I know so mаny аmаzing pаtriots in the greаt stаte of Texаs, аnd I love Texаs, thаt hаve been wаiting аnd аre willing for this moment. Deputize а citizen force, put them on the border, give them hаndcuffs, get it done. Sure thаt’s drаmаtic. You know whаt’s drаmаtic? The invаsion of the country. We’re going to tаlk more аbout thаt, we’re going to tаlk аbout how the other side hаs openly аdmitted thаt this is аbout bringing in voters thаt they wаnt аnd thаt they like аnd honestly, diminishing аnd decreаsing white demogrаphics in Americа. We’re going to sаy thаt pаrt out loud, аs so mаny people in the corporаte mediа аre аfrаid to tаlk аbout it.

I should probably be concerned about the increasingly-brazen descent into far right politics America is going through as capitalism further decays and its defenders look to fascism. But I’m honestly only mildly shocked and even a bit apathetic about it at this point. :shrug-outta-hecks:
Yeah, Charlie---to his credit and unlike, say, Michael Tracey---realizes that he's getting too old to do the "looney left colleges" routine anymore and he's chosen to replace that with outright white nationalism! Been going this way for months now.

Still would love to see one of these "left" colleges in person and I'm not talking about "left" as in we're tolerate of people, I mean left as in we need a protracted people's war. But I'm getting ahead of myself because americans confuse liberalism with leftism because they're politically incoherent.

Nobody goes to college because they're looking to fight a war.
That said, by the time they've graduated, more than a few have been radicalized by the absurdity of life outside the suburban bubble.
What's mindblowing is that conservatives have been handed the best possible propaganda... by Democrats
Militarization of police, stop and frisk, the drug war, civil asset forfeiture, school-to-prison pipeline, income inequality in Democrat-controlled cities
But instead of leveraging that in a meaningful way, they fall back on fear of not being on top of the hierarchy; even black conservatives only go so far as "rich Democrats look down on you, vote Republican" and wonder why they aren't gaining fans that aren't white
It's like conservatives would rather live in perpetual existential dread than live in a more right-wing world where some of their leaders are identifiably and unashamedly black
The thing is, people might be uninformed but they're not so uninformed they dont understand some basic differences between R and D. They implicitly know all that stuff you talked about Democratic-run cities, that the Republican solution is to be even more awful. More police militarization than the democrats. More prisons. Going harder on drugs. Schools are bad in your city? The Republicans want to just get rid of them and give you a voucher for your kid to get indoctrinated in the local Catholic school.
Republicans tried what you're suggesting in the CA recall and it blew up in their faces. "Hey Newsom sucks right? You should get rid of him! What have you got to lose?" Except I think most voters knew the stuff that they didn't like Newsom for, Elder would be even worse.
Who has a link to that game where you have to guess if this is an unedited or edited picture of how small Charlie kirks face is?
I found it lmao

i want to see churlie kork in a plate carrier sweating his lily-white ass off on the border, terrified of unarmed haitians under a bridge
I'm sure he'll swing down to the Valley for a few photo ops from the back seat of a Technical.
leaving aside the fascism, having a bunch of dumbass untrained chuds actually trying to do law enforcement on the border is probably a great plan for an international incident when they accidentally invade Mexico
having a bunch of dumbass untrained chuds actually trying to do law enforcement
That's just normal Texas law enforcement. Nobody actually solves crimes down here. They just do SWAT raids looking for weed and whip you from horseback.
Reminds me of the time the US almost invaded Mexico but decided not too because they were too racist.
In the Mexican American war the US took everything from Texas to California, but decided to not go past that because they didn’t want that many brown people becoming American citizens
New Mexico wasn't allowed to be a state until the white people outnumbered the indigenous and Mexican. It had the population requirement immediately and in theory the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo ensured that all Mexican citizens who remained in the annexed territory would be granted full US citizenship. Mexican citizenship applied to all people's regardless of race, so the Southwest courts had some legal grey areas for decades to avoid giving brown New Mexicans rights to property and citizenship.
Also worth pointing out the Texas Independence War was sparked by white Anglo-American land owners refusing to adhere to Mexican law, which included them being obligated to free their slaves. The US supported them and eventually incorporated Texas as a slave state. Texas then stripped Tejanos of power for racial reasons (despite them helping in the war) and gave an ultimatum to free blacks to either leave the state or risk enslavement.
I wish Texan Founding Myth got the same attention and scrutiny that the Lost Cause of the South has been finally getting.

That's exactly what I mean, though. Even after I (thought I) shed a lot of internalized American exceptionalism/chauvinism, it still took me a long while to completely burn out the notion of America being somehow immune to fascism through seeing repeated examples and diving into actual theory (including Settlers). Hence why I just feel a bit resigned and jaded about all this, whereas I would have been more alarmed even a year ago. Maybe it's me "knowing better" or maybe it's just coping.
That said, I don't see an outright fascist takeover likely, since you need the established capitalist or ruling class to be on board with it for that to happen, as history has shown. It's not impossible, but it's still in hypothetical territory until we see an actually-relevant leftist party, and the closest thing to that we have ATM is the DSA.
I wanna join a border mitia and then just steal their gear and leave.
Infiltrate the border militia, steal their gear, pour a liter of Soda in the gas tanks, publish their personal info, head to brunch.
publish their personal info
Just need to get invited to their private Facebook groups where they joke about running over immigrants
The phrase "mask off" is overused, but this is a legit example of it. In the US, I am 100% certain there's a very large percentage of white folks who feel this way, it's just not talked about very openly. There's a significant amount of angst over no longer being a "white" country. Sure they have their suburban enclaves but even the white folks know demographics are turning against them. There will be dog whistles and whatnot even around other white folks. But if you get a group of reactionary white folks (probably the majority) together and they know each other, this topic comes up a lot.
American racism is also so intertwined with capitalism they're almost inseparable. It provides the perfect cover for racist and chauvinistic impulses because "Nobody should get handouts, if they worked harder they'd be more successful."
They don’t think “I’m better than POC”, rather, they think “I have to make sure POC can’t get access to education, health care, land, jobs, stability, etc. or they’ll eventually overtake me and my kind”
I'm not even sure most of them think that far. They just see the results of previous centuries of white supremacy, beaten down and desperate people, and think "bad people don't deserve things"
That's what I'm thinking. Charlie Kirk most likely doesn't believe in anything but he knows damn well what he's doing by signaling this to his audience, which are in all likelihood pretty receptive to this, being "middle" class suburbanites and petty-bougies, and therefore mostly white. Demagogues like him have been feeling emboldened with this tactic and seeing how far they can press white and petti-bourgeois anxiety for their paycheck, and it's only getting closer and closer to outright stealing from /pol/ threads.
The "funny" thing is that it's not like "demographic replacement" necessarily threatens their power and privilege. You have obvious examples like South Africa but also the entirety of Latin America where white/white-mixed people are vastly overrepresented in the highest political and economic positions whereas Mixed/indigenous and African people are the opposite, and statistics reflect that. It's just that when you have a right wing propaganda apparatus (and even supposedly "left-leaning" media outlets and Hollywood) that constantly reinforces the yankees' notions of Latin America being entirely filled by run-down slums populated by nameless brown hordes with nary a white person or, gasp, a "good neighborhood" in sight, they start to internalize that.
