After the gestapo shot and killed Renee Nicole Good on January 7 during a fascist attack on Minneapolis, hegemonic media reacted by blaming Good for her death, saying it "was her own doing” and attacking her character by labeling her “a perpetrator” and “trained agitator.”

    Quick question:

    If being in front of or near a car and it supposedly driving towards you is sufficient reason to kill someone in self-defense, what’s to stop someone standing in front of a moving ICE car and shooting the occupants in self-defense?

      Rules for thee but not for me

      They know it. Accusing fascists of hypocrisy accomplishes nothing, because they’re not playing by the same rules as us. There is no logic to it, just projection of power. The more the strongman and the regime lies, the more power they have. They’re not lying to be believed, but to say “What are you gonna do about it?”

      The argument that they are going to use is that ICE is law enforcement and disobeying their orders, whether conflicting or not, is unlawful and thus you deserve whatever happens to you

    The total absence of human decency in these right wingers is appalling. And the fact that most of them are Christians - a religion that claims to be all about love and compassion - is a contradiction so monumental, I wonder how these people can sleep at night.

      Copy paste:


      Related term: secular Christianity and cultural Chrisianity… Especially popular in America.

      People identify as Christian, cling to the bible, cross, Jesus on the cross, religious symbology as totems or symbols which demonstrate they belong. But they don’t actually believe in God or what’s in the bible. It’s mainly virtue signaling or a dog whistle for white supremacy. In fact most of their core beliefs contradict many of the core tenents of Christianity.

      Given fascists delight in acting in bad faith, don’t actually believe half of what they claim to believe, it’s not surprising that the religious right are often fascists. They experience no discomfort, because they don’t actually believe in Christ’s teachings

      They are not christians, they use christianism as a shield and for whitewashing their actions. Same for zionists, they use judaism as a shield and to be able to shame call anti-semits to those that criticize them.

            A religion is defined by the behaviors and beliefs of it’s followers, they absolutely are Christians. “Being Christian” just doesn’t mean what you want think it does.

            Doesn’t the Bible say something about only god knowing what’s in people’s hearts? And that only he can judge?

            Sorry that it embarrasses you, but they absolutely are Christians.

          Yes and no.

          Fascists delight in acting in bad faith and don’t actually believe half of what they claim to believe. For example, fascists often claim to be pro-free speech or that they love democracy. If I told you fascists weren’t really free speech advocates or pro-democracy, you would likely not cite the no true Scotsman fallacy.

          This being said, a lot of Christianity has been like this for a long time. So, meh.

      it s incredible how u can say that and not recognize the fact that charlie kirk was so memed to death that even are influenced by it. But to you im sure one was justified and not the other. if a lesbian karren think she has the authority to directly disobey law enforcement and put herself in danger for an issue that doesnt even concern her should be something to celebrate as brave, to me it s litteraly mental illness

          so the best way to die like a morron is to directly disobey law enforcement while making a threat to them. The sucess rate is so high that we even invented suicide by police as an expression. you can try at home so 5 redditor will talk about you for one day

    Don’t forget how much they were clutching their pearls about actual trained agitator Charlie Kirk and their crusade against anyone who didn’t cry hard enough about it.

          Have you ever had to preemptively prepare and plan to avoid being shot in the streets by immigrants or is it only for immigration enforcement that you have to be careful? If your plan for ICE is to comply with every order to avoid death, does that feel safer?

              “why don’t you think this is fascism!” “Well, what would you consider fascism?” “I don’t have to prove anything!”

              Ok. clearly you’re not worth the effort of engaging. Go buy a dictionary and try again.

    Here’s an idea; what if the fascist US government doesn’t send out psychotic nazi goons out into society to terrorize everyone, so situations like this wouldn’t happen in the first place? And then blame it all on the victim.
