He says this kind of crap literally every day. Didn’t he say Harris voters would be in danger like, literally yesterday? It’s not “stunning” anyone anymore, we’re just supposed to act like people in power actually care that he’s a xenophobic, narcissistic fascist. Headlines like this are supposed to comfort us into believing that those with power are actually stunned or upset by what he said. Every day? For eight+ years? Get the fuck out of here.
Won’t someone please think of our leaders’ pearls.
It’s better to have it reported than for us all to be normalized to a potential president wholeheartedly adopting fascist language.
It’d be better if a pearl clutcher passed a law or something, but with half of them frothing at the chance to turn on their own constituents…
Ok but who’s actually stunned by him
The Orange POS Nazi is copying 1920’s, 30’s and 40’s Germany.
Eugenics has its roots in the US.
I’ve stopped bothering with links from RawStory. It’s all just ragebait headlines. There’s a nugget of truth and I’m encouraging everyone to vote blue up and down the ballot, but these AI generated articles aren’t really helping. There are a few sites that are the same all up and down, but this is one of the worst.
Well yeah of course he’s going to bring out the eugenics, he surrounds himself with his fellow Nazis.
Wow! The year is 2024, and the Republican candidate is running his platform on genetic cleansing. I did not-see this coming, who could have possibly predicted it?
We knew it. We said it. Its plain as day and the news media will ignore it. The pundits will walk it back. The public will defend it. And we will be Christo-fascists.
And half the planet will die as a result, either through genocide or nuclear escalation
You mean White Nationalist Christo-fascists?
Pretty much. I’d rather a revolution break out then see this NAZI be president again.
It’s very funny that eugenicists always look inbred and disgusting
Like the well-bred Hapsburgs!
You will respect the girth of their chins.
It’s so sad so many will brush this off.
I cant be more ashamed then I am of my fellow country men. I knew shit was wrong growing up. I did my best to stay out of their way but to see it so clearly in their politics I just can’t anymore. Americans are a ravenous people. We harbor them. We protect them. That is what we are.
Eugenics getting freely discussed by a presidential candidate. Shame on me. Shame on all of us.
Shoot the dictator and prevent the war? But the dictator is merely the tip of the whole festering boil of social pus from which dictators emerge; shoot one, and there’ll be another one along in a minute. Shoot him too? Why not shoot everyone and invade Poland?
In fifty years’, thirty years’, ten years’ time the world will be very nearly back on its old course. History always has a great weight of inertia.

I don’t fucking get the right.
“Evolution is evil it says we’re monkeys!”
“Genetics means we can have better blood lines!”
They don’t actually understand any of those things. They just think white skin, blue eyes and blond hair equals Uber mensch and thus the divine right to rule the world. And just like the Nazis, the fact that most of them don’t actually conform to the qualifications they dream up is beyond them. That’s why you see those pictures of Trump as a muscular Jesus, they are very detached from reality.
They worship Jesus as their idol but Jesus had literally none of those traits
Right, but that’s the crazy part.
In their mind I’m genetically superior, but only because of my appearance. Then if I come out and say “but I’m not genetically superior” they get pissed off because yes I am and I’m a traitor.
How can they possibly be comfortable with stating one thing both is and is not good?
Their goal is not to be logically consistent. Their goal is to make you subservient.
It’s funnier cause they claim blue eyes are superior when in most of the world it isn’t, especially when the world is heating up more and more and we have less ice and snow.
What do blue eyes have to do with less ice and snow?
It’s a thing that’s being studied but apparently it’s also true for reindeer which turn their eyes blue during the winter to help them see better in low light conditions and brown in the summer when there’s better lighting.
Its basically also why people closer to the equator have darker skin.
- Too much sun = skin cancer
- Not enough sun = vitamin D deficiency
- Too much melanin = needs vitamin D supplements in the Arctic winter
- Not enough melanin = skin cancer prone skin
Yep and by that same logic the ubermensh are actually gonna be the ‘inferior’ (not that I believe any of that) species with the climate change that same people love to deny.
Melanin. Melatonin is the chemical that makes you sleepy
I can’t tan. It’s the worst. I just burn.
Ha, man, I thought I was crazy, I had no idea. My ancestry was largely from northern Europe - but my Dad did a lot of astronomy and typically had me find things for him when we were out in the field. He always said “because you see things better than me” which I thought was absolute horseshit because I’m near sighted and he’s farsighted.
Maybe I did because my blue eyes actually helped a bit.
Definitely a possibility. All life on earth is actually insane in how it works and why. Even the simple looking things like the color of our eyes.
