That’s why my fathers family fled China because the kids man! They were just too good to be true, gotta flee to Western climes to put some “bad” back in. (Couldn’t read the article, I won’t give NYT a dime.
I have just taken another look at Ruth Ben-Ghiat's Twitter posts today, and I would like to formally announce that she is the stupidest human being who has ever lived.
Well dang. Tucker Carlson MADE UP THAT FOOTAGE?? If he was there with a camera - hundreds of them! - filming allllll that stuff, shouldn’t he be in prison for like 20 years????
Seriously, what’s wrong with people?
Also, it’s funny how everyone is fixated on Desantis and everything he does. “Desantis walks his dog. PETA says the leash he uses is barbaric and tantamount to fascist torture.” It’s like they’re afraid of him. Or something.
Oh, so you think Putin should take over the world! And you're actually happy about war orphans and bombed out cities! I can't even...! I feel unsafe just reading this.
I guess we can look forward to being amused when these idiot shills are on the wrong side of the government power they’re loudly advocating for their opponents- I just hope the whole country isn’t too far gone at that point.
I often think the same thing but then I realize nothing will change for them. They’ll still feel victimized and will continue to call us fascist. I no longer credit them with the intelligence to realize what is happening.
You sort of glossed over what looks like the most egregious inversion of all in the babbling PC-Progs you shared above:
Ruth-Ben Giat:
"...giving Carlson that footage ... to make false narratives about J6 [to] exonerate the guilty. All part of the massive coverup underway by the far-right."
Sure, Ruth-Ben, making public the public video footage from the public's Congress, showing what actually happened, is a massive far-right conspiracy to cover-up and exonerate the guilty.
Delivering factual video evidence that contradicts the official, PC-Prog, version of ARMED INSURRECTION is a cover-up!
Remember the Rodney King cover-up by releasing video of his beating? Remember the St. Floyd cover-up by releasing the videos of his arrest?
I listened to an interview of RFK, Jr. this morning on Epoch Times American Thought Leaders. He spoke about all the conflicts between the regulatory agencies and the entities they should be regulating (FDA/CDC/NIH and Pharma as one example. He spoke about the flack he has received and relationships lost for speaking out - long before Covid emerged. One of his closing thoughts is this:
“If a government has the right to silence its critics, it has license for every atrocity.”
Anti-authoritarian anti-fascism now means shut up and do what you're told or else.
Remarkable how "anti" is mutating to mean it's opposite. Reminiscent of the violence done to the meaning of "literally". Or, well, every other word whose definition has been inverted by the symbol manipulators. Which at the point seems to be most of them.
This crap isn’t new. Woodrow Wilson lobbied for WWI by going after German Americans. Beethoven and Bach were forbidden in symphonies, Sauerkraut was called Liberty Cabbage and German Americans were being lynched as Congress listened to wholly invented human rights violations in Germany. All this to justify a war that Wilson called a “banker’s war” in 1919. So, we’ve always been stupid. It’s just now there’s so much more of it. I hate these people…
Where are all the anit-war protestors? Are they all college professors now? I guess it'll happen when they call up all those registered for the draft. Not that long ago, our congress wanted women to be mandated to sign up for the draft just like boys when they turn 18. Thankfully, that got voted down.
Why are we borrowing money from ??? and giving it to Ukraine or other countries? Why can't we spend that money here on our own problems?

I’m always amazed at the audacity of clowns like Ruth Ben-Ghiat and Frank Figliuzzi who think their arguments could possibly convince anyone of the points they’re trying to make...then I stop and realize that they’re not really trying to present cogent arguments for the Right, they’re simply providing pablum for their committed, dyed-in-the-wool Leftists who only need to hear their viewpoint continually and emphatically reinforced. These “writers” aren’t interested in seeking truth, they’re only interested in generating words, the only purpose of which is to create clicks, likes, and placated subscribers.
My friends who escaped from communist countries have no trouble seeing through this propaganda. It’s the naive young American-born who take everything at face value.
Not only is allowing people to defend themselves with actual evidence "authoritarian" it is also dangerously providing the seeds for the next insurrection! From a tweet in the ben-ghiat thread:
"Another reason @SpeakerMcCarthy
provided footage to the propaganda channel may have been to give the domestic terrorists a more detailed layout of the security and surveillance operations protecting the Capitol Buildings for their next attempt at an insurrection."
I'm not an American but can't you just like visit the capitol building normally and like see where the cameras and security are and stuff?
Ain't that the truth. And the security in the capital building is probably a lot more serious now because of the tremendous and horrific danger the heroic politicians were under.

Parenting is "policing bodies." Leaving your children to be supervised and counseled by government is freedom.
NYT has also been normalizing China-style "government co-parenting".

Confirmed
Agreed

Or something!
Just warming up.
The poor guy will be subjected to MUCH worse. He needs to gird his loins.
So now endless war is a good thing?
I believe the correct response is FBI SEARCH WARRANT GET ON THE GROUND.
War is not war anymore. It's a protected class called "Too Big To Fail Kinetics"
I feel sorry for war, ever since it was snubbed by "Friendly Fire"
Oh, so you think Putin should take over the world! And you're actually happy about war orphans and bombed out cities! I can't even...! I feel unsafe just reading this.
I'm hoping that was sarcasm...?
I was giving her the benefit of the doubt too
Oh for crying out loud. What a ridiculous statement. How did you stumble into this thread? Unsafe reading this? Good Lord
Have you heard of irony or sarcasm?
Please find your safe space
I believe they call it “funding the military industrial complex “ and getting kickbacks
So long as your investment portfolio has a sizeable stake in defense industries, it sure is.
We have no business in Ukraine. Thx to Obama we ended up with 54 bioweapons labs. It’s the central hub for our government gangster crimes.
I guess we can look forward to being amused when these idiot shills are on the wrong side of the government power they’re loudly advocating for their opponents- I just hope the whole country isn’t too far gone at that point.
Tell me how this ends, indeed.

Ironic inversion is right.
I would like to see Tucker show the footage of white vans filled with antifa being escorted onto the grounds near the capitol by black SUVs on Jan 6.
Ruth must have Spike Protein Brain Syndrome.
💉+🦠+🧠=😵💫😵💫😵💫
More appropriate for her "essay" to appear not in "Lucid" but rather in "Delusional".

Where are all the anti-war protesters?
Mostly in nursing homes.
I think Jacob Chansley is one.
We all went willingly to the communist/totalitarian gulag because we got our feelings hurt by being called "fascist".
Oh look sweetheart the furnace is such a warm and welcoming safe place. I don't think we'll ever feel threatened again..forever...and ever.
After a nice shower? Right?
Nice

The sky is red, water is green, plants are blue and the Imperial State is good and true.
Roses are blue
Violets are red
"What? No they aren-"

Wait, the Capitol has SECURITY!?!? Shit, I need to call some friends and tell them to stand down.
You have friends? Fascist!!
Nothing is normal anymore
Ain't that the truth. And the security in the capital building is probably a lot more serious now because of the tremendous and horrific danger the heroic politicians were under.
