At what point will people stop being shocked? I'm really not trying to be the annoying "not surprised guy". But, it's been just shy of a year since we were watching a Nazi salute from one of our billionaire lords as Trump took office.
Are we gonna spend another year having surprised Pikachu reactions to every Nazi reference? We have SS troops going door to door. These posts arent rage bait. They are rallying calls.
Surprise is just a justification for inaction
I don’t think we’d be surprised if it was one of the obvious departments (DOD, DHS, DHHS, even what’s left of the DOE).
We just didn’t see the DOL joining in.
You haven't been paying enough attention it seems.
I actually thought the DOL had been effectively dissolved. So I figured there was no left to tweet shit.
Even if you're a dumb shit conservative who can't recognize obvious patterns, why is the Department of Labor posting nationalistic "patriotic" slogans? What does that have to do with labor?
A lot? Nationalism is deeply involved with labor on relation to protectionist policies and whether to have them or not. That's not to excuse how much they've fucked the department in the ass though
Really bending over backward to sanewash the fascism. Protectionism is pretty far afield from touting heritage and homeland. Lots of diverse immigrant union members on board with protectionism and almost never for nationalistic reasons.
Politely, I'm in a very diverse union. You're underestimating their like for America
"language similar to" yeah you're next, headline editor
"Similar"
If you ever talk to a Nazi/hardcore racist, you'll see they love dog whistles and inane symbology. This is exactly what they would do, like the CPAC stage being the shape of a rune. They've always been here snickering at what they sneaked in.
So this time we finish the job on these Nazis?
Anyone? Anyone? Anyone? Anti... fascist is correct.
There can be no other response. We must FINISH the job. No coddling of "the good ones" or giving the ringleader new jobs in the new gov.
I want the whole lot thrown into a whole and cement poured over it.
“Under Fire” I wish because they’re literally Nazis. Under fire is what Nazis deserve but in this instance I’m sure it means someone pointed it out and they pretended to be offended
Remember who you are, American
Ugh don’t remind me
Wtf? How am I supposed to joke about this? It's so on the nose, it's practically Nazi propaganda about Jewish noses.
Ah, you found a way to joke in these trying times.
That sounds really… economically anxious
Aw balls not Reich again.
What the heck is the caption about Graham Platner doing here?
Oh weird. It looks like maybe it was a mistake they corrected. It's on the archived page but not the actual page.
I updated the archive link. The caption's gone now.
"Work shall set you free. "
That's gonna appear sometime.
Most "Americans" even the whiter ones are not even Americans the real ones are called "Native Americans"
