In my experience, literally every single person who says some shit like “Shaun’s videos are great but his Twitter sucks” is just a Democrat who’s mad that he doesn’t think the Democrats are the good guys.
The US judiciary has always been stacked with RW freaks and every Republican president has furthered that mission.
American presidents constantly renege on deals, especially ones created by earlier presidents.
I find the hypothesis that Trump’s Fascists didn’t understand the bureaucracy to be a much less convincing explanation than the alternative: the United States of America has never not been Fascist. Fascists aren’t popping up because Trump became President; both issues are the result of the United States being a Fascist nation with Fascist culture. The US already invades and plunders whoever it pleases. It has 1/4 of the world’s prison population, and effectively enslaves minorities via racist criminal justice. It kills millions around the globe and occupies several countries. The country is largely run by unaccountable, bloodless lawyer psychopaths. The United States is already at just about Maximum Fascism.
The United States is the Third Reich with a PR department. I don’t know how any Marxist can disagree.
95% of Jewish Israelis supported Operation Protective Edge. From this, the conditions in Gaza, and the ongoing occupation of Palestine, it is safe to say that Israel is a Nazi country with a Nazi society.
You can do this with any number of American genocides and wars. The genocide in Korea vegan with 80% support. The genocide in Vietnam began with 65% support.
Does this mean 65% of the country are bloodthirsty Nazis, stomping on babies and operating concentration camps? No, but that was also not true of the civilian population of the Third Reich.
As with the population of the Third Reich, Americans are fed a steady diet of lies and propaganda. As with the Third Reich, wars are based on false flag attacks and billed to the populace as defensive. As with the Third Reich, there is a criminally prosecuted race that is openly brutalized by the state. As with the Third Reich, there are many agents of the state perfectly willing to commit everyday atrocities, whether they’re police, prison guards, ICE agents, FBI agents, CIA, or any other number of death squads. As with the Third Reich, there is an ethnic cleansing campaign conducted by official agents of the state, ICE. As with the Third Reich, there are concentration camps operated by the state: Guantanamo Bay, Abu Ghraib, ICE camps, etc. Like the Third Reich, the state collaborates with corporate interests in the utter crushing of the Left. Like the Third Reich, the US has enacted a Holocaust, unlike the Third Reich that Holocaust has been diffuse and global.
The US is the #1 influence with a bullet on the Third Reich. The Nazis admired our race laws, our pioneering concept of second-class citizenship in the form of a “national,” our genocide of the natives, our subjugation of black Americans, our vibrant eugenics movement, and more. Nazi lawyers studied the American legal system and its numerous ways, covert and overt, of maintaining racial supremacy. Hitler outright stated that the US was the first nation to advance the interests of the white race. Lebensraum is literally Manifest Destiny in Europe.
His position is that China is genociding Uyghurs.

“Is it perhaps a cultural genocide? That seems very possible, yes.”
