damage they inflict on others.

Found his party affiliation in another article, not that it's any surprise.

Reilly, a Republican, has been Chester’s highway superintendent since 2021. He was re-elected to full four-year term in 2023. He is also a federally licensed firearms dealer.

It left me disgusted with the US's long flirtation with fascism yet hopeful that we can overcome it.

I'd like her to do another season about the business plot.

The Ultra podcast has two seasons and goes in-depth into previous attempts by fascists at taking over the US government.

Sitting members of Congress aiding and abetting a plot to overthrow the government. Insurrectionists criminally charged with plotting to end American democracy for good. Justice Department prosecutors under crushing political pressure. Rachel Maddow Presents: Ultra is the all-but-forgotten true story of good, old-fashioned American extremism getting supercharged by proximity to power.

When extremist elected officials get caught plotting against America with the violent ultra right, this is the story of the lengths they will go to… to cover their tracks.

Nazis are a subset of fascists, which itself is a subset of reactionary ideology.

A reactionary is a person who wants to reverse political changes and seeks to restore society to a state believed to have existed before.

Fascists are so incredibly fragile.

They've written lie after lie about Omar and then think they're entitled to answers that they'll twist into more bullshit?

"Fuck off" is exactly what the Daily Caller has earned; they don't deserve the dignity of being treated like serious journalists.

"Right wing reporter" is code for "bigoted concern troll," and she knows that feeding the trolls just entices them.

I think that bad CGA palette comes from quick & dirty VGA conversions. This was probably near enough to the changeover to EGA that it was worth doing a good job because there were still quite a few people still using CGA.

Just a guess though.

Here are some from inside Monolith Burger, too:

When MAGA made sexual harassment great again.

Collard greens and bacon.

This is a perfect recipe, but I just fry up some bacon instead of using a turkey leg (though I'm sure that would be great too).
