    It is a Russian-style oligarchy, pure and simple, Really, really wealthy people who are willing to spend a lot of money to get policy made the way they want it -- and they get it.

    Antisocial is accurate, but sadistic fits too


    The belief that society doesn’t exist, or shouldn’t, is a rejection of neighborliness and trust, a democratic civic culture, and the possibility of encountering those unlike yourself on equal ground. It is, in a way, an attempt to make the world your home — a place of safety and control. Of course the right despises “social justice”: it implies that domestic hierarchies and private prejudices will no longer be reproduced or tolerated “out there.” Nowhere are these tendencies better seen than in the right’s assault on public education. This shouldn’t be surprising: public schools are where a patriarch, or any parent, begins to lose the ability to superintend all their children see or hear or read, the place where the home begins to give way to society. In particular, the right is smearing some of our most dedicated public servants, public-school teachers, as pedophiles and groomers, while stoking a moral panic over transgender people—including the mere acknowledgement of their existence in public schools but, also, in places like Texas, targeting parents who affirm their transgender kid by investigating them for child abuse.


    The conservative assault on society can also be seen in their attempt to turn our public spaces into zones of armed conflict — extending the privileges of defending your home or property to, well, almost anywhere. An armed society is not a polite society, as the trite bumper sticker asserts, but something closer to the state of nature, the war of all against all. Now that the Supreme Court has struck down most limits on who can carry firearms in public, routine conflicts and arguments that happen all the time in the course of our day-to-day lives — on the street, at the store — become potential shootouts. With stand your ground laws and laws that allow protesters to be run over with vehicles, reactionaries are empowered to patrol the public square with increasing impunity. Under such conditions, going out to a restaurant, taking your children to a museum or public park, or simply strolling through a city on a pleasant evening take on new risks.


    Take the infamous bounty-hunter abortion law passed by Republicans in the Texas legislature last summer. It deputized private citizens to bring civil suits against anyone who performs or aids with an abortion after a so-called “fetal heartbeat” is detected (about six weeks), and offered a prize of $10,000 for anyone who did so successfully. Put differently, it turned neighbors, family members, old boyfriends — literally, almost anyone — into a potential informant empowered to pry into the most intimate and painful aspects of people’s lives, like making someone prove they really had a miscarriage. Similar cruelties have occurred since the Supreme Court’s conservative majority overturned Roe. Doctors hesitate to treat a patient bleeding out from a pregnancy gone wrong, ectopic pregnancies are left to linger until extreme danger sets in, and vital medications that could possibly induce an abortion are being scrutinized or withheld from those who need them because, say, they’re immunocompromised.


    These policies and others seem designed to sow paranoia and inflict pain, which is part of the point. The right benefits from people becoming more isolated, hunkered down, wary of others, and doubtful that a better future can be built. It is to such people that the reactionary message appeals: the best you can hope for is to hoard what you have, and attack the shadowy forces and alien others that you’re told imperil you and your livelihood.

    Repug fascism on continuous, blatant display

    Republicans Warn Google Not to Limit Search for Misleading Anti-Abortion Clinics...Or Else

    They said attempts to limit "crisis pregnancy centers," in search results would, "cons ute a grave assault on the principle of free speech."

    A coalition of 17 state attorney generals are pressuring Google to prevent it from limiting the search results of so-called crisis pregnancy centers

    known for masquerading as legitimate abortion clinics and

    persuading pregnant people away from receiving abortions.


    could steer abortion seekers toward these clinics,

    potentially putting their health at risk.

    Republicans, on the other hand, say

    efforts to limit those bad faith clinics in search results amounts to market discrimination against anti-abortion organizations.

    claimed Google’s decision to moderate its results, “would cons ute a grave assault on the principle of free speech.”

    threaten Google if they didn’t get their way.


    If you fail to resist this political pressure,

    we will act swiftly to protect American consumers from this dangerous axis of corporate and government power,”

    Republicans say they will conduct investigations to determine whether or not the actions violate an rust or

    religious discrimination laws. ( another example of weaponized freedom of expression)

    In other words, don’t moderate your search results…or else.

    Repugs will certainly abandon Ukraine to fellate Pootin for his ongoing and future corruption of American politics

    GOP civil war on Ukraine builds between MAGA, Reagan Republicans

    A GOP civil war is building over U.S. policy toward Russia and Ukraine,

    The Reagan Republicans have been winning the battle,

    but the continued fight could shape future U.S. policy if the GOP takes the House or Senate in this fall’s midterms.


    It may also shape the contest to be the next GOP presidential nominee,

    GOP lawmakers who want to continue U.S. support for Ukraine are sending out warning signals, calling for the U.S. to keep up its backing for Kyiv regardless of which party holds the congressional majorities.

    “If freedom is under assault by dictatorship and we don’t back up freedom,

    then what message does that send?”

    for pure fascist DeSantis,

    "(political, ideological) freedom is whatever I allow, and

    I will punish you for politics/ideology I don't like"

    Ron DeSantis Announces Moves to Regulate ‘Woke CEOs’ and Stop ‘Ideological Corporate Power’

    a new legislative proposal and administrative actions on Wednesday aimed at stopping “woke CEOs” from imposing what he described as their radical agenda on Florida.

    three main components:

    Prohibit big banks, credit card companies, and money transmitters from discriminating against customers for their religious, political, or social beliefs.

