In the US most students recite "the pledge of allegiance" every morning before school, which is kind of crazy. If you were in charge, what if anything would you replace it with?

Hitler on verge of possibly winning

Them: "Hitler sucks"

You: "Ugh, you're just so passionate about this Hitler guy..."

I mean .mls have to downplay how big a threat the fascists are, or else they might have to do any amount of reflection about how they insist we should do nothing to stop the fascists to send a message to da libz, while also claiming that they're the only ones who take the true threat fascism represents seriously.

Trumps a cunt.

That being said he didnt kill democracy last time he got in and he wont kill it this this time if he gets in.

Relax, worst case scenario u wait 4 years and he can never get in again.

How myopic.

  • Trump literally tried to overthrow Democracy in a failed coup attempt and to this day continues to spread the Big Lie.
  • Hitler's first coup attempt failed, too.
  • You in 1930s post-Beer Hall Putsch: "Relax, Hitler won't try again."

If you believe this in any capacity, then you really haven't been paying any attention of the past 8 years, have you?

To perform a coup you must get the keys to power and the people with guns on your side. I dont think he or a couple hundred idiots have that kind of capability.

Competency has fundamentally zero bearing on identification of a coup. This was a thousand or more idiots who brought gallows, pipe bombs, and stormed the Capitol violently while chanting threats to leaders and trying to instruct Mike Pence to stop the election.

This was the President standing back and standing while this all happened. This was also a part of a wider conspiracy with the fake electors scheme.

The people with the majority of the guns (and weapons caches nearby), and the power (The President) were indeed in on it.

Trump tries to kill Democracy

You: "Yeah but he didn't succeed this time, so all good!"

If it was a coup attempt be would have been charged if not executed. I trust the courts decision.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Which court's decision? On who?

Was Hitler executed after his failed coup?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

The American courts Obviously. On trump.

U sound like an ai thats lost its context

I promise you that I'm better informed on this topic than you are. So go on — which specific court case(s) are you referring to?

Speaking of AI, here's a CAPTCHA check for you:

Also, again, was Hitler executed after his failed coup?

Uve given me no reason to believe that, and u seem to be ideologically captured.

So go on — which specific court case(s) are you referring to?

Wow u rrally have lost cobtext. If trump did attemot a coup he would have been charged for such an offense. Such charges do not exist therefore he didnt attemp a coup.

Speaking of AI, here's a CAPTCHA check for you:

The second link u posted seems to be to an event that never happened.

Also, again, was Hitler executed after his failed coup?

I refuse to answer rhetorical questions. I find if demeaning and insulting.
