Authoritarianism in America wears many faces ... Reproductive choice? No! Diversity/Equity/Inclusion offices/programs in public institutions? No! Access to a range of literature? No! Gender-affirming care? No! WOKE? It’s a “lib” thing, and it’s a joke. Critical Race Theory? That’s a left-wing fabrication. American Exceptionalism? Yes! Ax “revisionist” portraits that speak against it. Democracy?...

'Making Black History 24/7/365' (2/21/21)
You people are a bunch of whack jobs you want to talk about fascists look at the five administration the way the doj has gone after a lot of innocent people for no reason other than their political
Democracy is when no one gets to vote and Kamala is named the nominee, right? You lost. Badly. Come up with some new lines.
The US mediia is conrolled by six very large corporations. A large portion of their income comes from adverstising. The corporations that control the media are oligarchs themselves and are dependent on other oligarchs for their income. Remember the YT mashup: Brought to you by Pfizer"? The federal government also controls broadcast licenses for radio and TV and has other means to intimidate the media.
All of these people have been attempting to erase President and Madame President Clinton in the U.S. President and Madame President Clinton has had Three Clinton Administrations.
It's so frustrating to me that during the campaign PBS didn't warn the American public and just now are educating the public. I wrote them several times about their coverage. SMH.
What about agenda 2030 ?
Sounds like we’re fucked.
Goodbye USA. It is over. We suck now, plain and simple.
Trump reminds me more of Pol Pot than he does of Hitler. My fear is we are heading toward a right wing version of the Khmer Rouge.
Oh my god. A news station that speaks clearly on the issue. And somehow PBS is a punchline. Wait, what do I mean somehow, conservatives have made it an 80 year long mission to discredit institutions.
The irony in ur comment isbsignificant.
Big government and big business manipulating the populace for their benefit. Exactly what the Democrats have been doing for the last two decades.
Humans are a hominid with a language based brain. We aquire a shared narrative of belonging through social learning processes. Same way some orcas learn to chase sardines or salmon. The primary function of our cumulative and shared deep story is to make sense of information. If democracy does not feature a protagonist role in that social learning process....forget about it. That's where we are. We are just not that into democracy anymore. Not more complicated than that, the billionaires who control public education, or media, for example, are winning.
the PEOPLE have been brainwashed to still believe in TRICKLE DOWN... and that the Business of USA is Business.. but that is BACKWARDS. USA was formed to be OF, BY and FOR the PEOPLE.... not corporations or businesses.
Trump was the REAL DEI hire... big reason he won? conservative male thinking just wanted a white male and just couldn't accept a woman of color no matter how great she would have been
Stupid is. What stupid does.
There already was an organisation with unchecked power. A conglomeration of interests of Black Rock, the militairy industrial complex and the medical industry. Politicsalways serves their interests. Why do politivians not serve the public interests? If a public interest do not align with with the interests of the big powerfull stakeholderss it wont happen. Remeber Ocupy Wallstreet it was about the 1% of the 1%. They craftily pitted white against non White, men against women, straight against other orientated, religious against secular etc. Divide and conquer (in this case control. Everything to avert attention from the real issue. Distract from the huge income equality. Those who posses the means of productionand the worker. Just let the workers squable among themselves. Marixism was replaced by cultural marxism so the few on the top could preserve capitalism. The politicians are just their puppets.
Trump voters didn’t fight for democracy because they don’t appreciate what they have. Now comes the hard lesson.
All empires collapse
This is only true if you consider the whole of the American experience to be inseparable from the problems of white supremacy, Self-Destructive capitalism, and Christian nationalism. The moment you consider the potential of America beyond those two norms.. becomes harder to say that this is the collapse of an empire, more so than the transition... We work hard for that transition.
@solidstate2b good luck America, if only the first cultures weren't destroyed
The whole of the American experience IS inseparable from those aspects. Its the inevitable decline that is late stage capitalism. This is the final vestiges.
@@jasonbennett9910 this is true of how America has been up to now, but what law of physics says it has to be this way in the future for things to be stable?
I don't understand the question. Who's success? Fiat currency is on it's way out. The dollar WILL hit zero.
The Democrats attacked free speech, they're against the First Amendment, progressivism has become authoritarianism. They are attempting to establish new rules and new norms with this pronoun and DEI woke crap and we didn't vote on any of it, they don't accept criticism or backlash, woke is tyranny.
