The problem with your logic though is you think it just started one day. We've been on this road for a while. Trump doesn't exist without Bill Clinton's deregulation spree. Donald Trump wouldn't nearly be this powerful without Obama's expansion of the surveillance state. Neoliberals have contributed to what we're seeing right now and it's important not to forget that. During the Bush Administration all the neoliberals voted for the Patriot Act which basically created everything that's killing people in the street right now.

    Yeah, except they didn't use it to kill people. The crime is not buying the car, or sharpening the knife, the crime is driving somewhere and stabbing people.

    Yeah, except they didn’t use it to kill people.

    And they never asked themselves what would happen when it inevitably fell into nefarious hands. Because neoliberals exist to prepare a comfortable environment for fascism to flourish in.

    Again, making knifes and selling knifes is not a crime. Stabbing people is.

    Taking commissions to make knives from people wearing shirts that say "I'm going to stab you as soon as you make me a knife" isn't a crime. But it's foolish and gets you stabbed.

    Which is why you support anyone who does it.

    Those regulations existed for decades, sometimes centuries, and it were lobbied for by Trump or project 2025.

    Nobody was wearing that t-shirt.

    When the regulations were put in place, people who saw shit like this coming tried to warn you. But centrists don't listen to anyone not named netanyahu, so they barreled ahead.

    Obama literally assinated American citizens. And don't forget that people have died in the same types of camps before when his man Tom Homann was working for him. Its all connected.

    Also neoliberals being okay murdering innocent people just cause they werent born here being old news is also the same problem.
