If you read about the history of the Russian and Chinese communist revolutions this is the exact sort of shit the leaders of those movement spouted.
Before climbing over top the pile of bodies to live in a palace while everyone else starved from their insane stupid policies.

In spirit, content and intent, this was really no different to a Klan rally.
The exception being the wholesale absence of outrage in mainstream media.
This period of history will be an indictment on those standing silent, as much as the monster himself.

Dictatorships people from elsewhere coming in and pointing out how shitty things are; doesn't serve a totalitarian government.
Thing is the whole planet knows all about the shit Trump is making out of America so a bit pointless in this case.
Think it's they can be assholes about it so they are.

When Biden was President, Trump never said a mumbling word about his health and was enraged that @jaketapper.bsky.social and others dared suggest it an issue for media speculation.

Musk promoting a post of the EU flag turning into the Nazi flag
The EU was created in by people who lived through WWII and saw political and economic integration as a means to bringing peace and stability to the continent.
It is being opposed by Putin, Musk and the others who support Neo Nazis in Europe.

They really want Farage to bring fascism to England and to be fair Starmer and the other fascist enabling party seems keen on it too.
So Greens, probably a good idea to vote for them.

Even if that were a thing, and not, obviously, some never grew out of them and want to bring Hitlerโs policies back is the problem.

Engaging with ICE and CBP at all when you're alone is high-risk, whether or not you're a citizen.
Whenever possible, keep some distance and draw a crowd. ICE and CBP look for isolated and vulnerable targets. The more civilians you have with you, the less likely they are to attack.

Trump says his farm bailout 'would not be possible without tariffs.' His critics agree.
5 hours ago
By Ben Werschkul
The article goes on to say because the tariffs are what made them necessary but being snarky ironic in a headline isn't helpful, people reading that can come away with another idea.
How odd no editor considered that.
