Sometimes I wonder how rich and powerful I could be if I just discarded my morals and started saying whatever I needed to in order to gain power. I mean, it can't be particularly difficult, assuming you could find a way to sleep at night. Trump did it, and he's on the intellectual level of maybe... A small but vicious dog? but a dog with some sort of device that generates racist and sexist tweets via Markov chain.

You're forgetting that he was already rich. You'd have a higher chance but there are plenty of people that step on the competition already to get nowhere. The business world is littered with them.
One of the most maddening parts of modern life under capitalism is that when you are young you are taught things like
- share with others
- don't be selfish
- don't take advantage of others
- treat others how you wish to be treated
Then you get into the “real world” and capitalism goes
- be selfish
- exploit people for profit
- take as much advantage of the market as possible
And you are just supposed to go “ok makes sense”
Oh well that was a fun video to watch. When he walked in the building the total IQ the room in no way changed did it, he has absolutely no idea what he's supporting. He claims to support human dignity and to be against the murder of Innocents (which should be the default position of everyone) yet says he's happy to be called a Nazi. I assume history books are a bit hard and too full of long phrases like "overwhelming photographic evidence" and "independently verified".
It's funny how self described fascists and autocrats immediately turn to socialism when they're in need...
Well it's only socialism when you give money to brown people.
That's essentially what these people's beliefs essentially boil down to. They don't actually know what socialism is, not really. They're just trying to justify racism.
Well it’s only socialism when you give money to brown people.
You left out unwed mothers, people with disabilities, and anyone else who isn't a racist, fascist, or otherwise piece of shit. It's only socialism when society deems you to be deserving of help. When you're just an asshole, it's crowdfunding against the woke mind virus.
It's a subtle difference that these cretins couldn't possibly comprehend because there is no distinction (that it's actually socialism) because they're as dumb as a rock. But try explaining that to them and watch them sputter about cancel culture.
I will gladly donate a punch to this piece of fascist excrement’s throat. Who’s with me?
He's gotten $32,000 so far. Being an outspoken POS has to be one of the highest earning jobs in America. The last one got a million for calling a child the N-word
Being an outspoken POS has to be one of the highest earning jobs in America
Which proves that left-wing violence isn't a problem in America. If outspoken right wingers got routinely assaulted, that money would not seem so appealing.
It pays to not have morals. Hell it pays a lot to be narcissistic, just look at almost all the CEOs.
At this point I'm shocked that people haven't turned to AI fakes to grift off these fucking twats.
You could easily convince me it's for a good cause if the proceeds went to charities.
I watched this yesterday and noticed a few things, Mehdi is so sharp and quick witted and wow right wingers are so open with their insane racist ideas. The part with this guy was crazy.
Sucks if he got his teeth kicked in. Gonna need that donation money for fake teeth like his news.
Hmmm... Maybe a bunch of pos people should go around begging for money from the lunatics so that by the election time the lunatics are out so we don't get bomblasted with ads. Just an idea.
We need a white nation! It’s our only future! Vive le Fascisme,” one donor wrote while contributing $88.
Yikes.
Another racist grifter fleecing the gullible MAGA cult.
The POS should work at a MAGAt run farm. Fuck him.
I swear I've read this guys comments on here before. frankly, he's a disgusting human being that's clearly insecure and fearful of people that challenge him and his world views.
dudes a Nazi.
He is on lemmy?
looks more like hes trying to get on thr right wing grifter circuit. he wants to be the next charlie kirk,
“I’m a fascist HUEAHUEHAUHUEHUAHUHEHA”
Why is it always the ones displaying undesirable physical traits?
They want to feel superior, and because of their flaws are only able to do that through other people.
The master race is decidedly unimpressive, I agree.
There's a cartoon I've seen from an old British newspaper from the '60s. And it's a guy confronting some Nazi wannabe thug. And the speech bubble is "why does the master race always seem to lack chins?"
I've always thought about that every time these types come on national television or post videos on YouTube.
I wonder what the fuck he thinks would happen in this autocratic government he wants to live in if he said something the ruling party disagreed with? "Being fired" would be the least of his concerns.
Oh, right, per the interview he thinks an autocracy will perfectly align with all of his beliefs so he'll be "protected".
No problem. Just pull yourself up by your bootstraps.
Two in the thoughts, one in the prayers.
Quite frankly, I hope this self proclaimed fascist gets beat up every time he goes out in public
Unfortunately, voicing fully legal traditional right-wing political views results in real consequences.
Yes.
This is cancel culture and political discrimination on full display.
No.
I like how fascism is a "traditional right-wing political view." I mean, I don't disagree, it's just surprising to see it so clearly communicated.
I really want that fundraiser site to be breached so we can find out who the assholes are donating to him. Fire all of them, too. Ruin their presumably already shitty lives.
Nah, just dox em so that everyone starts trying to grift them out of cash. fresh meat.
