Martin Nutty<p>79) I’m wary about tossing around the word <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Fascist" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Fascist</span></a> and drawing <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Hitler" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Hitler</span></a> comparisons when talking about <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/DonaldTrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DonaldTrump</span></a>. His Veteran’s Day <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/VerminSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>VerminSpeech</span></a> has removed any misgivings. </p><p>While <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Trump</span></a> has yet to achieve the level of power accrued by <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/AdolphHitler" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>AdolphHitler</span></a>, it’s clear that both he and his enablers intend to establish an authoritarian state where those who he does not like, or who oppose him will rightfully fear for their lives</p><p>Good piece ⬇️ from NYMag</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>USPolitics</span></a></p><p><a href="https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/11/trump-vermin-hitler.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/1</span><span class="invisible">1/trump-vermin-hitler.html</span></a></p>
Martin Nutty<p>78) What will the impact be of <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/DonaldTrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DonaldTrump</span></a>&#39;s <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/VerminSpeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>VerminSpeech</span></a>?</p><p>It seems to me that <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Election2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Election2024</span></a> will be a campaign of thirds. One third of the country loves <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Trump</span></a> and another third loathes him.If both of these voting blocks turn out in force, they will cancel each other out.</p><p>That leaves the middle third who can swing either way. Will they be encouraged to fall in line on the back of increased hatre speech?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/Politics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Politics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.ie/tags/USPolitics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>USPolitics</span></a></p><p><a href="https://newrepublic.com/article/176877/trump-vermin-speech-nazi-language" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">newrepublic.com/article/176877</span><span class="invisible">/trump-vermin-speech-nazi-language</span></a></p>
