Summary

Democrats’ calls for unity are futile as Republicans, driven by fascist ideology, seek to suppress differences and maintain power through fear-mongering.

The Republican National Convention showcased this with chants of “fight fight fight” and speeches that vilified perceived enemies.

Trump and his supporters use “unity” as a euphemism for conformity, expecting marginalized groups to suppress their identities.

MAGA’s reliance on “enemies” fuels a cycle of manufactured outrage, and warns that Democrats’ calls for civility may inadvertently enable fascist tactics.

    You are a fool if you can’t see the difference between “vote for our candidate to save democracy” and “we need to use the military against our enemies from within”.

    Either you’re arguing in bad faith comrade, or you’re one of the useful idiots that helped Trump get into office.

      If Trump is really a threat to democracy the only explanation I have for the Democrat’s behavior is that they don’t really care that much about it.
