The Ugly Shithole of AmeriKKKa is no longer a DEMOCRACY.
merriKKKans dont seem to realize this and I fear that when they finally do, it will be too late.
meriKKkans elected and are currently supporting an AUTHORITARIAN PRESIDENT.
The Ugly Shithole of AmeriKKKa has become an AUTOCRACY joining the ranks of North Korea, Russia, Belarus, Iran and China.
MeriKKKa winning!

while hundreds of masked thugs dressed all in black who block a port for hours and chant racist slogans are protesters
is not just because i'm a commie weirdo, right? i mean surely other people see this as absurd* too?

Ineanity. That's the word.

There are no multi party politics any more, just different flavours of the same narrative.

A. You are absolutely correct.
B. If you go to the court and protest this nonsense, you will likely be arrested and probably sentenced as a 'terrorist'.
C. We (UK, sorry) no longer actually have a rational legal system, unless you're a rich person.
D. We are not yet as bad as the USA. Thank feck. -

@moonrabbit Here’s the wide angle view tho: the pendulum always swings back and forth. I don’t think I expected when I was younger that it would swing this far to the right again, but otoh, those who experienced “OG fascism” are almost all dead so it kinda makes sense.
It’s just jarring (okay, that too, way of an understatement) to be on the losing side of this. And also, I think, the feeling of unfairness cuz the baddies are winning. That’s not how the world is supposed to work! But – as the world is demonstrating to us right now – we are somebody’s baddies.

@moonrabbit yes, it's absurd. I agree that absurd isn't a strong enough word but I don't know a word that concerts what it is.

If I understood right, and as Gramsci said, the word is hegemony.

@moonrabbit It seems the protesters were bussed in from a nearby village where they parked their cars. A local took all the car numbers and provided them to the police. But great to see Robinson supporters wearing burkas.

My take is the arrests are simply Labour coming to the Zionist lobby. Not wishing to appear as having any support for Palestine. The extent to which Labour has turned itself inside out in craven pandering to the Zionists to protect their Jewish vote is the most absurd part of this
That said, the willingness of the police to just stand by when the right wing Tommylickers and racists take to the streets is frightening.
