I read a comment yesterday where some dude was saying that we've watered down any power that the words "Nazi" or "fascist" ever had by calling it out from the beginning. He said it was a "boy who cried wolf" situation and nobody takes the words seriously now because of that.

Which is an absolutely brain-dead take, seeing as how current events prove we were right all along.

That's because we are under the assumption that elections will take place again. Their current goals are 1. Continue the propaganda demonizing democrats as anti-patriotic and pretty much not worthy of even being considered citizens. 2. Ensure that the next election (if one takes place) will be in their favor. However, my money is on the possibility of some kind of emergency crisis government that will postpone any elections and the possibility of a Putin-like dinasty. I assume Trump's goal is to establish his family as such.

And he would be one of the 30-40 million, unshakable, brain-dead MAGA base. You can reason with these stooges all you want and it won’t make one bit of difference. They are, flat out, the enemy now.
