Have to say, I've thought over the last few days and weeks, observing Trump's behaviour and that of his supporters, how easy it could be for a democracy to slide into Hitler style dictatorship, Frightening

We could be seeing it right now.
 
National Guard all over the George Floyd peaceful protests in the summer but now nowhere to be seen when fascists invade tge Capitol.
 
He’s been normalizing this sort of shit for four years. The sad thing is this is no real surprise.

And let’s not kid ourselves that it could never happen here. This is where pig ignorance and prejudice gets us.
 
Republicans now "imploring" Trump to stop this. Fuck off, you enabled this for 5 years and could have impeached him. Burn in your mythical hell.
 
People who support Farage, Trump, Johnson et al enable Fascism.

Yes, I'm looking at you HullNaziPost.

And often forgotten that Hitler contested several successive German general elections, growing from a small number of MPs into the largest party in time.
(And incidentally getting 17 million votes when he did win).
 
This is so dichotomous for Trump supporters. What happened to Trump being a Law and Order President?

And Trump not telling them to stop until it was almost over is very telling. The tweets he has sent out can be summed up as, "great job, minions. You have caused enough destruction for one day. Let's do it again sometime."

In the UK, the Tories are the party of "Law and order". What they really mean is that applies only to the "little people" in order to protect their wealth.

Tory governments have repeatedly been found to have broken the law. Of course, unlike us plebs, they are never actually held accountable.

Right. Law and Order only applies to when it is convenient for conservatives/Tories. It is thrown out the window once the wealth of the rich is in question.

It also seems to leave when you question their desire for law and order....which is confusing.