King of the Elitists
“Many of them murdered far more than one person,” Trump declared. “A murderer, I believe this, it’s in their genes. And we got a lot of bad genes in our country right now.”
And he will still be normalized as a presidential candidate by this evenings news and by the country on election day.
I guess it’s that time of day to come to grips that the USA is ok with this.
The US has always been okay with this. They don’t teach this in school. But they should. The United States was one of the biggest inspirations to the Nazis. From the Jim crow south beating, jailing, and suppressing their unternensch. To the fabulously wealthy capitalists practicing eugenics on their untermensch. Literally, the only slight new take the Nazis had. Was the fantasy ayrian precursors.
Hell even lemmy’s perpetual good boys. Well if you’re talking too ML or tankies. Had a very cozy working relationship with Hitler. Invading Poland. Even when they broke it off. Stalin went on to massacre thousands of ethnically polish citizens within Soviet borders.
None of these groups ever really had any repercussions from this. One of the big reasons the Nazis failed was Japan’s attack on Pearl harbor. Which finally tipped things from the American fascists quiet support of Hitler with public calls for isolationism. Turning away boats of Jewish refugees. Combined with the discovery of the death camps. Without those things, the US would have stayed out while continuing to support Hitler. But IBM never faced repercussions for helping Hitler catalog and track Jews on the way to slaughter. DuPont was never held responsible for making and supplying the gas to Hitler to slaughter the Jews. Our fascists simply bid their time. Russia going from authoritarian to fascist authoritarian government today. With our fascist capitalists slowly dismantling our democracy over the last 100 years. Only some fascists lost WWII.
Exactly, thank you for the great response.
I guess it’s that time of day to come to grips that the USA is ok with this.
Absolutely fucking not!
It is literally a matter of life and death that we not only stay mad about this, but get a Hell of a lot madder than we already are!
NYT tomorrow: “Harris under fire for [placeholder] after controversial Trump radio interview”
FYI, I’m not ok with this. Tho’ I’m glad he’s saying the ‘quiet part out loud’, so that there can be no question on the importance of voting him and the rest of the GOP down in this election.
I would have agreed with you in 2016 but if the last 8 years has shown me anything it’s that Trump is normalizing the worst of people. He keeps saying the quiet part out loud till the right is screaming it
The Overton Window is a thing.
Shameful.
The majority of us most certainly are NOT; the sane ones are just underrepresented in our archaic voting system.
I guess it’s that time of day to come to grips that the USA is ok with this.
A relatively small subset of people are okay with this as long as it continues to keep them in power and make them rich, another small subset of people are okay with this as long as it continues to be targeted exclusively at people they don’t like, and a relatively large subset of people are victims of propaganda and media saturation. Let’s put the blame where it belongs.
You can talk about the reasons voters might be tricked, incentivized, propagandized, etc. into voting for Trump but at the end of the day they are making the decision to support this kind of thing of their own free will. Placing the blame somewhere else is easy. The hard part is coming to terms with the fact that the fundamental problem is not a shady group of billionaires gaming the system but rather a population too dumb and lazy to see those actions for what they are. That problem isn’t going away even if we get rid of all billionaires and enforce stricter truthfulness in broadcasting laws.
I’m not denying it would get easier to manage if did those things but we have to recognize that the people you’re talking about are willing participants in this and not just victims being taken advantage of.
Where’s Edward R. Murrow when you need him?
It is almost like he is a Nazi.
Nazis were big fans of American eugenics advocates.
NYT: “Did Trump say immigrants have ‘bad genes’? MOSTLY FALSE. Trump was actually critiquing immigrants’ choice in denim jeans.”
Ahh, so he must be a big time jeans traditionalist. Blue or bust.
Explains why he keeps muttering under his breath about the black and brown jeans in this country. It all makes sense now.
He didn’t say murder was in the genes, he said your ass looks killer in those jeans!
Lol
Blood libel, folks.
That’s not blood libel. Blood libel is the obviously false claim that Jews eat christian babies, often in the form of Passover matzoh. It has modern descendants like claims that “they” are turning your kids trans and if you get deeper you see those quotation marks turn into echo marks.
This is eugenics. It’s also Nazi ass bullshit, but it’s one Americans have far more blood on our hands with. A hundred years ago we in the United States were openly engaging in forced sterilization of minorities and disabled people and in doing so inspiring the German right. We still haven’t tamped out eugenic sterilization here, even when it was widely agreed to be the horrendous crime against bodily autonomy that it is. This is fucking terrifying as far as rhetoric goes
Remember when the right said comparisons to Hitler were unfair or inaccurate?
Then the news media whimpered away with their tale between their legs. Wouldn’t want to offend a NAZI.
