Nationalism is the belief that your country is inherently superior to all others, and generally leads to a person being unable to identify or acknowledge any flaws in their nation; past, present, or future. If that sounds familiar, it should, because racists have the same superiority complex in connection to race, almost always their own. So it follows that racists become nationalists, and nationalists become racists, it's an easy jump to make. Assuming one doesn't break the cycle of those psychological pitfalls, anyway, and a lot of people are incapable of managing to do that by themselves.
it doesnt have to be based on nationalism, it can be just about any ideology, Its based on we/I am better than you because, next step we/I dehumanize those that aren't x. It can be based on class, race, culture, religion, or anything else people can make up.

Really?



First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
—Martin Niemöller

No, socialists didn't support Hitler. Hitler claimed he was a socialist. But his actions weren't that. He wouldn't target them first if he was pro socialists.
This also means that no, Hitler was pro corporation since he wasn't pro union.



I'm pretty damn sure that Hitler takes the cake on that one. But regardless, that's unessary since both Mussolini and Hitler are cut from the same cloth.
FFS, It's even more blatant. Benito Mussolini's party was
"Republican Fascist party"
Are you trying to make your case more difficult?
Its hard to make a case when people are too ignorant to even understand what they are discussing. Study Gaddafi for another example of a fascist.

:angry: FUQ YOU tRuMp SUPPORTERS !

THEY DID FIND NATIONAL SECURITY FILES IN HIS HOME! FILES HE WAS NOT ENTITLED TO HAVE ! :angry:

So stop it you bunch of KARENS and DARRENS ! :shit:
When it comes out that they were all later declassified, can we pay attention to the actual problems that we should be paying attention to? Nuclear power plants getting shelled near Europe and tensions with China seem more serious than masturbating over Trump getting raided. I feel like Trump is part of the plan, they can just say something bad about him and everyone shuts off their brain. This is the same "weapons of mass destruction" fbi, they are constantly pulling this crap.

Why am I so tired of this? Its been 5 years of constant "we almost got him!", "the walls are closing in!', with nothing to show for it.

declassified documents are still federal property. removing them without the proper procedures is still years in jail and thousands of dollars in fines PER DOCUMENT. he had BOXES OF THEM. his ass is fucked.

If thats the case, why arent Bush, Obama and Clinton already rotting in jail? We know for a fact they did the same thing. Hillary and George even destroyed several documents. It seems like more misdirection near state election date.

This happens every time, without fail. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_United_States_elections

The scary thing is, they would do the same thing to Bernie or anyone else who got in the oligarchs way. Trump running for president is the worst thing that could have happened, hes an asshole and gave them a green light to make whatever laws and intimidate people in any way they want. The fbi is well known for running these operations overseas, and increasingly more and more domestically now.

Anyway, pay attention to the economy, actual whistleblowers being jailed, the wars being started and going on... this is all political bs theater.. again.

Hell American forces have been helping Saudi Arabia commit genocide in Yemen, wake the hell up.

'Attorney General Merrick Garland revealed during a brief Thursday speech that he personally approved the search warrant at Mar-a-Lago, and that the DOJ has asked a federal court to unseal the document.

[...]

The FBI was looking for 'classified documents relating to nuclear weapons,' among other things, during its Monday raid at former President Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence, WaPo reports, citing 'people familiar with the investigation.'

So - we're to believe that the FBI took several boxes from Trump in June, told him to put a bigger lock, and then two months later realized 'oh -- he might have nuclear secrets' - justifying the raid.

[...]

"Not only will I not oppose the release of documents related to the unAmerican, unwarranted, and unnecessary raid and break-in of my home in Palm Beach, Florida, Mar-a-Lago, I am going a step further by ENCOURAGING the immediate release of those documents, even though they have been drawn up by radical left Democrats and possible future political opponents, who have a strong and powerful vested interest in attacking me, much as they have done for the last 6 years…" Trump said in a Thursday night post on Truth Social.

"This unprecedented political weaponization of law enforcement is inappropriate and highly unethical. The world is watching as our Country is being brought to a new low, not only on our border, crime, economy, energy, national security, and so much more, but also with respect to our sacred elections!" he said in a subsequent post.'

"Whataboutism" isn't an excuse to not hold Trump accountable.
I don't care what happens to him, my point is they keep just making things up about him and use it to distract from what is happening around you. It works especially well if its something others have done without consequence, divide and conquer.

Ya thats the story, straight from Jeff Bezos and friends. Its a cartoon... The fbi is known to feed reporters complete lies (never with a name attached), they have had to retract countless articles in the last few years. Wait and see, stay focused on more important things. There is a reason Assange isnt a free man, and it has nothing to do with Trump.

"My attorneys and representatives were cooperating fully, and very good relationships had been established," Donald Trump said. "The government could have had whatever they wanted, if we had it. They asked us to put an additional lock on a certain area — DONE! Everything was fine, better than that of most previous Presidents, and then, out of nowhere and with no warning, Mar-a-Lago was raided, at 6:30 in the morning, by VERY large numbers of agents, and even 'safecrackers.' They got way ahead of themselves. Crazy!" -Donald Trump

So the correct procedure is tell the suspect's lawyer before searching for proofs? Nice to know, I bet that's exactly what happens with regular citizens.

If it were real, it wouldnt be a big show. they would hold him, make everyone shut up and have actual charges and evidence. This is a clown show. Trump loves any attention, so im sure hes going with it. Trump is the reality show president, its by design.

So then the racists lost the Chinese Civil War?
Race and nation are indeed related. But the wish to be with one´s own does not necessitate superiority. A black person can prefer black company without feeling superior, right?
I prefer to be with my child/parents/siblings. It does not mean I think my parents are superior.

Please refute this statement.

There is actually only one race. The entire idea of multiple races only appeared from people into eugenics, they made it up. It gets even more absurd when you look at the court cases where people originating from different countries went to court to fight to have “whiteness”. The reason they created the idea of race in the United States was to create class based on appearance.

It's only one race but a huge amount of ethnicities. The life game is not even or fair and your ethnicity plays a huge role on that.
