Also, if they get upset with “government do thing” they cannot possibly be fascist as that necessarily requires a large central governance. I’d argue that putting more policies in place is more fascist and Democrats do much more of that sort of thing.
They can be fascist. They don’t need to regulate quite literally everything, just which kind of people are allowed and which they want to get rid of. I hoped that was clear when i suggested that republicans don’t want the government to be involved if the outcome produces an undesired outcome. Like kids being aware of racism, that LGBT people are not monsters, the american history being flawed in order to not repeat mistakes etc.
Now just for personal curiosity, how are they actively endangering your life? Endangering I can agree with, but “actively” I’m curious
Simple. They spread anti-trans rhetoric which has proven to be so infectious, it arrived in germany and starts to endanger me and other trans peoples lives. And not only trans people, but also other LGBT peoples lives, drag queens and even other leftists who aren’t part of the LGBTQIA+ demographic. Basically their whole culture war schtick.
You know, in germany self-ID was on the table. All the talking points against the law and us trans people in general (because trying to prevent self-ID is not enough) started years ago in the US. Luckily self-ID passed but many concessions were made to account for right-wing talking points, no matter how little basis they have in reality.
Violence surrounding the CSD also increased. I was lucky this year but other people weren’t. I will keep going but i worry that i might not be lucky next year if the culture war rhetoric keeps spreading and getting more radical in germany.
Of course there are a few steps between the GOP, FOX, Daily Wire and me but they flung their shit far enough so that i could notice its impact.
