Trump tells supporters they won’t have to vote in the future

Former president implores Christian supporters to vote ‘just this time’, then ‘in four years, you don’t have to vote again’

Constitutional & civil rights attorney Andrew Seidel, for instance, replied to video of T#rump’s comments writing: This is not subtle Christian nationalism. He’s talking about ending our democracy

#ukraine
it really looks like Armageddon
a completely rotten Western oligarchy in decline wants to vanquish an Eastern rotten oligarchy in decline... just in order to get by with China -
the new power ... and #Ukraine must bleed for it...
Selenskiy just rejected any more compromise/negotiations - another puppet...
and the #EU is following like a dog... I always took the #Green party #Grüne as a neoliberal tralala party ... but did not suspect them to be moles of the #Atlantic-bridge #Atlantik_Brücke ...
where is the #climate-crisis ? where is the #Covid-waiver ?
a complete desaster presuming that the #EU will ever become some kind of democratic player - go on dreaming #DIEM
a complete desaster presuming that our oligarchs ever spend any more thinking about #climate_crisis
the brain-dead #NATO is back again as the killer organization it ever was - same for Putin's new version of #stalinism
so: game over folks
we are „governed“ by criminals and psychopaths and always were...
and there is no way out - unless we get rid of them (haha !) - game over - full-stop

The Covidian Cult (Part III)

by C. J. Hopkins

Whereas 20th-Century totalitarianism (i.e., the form most people are generally familiar with) was more or less national and overtly political, New Normal totalitarianism is supranational, and its ideology is much more subtle. The New Normal is not Nazism or Stalinism. It is global-capitalist totalitarianism, and global capitalism doesn’t have an ideology, technically, or, rather, its ideology is “reality.” When you are an unrivaled global ideological hegemon, as global capitalism has been for the last 30 years or so, your ideology automatically becomes “reality,” because there are no competing ideologies. Actually, there is no ideology at all … there is only “reality” and “unreality,” “normality” and “deviations from the norm.” [+]
