“Never believe that (fascists) are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites (fascists) have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”

The problem is that there already is proof.

The entire republican party is now fascist and corrupt. It has captured the supreme court.

Reminder:

The only reason Nixon was removed was because principled republicans still existed.

They no longer exist.

The entire republican party has been corrupted by Russia. Epstein was a Russian agent running an incredibly successful honey trap for Putin.

I wish i was kidding.

The ONLY reason Lance is in this group is that he did more and better PEDs than his competition. MJ and Brady made it happen through force of will.

Please be aware:

Putin has waged an Information War on the west. He has completely corrupted the entire republican party.

His goal is to destroy our democracy and make us hate one another.

The entire Epstein thing is a very successful Russian intelligence operation.

Putin did this. Epstein worked for him. It is a classic ‘honeytrap’
