Oh no…the Leopards ate my face thread

German Conservatives were shocked when they were put in the camps.They consoled themselves that they were in a nicer camp with no Jews in it.

 

Cripes! All this time I thought he was malicious and evil-- now he tells me he was just so iggorunt that he is only now adding two and two?

 

Good thing is like the Bushies, he's now despised by Trumplicans even after giving them a Wingnut Supreme Court

 

If only someone could have done something to prevent this from happening!

 

I approve of this message.

Only case it doesn’t apply is in the actual tweet thread.

 

Is he blaming Democrats?

 

Phone is phunky. Doing what I can bruh

 

See? socialism is alive in America

 

Whether he gives them gub'mint cheese or not, they'll drive 500 miles to the next bund rally to show their support.

 

"Tariffs are the ice cream on the cake of a perfect storm"

 

The plan.

Smear Americans with so much shit that they feel cleaner when you piss on them to wash it off. Mitch isn't concerned about any of this. He's just helping us become accustomed to the level of discrimination we're going to end up with when all this is complete. Left alive but invisible because our history has been stolen from us in multiple states.

 

You can alternately add a second link to a Twitter alternative. Replace "twitter.com" with "nitter.poast.org" or "xcancel.com".

This is actually better for those of is without Twitter accounts. This lets us see responses and continuations of threads where a link to Twitter doesn't.

 

Nah, they'll say that the problem is that dear Leader is getting bad advice from all those closet Demonrats still in gubmint. Was it here that I read about a Gurbachev's older relative (uncle or grandfather) who was sent to a Gulag by Stalin, and when he was released he still believed that the issue was that Stalin was missinformed?

 

It's a bit more complicated than that, in the case of Jenrick anyway.

Jenrick's a man with zero beliefs or morality, He'll be a blood and soil nationalist if he thinks it will get him into number 10.

 

If they take power and enact their plans, it won't matter to the ICC if he believed any of it or not.

 

It all depends on what you are comparing them to. Within the Belgian context, a lot of Democrats are to the right of the Christian-Democrat CD&V here, and they are a center-right party.

 

This is demonstrably false. MR, CD&V, Les Engagés and VLD are all traditional right-wing parties and their backgrounds are either the Christian-democratic tradition (as much the fathers of the European welfare state as the socialists are) or libertarians.

There are still parties here and in most of Europe that can be traced back to the fascist/far-right boom of the pre-war years. You can draw not quite straight but slightly crooked lines from Verdinaso to Vlaams Belang and NVA. Though even that is a simplification, since the Flemish movement went through so many mutations and schisms. Parts of it eventually even ended up on the left-side of the political arena (the VU wing around Bert Anciaux that was eventually hoovered up by the socialists).

So whilst it is true you can still find right-wing parties active today with a direct or slightly less direct link to 1930s fascist parties, it is false to claim that all right-wing European parties have a lineage that is linked to pre-war fascist movements.

 

"Mr. Trump, I need to see the fruit of your love..."

 

I didn't mean the centre-right. I meant the right wing. The Christian Democrats, classical liberals...not who I meant. Sorry about the confusion.

The Christian Democrats are anti-abortion. On what issues are you thinking?

 

The Christian Democrats here are mostly fudging on abortion. They weren't part of the coalition that implemented the current rules and they are staying very far away of even suggesting a change to that legislation, because it is politically a massive loser for them.

As for your other question, primarily on some economic issues and specifically on social welfare issues.

Broadly speaking, the CD&V consensus about the degree and breadth of available social safety nets is much more ambitious than the democrats consensus opinion. Now you might have some individual Democrats who are as ambitious as their Christian-Democrat counterparts, but it is not the consensus party position. This is why I specified "a lot of democrats" are to the right of CD&V politicians. I am not claiming they all are.
e.g. I think someone like AOC might be in the left-wing of the CD&V here.
I would say they are also stronger on labor rights and family and community support.
The traditional blue dog democrat might not be a laissez-faire capitalist, but they are fairly fiscally conservative and that informs their more modest ambitions in building a robust welfare state.

 

My point is that Jenrick probably wouldn't.

He might leave the ECHR, (although even that's unlikely), but it depends what he does after that that matters.

Apart from anything there is still a significant section of the old conservative party in the UK that simply wouldn't agree to the more extreme actions suggested by people like Farage So in the unlikely event that the tories win the next GE Jenrick would have to chart a course that bears that in mind.
