Nope. I will take actual learned experts on Fascism before I take your word for it.

Fascism requires a rejection of democracy:

Well if they take a day off its not really a “strike.” The point of a strike is to inconvenience the employer and if the employer can just schedule someone else, that doesn’t really work.

This is war against fascist dictatorship.

That’s actually fairly decent. I’ve been arrested and stripped naked a couple of times back in my 90s anarchist times.

I meant why quote “Scots-Irish?” They aren’t some fake group or an amalagation of groups, they are a little demographic group. Same as Muslims or blacks or latinos.

In 1936, Walter Benjamin famously argued in The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction

Let’s think long and hard about for whom these attributes are “strikes” and whether we want to pander to them instead of the most loyal democratic base; POC, and what should be the most loyal base; the middle class and working class of the country.

I have a (maybe not) irrational fear that a lot of people trying to join the “strike” will end up taking a day off work instead.

I’m talking about DNC chair here, and Obama was not DNC chair, but president: it was not his job to rally the party in 50 states and ensure widespread support for the next Dem. candidate to follow a historically popular outgoing president in a solid economy.

’d put this up with the original passing of Medicare, but all the same this is basically what Newt wanted. Sure he never got it to the floor, but it’s hardly like Obama was reaching for the stars.

She says, “What I can tell you about them is that three of them were minorities. Two of them were white. But none of them knew that it was a school. None of them knew that it was a historic property. They all thought it was just this abandoned shed.”

I mean so does Kanye West tho. You really can’t expect celebrities to actually know anything (they generally do not).

So the response I was commenting on was this one:

Tom Brady is the walking embodiment of the concept of privilege

And lost the Presidency, House, Senate, most Governorships, and most state legislatures (not to mention the state legislatures they gave up de-facto control over, those where Republicans aren’t a simple majority but have enough clout and allies to effectively act like one).

Didn’t we JUST have 8 years of that though?

And I sort of expected your communist dig. It really is predictable at times when people find their viewpoints challenged.

Where are the Latino’s and Asians and Arabs? “Diversity” too often just means “black people” in our conversations.