    Prohibit State Board of Administration (SBA)
    fund managers from considering ESG factors when investing the state’s money.


    Require SBA fund managers
    to only consider maximizing the return on investment on behalf of Florida’s retirees.

    speaking in front of a banner that read, “Government of Laws, Not Woke CEOs,”

    “From Wall Street banks to massive asset managers and big tech companies,

    we have seen the corporate elite use their economic power to impose policies on the country that they could not achieve at the ballot box,” DeSantis added during the speech.


    “Through the actions I announced today,

    we are protecting Floridians from woke capital

    and asserting the authority of our cons utional system over ideological corporate power,

    Republicans treat their voters as 'rubes' and 'have no respect' for them: Ex-GOP strategist

    Matthew Dowd previously worked to help get President George W. Bush elected, but since then he's walked away from Republican politics forever.

    the GOP treats their own voters like they're fools too dumb to know better.

    "They treat them as rubes.

    They lie to them.

    They talk about them in the back rooms knowing full well what the truth is.

    But they think, 'I'm going to feed our voters a bunch of stuff that we don't even care about but we're going to do it because that's how they respond.'

    They have zero respect.

    That's what I'm amazed it has not come through clearer.

    That's the argument I would be making if I were a Republican in that moving it is,

    'These folks have no respect for you.

    They don't care about you.

    They think you are a bunch of idiots.

    That's why they do and treat you the way they treat you.'

    That's what I think the fundamental reality is."

    Navarro was always the nuttiest in Trash's cabinet

    Peter Navarro’s Nuts ‘Dream Cabinet’ For Second Trump Term Would Have

    Jeanine Pirro as Attorney General



    This dream cabinet for Trump’s second term includes returning choices such as former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development

    Ben Carson for the Department of Health and Human Services and


    former Chief of Staff to Acting Secretary of Defense
    Kash Patel for Director of National Intelligence.

    Navarro’s list also included new faces like former New York State judge turned Fox News host,
    Jeanine Pirro to head the Department of Justice as Attorney General.

    Navarro argues in his book that Trump was weighed down by “bad personnel

    during his term in the presidential office and intends to avoid this next term,

    Navarro pleaded not guilty to two charges of contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with a subpoena from the House select committee investigating the January 6th Capitol riots.

    dream cabinet proposals also included former Rep. Sean Duffy (R-WI) as Secretary of Transportation,

    Ken Cuccinelli to reprise his role heading the Department of Homeland Security, and

    Oracle CEO
    Safra Catz or Trump’s daughter-in-law,

    An insidious ideology called 'neoreaction' is creeping into GOP politics


    in recent months, a strand of conservative thought whose

    adherents are forthright in their disdain for democracy

    has started to creep into GOP politics.

    It’s called “neoreaction,” and

    its leading figure, a software engineer and blogger named
    Curtis Yarvin, has ties to at least two GOP U.S. Senate candidates, along with Peter Thiel, a major GOP donor.

    this as one of the more significant developments in right-wing politics.

    Someone who calls himself a monarchist isn’t being relegated to the fringes of the internet.

    He’s being interviewed by Fox News’ Tucker Carlson and

    has U.S. Senate candidates repeating his talking points.

    Yarvin cites his political influences.

    They include the 19th-century political philosopher
    Thomas Carlyle, who disdained democracy and thought it could too easily veer into mob rule;

    American 20th-century political theorist
    James Burnham, who became convinced that elites would come to control the country’s politics while couching their interests in democratic rhetoric;

    and economist Hans-Hermann Hoppe, who, in his 2001 book “
    Democracy: The God That Failed,” wrote of how all organizations – irrespective of size – are best managed by a single executive.

    Bill Barr/ head Cheney's "unitary executive!

    Yarvin is perhaps best known for his concept of “
    the cathedral” – his term for the U.S. ruling regime. Yarvis argues that virtually all

    the “marketplace of ideas” is actually a “monoculture” that props up an oligarchy.

    The cathedral is self-reinforcing

    Another important neoreactionary figure is Nick Land, whose main contribution to the philosophy is the concept of accelerationism.

    based on Vladimir Lenin’s notion that “worse is better.”

    the more chaotic conditions became, the greater the likelihood that his Bolshevik party could accomplish its goals.

    , Yarvin has coined the acronym “RAGE” – Retire All Government Employees – as a crucial step

    neocameralism.”

    He advocates for a centrally managed economy led by a monarch –

    perhaps modeled after a corporate CEO –

    who wouldn’t need to adhere to plodding liberal-democratic procedures.

    https://www.rawstory.com/an-insidious-ideology-called-neoreaction-is-creeping-into-gop-politics/

    It's all BS obscuring "strong man fascism", which always includes corruption favoring the oligarchy that in turn finances the fascists.

    wikipedia:

    "
    Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2]

    characterized by dictatorial power,

    forcible suppression of opposition,

    belief in a natural social hierarchy,

    subordination of individual interests for the good of the nation,

    and strong regimentation of society and the economy"

    Jon Stewart delivers fiery speech against GOP's 'cruelty' toward veterans

    Senate Republicans blocked a bill to expand healthcare coverage for veterans who were exposed to toxic burn pits.

    The bill, the PACT Act, previously passed in the House,

    but a
    procedural vote to advance the latest version of it failed in the Senate on Wednesday.
