Ocasio-Cortez’s tweet was “This administration has established concentration camps on the southern border of the United States for immigrants, where they are being brutalized with dehumanizing conditions and dying. This is not hyperbole.
TRUE. Liz Cheney's "rebuttal" to the irrefutable truth that AOC tweets is typical Republican baloney. Liz Cheney, like her Darth Vader daddy, Dick Cheney, is a fascist. So, she will obviously do all she can to pretend she is an "enemy" of the fascistoid love of abusing the "other" through concentration camps! That requires sophistry at an Orwellian level. What fascists want to do is, of course, brand the truth teller (i.e. AOC) as a "hysterical liar". Anyone that has read the Doomstead Diner mad dentist's fascism enabling defenses of Capitalism, or fascsit enabler Ashvin's wont for accusing the debater of "projection", knows how that underhanded fallacious debating technique "works".
I agree with the article author Masha Gessen that the debate focus is misplaced, but I disagree with her take on WHY past history gets "disconnected" from present reality.
THAT, thanks to our fascist enabling media, is quite
MENS REA deliberate.
AOC 👍 is clearly pointing at evidence of the Fascist
modus operandi, now happily supported by Trump loving = Republicans. Masha Gessen doesn't want to look at how U.S.
Policy history
shaped the
current fascist practices here. Sure, Russia is fascist now and they did have gulags under Stalin's "Socialist" dictatorship.
But, the REASON all that abuse of the "other" came about NOW, both here and there, lies in U.S. history. Of course, nobody in our media wants to go there, so I will:Franklin D. Roosevelt made a HUGE mistake (these were the SAME elite Wall Street bastards that had plotted to install Fascism in the USA after FDR was elected) in letting them into the OSS to "rehabilitate themselves with wartime service" after they were caught red handed STILL funding German corporations AFTER the U.S. was at war with Germany!
THEY are the ones that targeted Russian Socialism as soon as it was
clear (February 3, 1943) that Russia was going to beat Germany.
THEY are the ones that formed the core of the CIA.
THEY were the ones that, with Truman's full approval, went around the U.S. Congress to use
over one Trillion dollars worth of recovered treasure the Japanese had hidden to FINANCE closet FASCIST politicians in post war Europe against the
heroic Partisans (who had fought the Nazis during the European occupation), in order to keep
Socialism from taking hold in Europe.
That treasure SHOULD have been used to lower our national debt. Most of Europe would have gone Socialist, and the world would be a much better place now, if the
"Anderson Trust" had not been illegally created. Truman and his Department of War fascist handlers committed TREASON to help fascism grow in Europe AND in the USA. It worked beyond their wildest, murderous, fascist dreams.
