20th century fascism was characterized by a thick layer of self importance and respectability to hide a vulgar core.
21st century fascism is just vulgar through and through.
So MAGA wants to take away birthright citizenship and institute game show winner citizenship. This is the same government we’re relying on to do the right thing in a nuclear confrontation.
I am more frightened of the Trump Regime than Stalin’s in this regard. Both are evil, but one completely is completely void of sanity.
It is my hope that foreign governments are taking actions to take away the nuclear button from Trump. Maybe a deal with Qatar to activate the self-destruct if Trump attempts to give the order for a nuclear dawn?
I don’t know about foreign governments - who on the US side would make those deals, given that MAGA is running the government? But our own military isn’t run by robots, and they’re prepared not to take stupid rash actions on command from Bonespurs. This was talked about when he took office the first time.
Scenes envisaged include one in San Francisco, where the immigrants are sent down a mine to collect the most gold
In Cape Canaveral, Florida, the hub of NASA, contestants would rush to build and launch a rocket.
In Hayward, Wisconsin, they’d struggle to keep their balance on logs.
I thought you were being facetious
Just adding some relevant facts. Not the onion.
The odds of Mr. Beast being the ringleader for this particular circus is high.
This is like a really shitty version of The Running Man.
Shocking!
God damn, being true… I consider myself quite the imaginative and creative person, but these folks have me beat.
Still, props to these people - if they applied all this creativity and effort for good instead of evil, we’d already be living in an utopia, there wouldn’t be hunger or poverty in the world, I dare say. Instead we’re gliding down into dystopia.
Just when you think we’ve hit rock bottom they’ll yet again prove you wrong - as they say, “where there’s a will, there’s a way”, especially for evil.
We deserve Trump. He truly represents us.
FOREIGNERS OUT! SCHLINGENSIEFS CONTAINER
Satirising reality TV shows, “Big Brother” especially, a dozen asylum seekers were surveilled by a multitude of cameras, could be fed and watched by passer-by’s and two were thrown out of the country through web-voting. The way fascism looks in the 21st century: Bright. Sensational. Interactive. Funny - and frightening.
And they called me a fool for having Hunger Games on my bingo card.
Bruh, I watched the movies recently, and this is literally my first throught
These are fucking awful times.
Have higher standards.
Executions will be televised one day.
I know that I will have grim satisfaction while watching.
The Running Man.
It’ll be funny and poetic until we all get to watch a contestant die for the first time during a prime time live event … and the crowd roars and the ratings go through the roof as everyone realizes … the gladiatorial games to the death have returned … and this time we can stream it!!!
Bread and circuses.
The United States is dying
Why does my bread keep going up in price then?
If bread’s too expensive you can always eat cake.
We have the Millionaire CTE Scramble already.
You know. Football. Handegg.
Trumpflix, but that show is pay per view with the premium plus $199 a month plan. $399 pay per view of course.
The other show available is a live feed of the torture at gitmo and El Salvador
I’d pirate it and not watch it just on principle
Ew, but yes.
Ew.
May the odds be ever in your favor…
What the actual…
The more I watch Andor, the more I feel like a need a gun.
Coincidence, really.
