That is literally what makes up right wing ideology… Prove me wrong. Because, yes, every Reich Winger thinks that some level of control over others is a requirement of society.
Control of women’s bodies.
Control of immigrants.
Control of health care.
Control of religious views.
Control of other countries.
Show me a Reich Winger who doesn’t believe that someone needs to control others, and I’ll walk that back.
I think printers is kinda going the way of having to support winmodems for Linux… Just not as important as it used to be.
Last time I printed something was for a pistol permit. 3 years ago. And I just sent that to Office Depot to print it, and picked it up on the way to the permit office.
Students at the local uni don’t really need printers, either. Generally, the few times they do, there’s public printers to email the doc to, and go pick up (Or, QR code and a phone, etc).
Personal printers just aren’t that big of a deal these days.
Of course, discussing political ideology is “partisan”… Its exactly what we’re talking about.
And no, they’re not just talking points, it’s literally how we describe the various systems of political ideology… Reich Wingers look to construct a society around control and subservience. And, like I said, the question of “who” to obey, and how strictly people are to be controlled are what differentiates the various Reich Wing ideologies.
Reich Wing ideology, the entire thing, relies on subservience and deference to authority. The difference in the various flavors of it are just how much and who.
Nothing in there contradicts what I said here… There’s not fascist about preventing fascism from taking root. You’re making the same mistake made in “On Authority”, and calling revolutions where the people cast off their chains of oppression as “Authoritarian”…
Fascism has a very clear definition. And who decides the malcontents? That’s also easy: Are you trying to harm people? Then you are a malcontent.
You are attempting to obfuscate the discussion here. We all know what fascism is. We also all know its wrong to hurt people.
Not many people who never served would know, tbh.
if only…
A pack of smokes in NYS is ~$15US right now.
Group efforts to root out fascism or other malcontents is hardly “Orwellian”…
Being a Reich Winger is incompatible with rational or thoughtful discussion.
Reich wing ideology boils down to subservience and deference to authority, not knowledge.
Shit, they can do a lemmy or kbin instance, it would fit their format anyways. Post link from their domain, and it gets shared across the network.
News outlets should be spinning up their own federated social media instances, so that THEY control their own platform, akin to a website, or email addresses.
That solves all of their issues with it.
Dunno about liberals, but I don’t like hanging out at nazi bars.
So, it mostly doesn’t mirror US demographics then, as the US, as a whole, skews away from the GOP.
Yes, I get it, “but the ballots”… ballot cast are not a 1:1 for the party lean of the US as a whole.
You can fight the elephant trails, or accept them being there. Your choice.
There are also things called elephant trails.
People commenting to be able to easily come back to the topic are creating an elephant trail, which will exist regardless of the UI designer, if the software allows people to do it.
The real crime is his shirt.
But all of them voted to ban abortion, so they can sod off with “Well, it’s not what I believe”…
And yet, they voted to eliminate all non-white immigration. So, again, they can sod off.
The ACA regulated health insurance, not health care. Reich Wingers want health care choices controlled, while de-regulating corporations.
Look up the percentage that voted for Trump, and that’s your percentage of people who are Reich Wingers and want to have the state tell humans what health care they can get like:
What percentage of them voted for Trump?
Because that percentage voted for a Christofascist system of government.
Trump is an isolationist. Unless it’s:
Sure… “Anti-interference”, unless it’s a friend of his like Putin, or Assad, etc etc.
Those stats are meaningless. The only stat that matters is who they voted for.
Sure, find me a Reich Winger who isn’t what I described. I’m sure they will be a lot like “Trump is really anti-interference!”
