It’s not “craziness” when Trump talks about an upcoming Civil War. It’s fascism. Past time to take him seriously: almost 3 years of evidence from concentration camps along the border to a Muslim ban to an emboldened & deadly white supremacist movement. (THREAD). #CivilWar2
This Regime makes a mockery of truth, they are foreclosing the right to dissent, and they trample over the rule of law. They have been relentless — and they aim for a full clampdown. Trump and Pence will not give up and neither will the millions who support the fascist program.
The fascists have their people in the courts and even if the courts should rule against them, they may well defy the courts. And if Trump IS able to stay, he will almost certainly not only take revenge but try to make a further huge leap toward all-out fascism. #CivilWar2
The fascism we are confronting is no laughing matter. It certainly isn’t for all those already suffering from this regime’s cruelty: the migrant children in camps ripped from their mothers, immigrants deported back to their deaths, & refugees barred from entry (to name a few).
The people who support Trump, who would go to war for this fascist program, are the same people who would have been pro-slavery. All who find it to ok have this overt white supremacist in the WH are the kind of people who would have would have rationalized slavery. #CivilWar
Top Dems are NOT, at this point, going after the fascist program. They want to remove Trump without going after the whole regime and without calling out the fascism at its core; this would leave the cancer in place to grow even more dangerously. #TrumpPenceOutNow
We cannot stand aside as spectators. The world as we have known it is being torn asunder. This requires getting out of our comfort zones & not allowing our differences to stand in the way of rising together in an unprecedented, unrelenting mass struggle to drive out this regime.
