Thank you Russ for confronting the ominous cesspool of MAGA fascism rising all around us. If one knows anything about 20th century fascist history the dark parallels to the rise and takeover of Mussolini & Hitler are everywhere. And no surprise, according to his ex wife, Trump infamously kept a Hitler book on his nightstand, praised torch carrying neonazis (..."good people...)" in Charlottesville and surrounds himself with fascists like Bannon, Stephen Miller, Kanye West & Nick Fuentes, and Seig Heiling son of Apartheid, Elon Musk!
I always said this could easily happen here given the right circumstances and the high percentage of fundamentalists who believe in Christian Nationalism. Polling shows strongly support authoritarianism. They are steeped in patriarchy, toxic masculinity, racism, mysogyny & homophobia/transphobia. They're the spawn of the Confederacy.
Russ. I read you (and others) to see what “the other side” is thinking….I despair of ever ‘reconciling’ the opposite views…how can we ever become less polarized? I can’t see a way through…maybe a ‘common enemy’? I guess that’s worked historically? Cheers.

They left out the important part, who the scammers usually are... Russians
