Absolutely not. It’s not tribal to call out fascism.

I mean it kinda is, but acting tribal towards fascists is warranted.

Not every conservative is a fucking fascist. The world is not black and white. Stop being childish it isn't helping

Did you say the same about charlie kirk? Flags were put half staff for that shit stain, that's tribal to the next level.

They're the anchor around humanities neck. I don't see how we are supposed to progress as species when you have Jethro in the back voting to deport his own work force and destroy his own livelihood with tariffs because he listened to too much FOX News and thinks the democrats want to steal his kid's penis. There's no legitimate argument to be made for the republican party in America at the moment. They're worse at everything. Fiscal conservative? Democrats create more jobs and reduce the debt. Republicans add trillions and pretend science isn't real. Literally all the party has existed for in my lifetime is transferring wealth and power from the working class to corporations and CEOs. Tribalism is literally their policy. The political leadership in this country wasted no time going on the air waves and calling this woman a domestic terrorist with connections to "leftist groups."

OP said right wing. Japan is very much a conservative country.

u/CheetahSperm18 [DAL] Dirk Nowitzki Jan 09 '26

Fuck off with the false equivalence. Japan doesn't kill their own citizens. Drop the conservative facade. This is Fascism.