They don’t want black president again
Sadly, don’t think they want a woman either. Too bad😢.
@@jbponzi1 Margaret Thatcher wasn't available.
Wrong
@@paulschmitz9175 and this USA isn't UK either.
Yep. A loooooooooot of people who spin themselves in knots to avoid this reality.
For decades, they kept electing candidates who said they would help ordinary people but never did. So they must have thought what good is democracy anyway when they take my vote for granted.
anyone who thinks Trump is gonna change that trend is beyond delusional. he's going to make it much worse for ordinary people.
Well for their sake i hope they get everything they thought they were getting and if not, then will they realize it? I doubt it
What mechanisms of democracy that are supposed to help the people that is not undermined by the failure to finish reconstruction and a continued discrimination of minorities? The fact that so many Americans thought that another outcome was possible is profoundly disturbing... White America cannot produce the competencies necessary to keep their toxic norms from sinking the ship of democracy. And the rest of America doesn't have the power or influence to make up the difference... Not to mention dealing with their own traumas indicated by support Trump got from non-white Americans.
You'll find out what it means. People don't read is the real lesson here, especially history
Just keep blaming everyone but yourself.
Fascism = MAGA. Once America figures that out the sooner we can protect Democracy.
America failed because it's all based on lies. This is ALL stolen land, all of it. A genocide was committed against indigenous peoples. The country was built with slaved labor. The so-called Founding "Fathers" were slave owners and slave traders who benefitted from evil. Slavery lasted for more than two centuries followed by one century of segregation. It was core to America, this great evil, not a footnote. Then, the white supremacists tried to indoctrinate everyone into admiring and revering the founding slave owners and slave traders with their public miseducation system. But that's been exposed as propaganda bullshxt. Racist America took its mask off, that's all that's happened (again). They showed us who they were in 2016, and again now. That's the truth, warts and all.
JFC.
Isn't fascism where non-elected officials gain power and then abuse it ..... example Kamala Harris, UN, IPCC, WEF, etc.
Fascism that is militairy dictatorship specially related to Hitler and Mussolini. Any claims that Trump is a fascist are far fetched.
Keep publishing dark fantasy fiction about Trump as your sole focus and the Radical Left Democrat Party will not regain power. Thank you for working so hard to keep the common sense folks in power!
I have a copy of Dr. Stanley's book on fascism. It is informative and educational. Sadly, people will not know what they have lost until it is lost.
Correct , YOU don't Miss the idea of FREEDOM , UNTIL you NO longer Have it .... Then its TOO Late
@@Wilett614 Thank you! Worse, once that freedom is lost it will never be regained or recaptured.
They lost it starting with Reagan. All that's changed is a gang has come to power that doesn't try to hide it.
Again someone explains the danger of orange evil and its billionaire minions------FASCISM
The right wing has already taken over the news media. Traditional media has been slow to realize this. That's how they are able to get elected. They already have the Courts. Next will be Universities followed by Healthcare. After that probably the Entertainment Industry and then they will control ALL of the narratives.What the hell are we supposed to do?
So it is as bad as I have been thinking. Q: what do I do now?
Organise. Fight. Alternatively, get the hell out of Trump's America. Good Luck.
Run
Learn how to goose-step.
Great question. You'll notice that he keeps saying "attacking our institutions." This means that we need to do a better job upholding them. Whether that's through defense, like providing good services, or through offense, by disrupting enemy forces. For example, Fox News has been allowed to become an anti-American tool with a lot of power in America's culture, in part because the government has been hands off. But on a more individualist level, focus on what the guy said. Teach democratic values. Improve the people around you and in your life. At the end of the day, we can talk this and that until the cows come home-- until we have a quality electorate, we can't have quality leadership. And I think to get there, we need to improve the quality of everyday people by influencing them positively.
Leave Buh Bye!
Thanks for sharing your story and your reality. Sometimes organized religion lets us down when we need it most.
Worth a listen. Thanks for sharing.
It's been a Long Fight for CIVIL , HUMAN Rights?!.. Who's This fight been with.., Exactly?!.

hi
We are not in fear of getting sick. We do not fear covid 19. We are aware that it is a virus and that it is real. However we will not vote for you if you pass "ordinance" and "laws" mandating masks. You are discussing taking away our freedom to choose by making masks an ordinance or mandate. Government should not have say in our individual decisions. My body my choice. My children my choice. We will not vote for you.
