People are paying attention, unfortunately a lot of them like that he’s increasingly Nazi
Except he’s not a Nazi
By “nobody is paying attention” do they mean it’s been plastered all over the news?
And that his fans are paying full attention and eating up every word?
Yeah people are paying attention they love it. And the rest of us are paying attention and are disgusted.
The only people not paying attention are the Republican voters who don’t care who the candidate is and just vote Red no matter what.
People are paying attention, but most people aren’t taking it anywhere near seriously enough. It’s the equivalent of seing an armed nuclear warhead and thinking pistol.
Many are taking it seriously, hence why there are so many posts about it here on lemmy and Reddit and other left leaning social medias. The problem is that his followers like his nazi rhetoric.
The nazi on The Boys was right “people like what I have to say, they just don’t like the word nazi”, although many Americans don’t even have that problem sadly…
What does taking it seriously enough look like?
I’m not sure exactly, but treating him as just another politician like the media is? That ain’t it.
He’s a cult leader at the head of a fascist uprising in the most powerful country in the world and most journalists are acting like it’s pretty much business as usual.
We’ve been pleading with the media to stop but we are not in control. I’ve done everything in my power to keep them out of my personal space but as long as I consume American products at American retailers they will remain funded and on the air.

As usual, centrists and news orgs who don’t want to call out the fascism Nazi parade for what it is don’t want to ostracize the potential Republicans who don’t think they’re Nazis by voting in Nazis.
Nobody’s paying attention!!! Well, they are and you hear it loud and clear everywhere.
Democrats are horrified and disgusted, ready to fight tooth and nail. While Republicans are goose stepping their way through the Capital smearing shit on the walls trying to overthrow elections.
Gotta pretend like there’s still good people voting in Nazis that might change their mind though! Not that they’re voting in greasy BO old man shit smelling fascist dictators because they want fascist dictators.
And right on time! MiGrAnT CaRaVaNs are being peddled again.
Media putting on kids gloves for conservatives? Say it ain’t so
That’s me, Nobody Nobody.

And what they can’t seem to comprehend is that “their guy” won’t be “their guy” as soon as he doesn’t need them anymore.
Or until it’s convenient to sell them out
Its probably because the only book he ever actually kinda ready was Mein Kompf.
does not help when there are people not allowed to vote and the only other option is to vote biden who immediately went back on campaign promises such as firing staffers who were cannabis users
same person who ran with obama and chained someone to a chair for the sole reason she wanted the same rights as everyone else who was running for president and the same biden who is touting economic wins with a federal minimum wage of $7.25
this has been a problem before trump entered the stage and no trump did not make matters better
maybe the citizens should be allowed to hear from all the candidates and maybe who gets to be on the ballot should a federal issue and stop going state by state in a “united states” of america on every issue
Is this the same Biden that just pardoned a bunch of cannabis users from serving their sentences?
And the same Biden who on 1 Jan 24, nearly half the US states will have their federal min wage raised?
Look, there’s plenty to criticize Biden for, mostly ALL of his Middle East actions (not just Gaza-Israel), but let’s not pretend he’s all bad and hasn’t tried to help his own people domestically.
only what 22 states are getting minimum wage raised
why quarter ass or less everything could have pardoned more but we need the legal slave labor
That’s why I said “nearly half” bruh. We have 50 states in the US and a few territories.
And yes, he didn’t pardon enough people. I will agree with you on that all day. But how many cannabis users did Trump or even Obama pardon from their sentences?
He’s making an attempt despite having a gridlock Congress, and I do commend him for that. That’s why I said “nearly half” bruh. We have 50 states in the US and a few territories.

Edit: I will concede federal minimum wage remaining stagnant at $7.25 does suck though. Biden can’t force one state to raise minimum wage over another. You got me there, that was a state-loving-their-constituents thing, not a Biden thing.
“…and nobody is paying attention…”
This is something we read and hear about every single day. Not sure how much more attention we could give it.
The expert sounds like they are hoping that there are some adults within earshot that may suddenly wake up and rein him in.
It don’t work like that in the really-real world unless it’s extrajudicial.
It’s probably outrage bait to drive clicks.
But to be fair, this is a warning that needs to be heard far and wide, so it’s difficult for me to complain.
“Nobody” as in the world at large isn’t paying enough attention to the clown? He still gets plenty of coverage in the US! For his followers the more international attention Trump gets, the better, it doesn’t matter what kind it is.
I think that’s exactly what’s happened with Trump, is that deviance has been defined down in the sense that there’s so much focus on, it’s almost like an overload of sorts. The result is, you just don’t see it — it’s almost like he’s kind of normalizing this on some level. Even as outrageous as he can be, it’s been very difficult, I think, for people to maintain a consistent vigilance and see the threat that he represents because it’s kind of overwhelming, really, in many respects.
Precisely why this article shouldn’t exist. This article is normalising the behaviour. Reporton what he does, not what he says.
We should ignore Nazi rhetoric? No thanks.
That’s not what I said.
You can acknowledge the behaviour without reporting on every utterance (which is what he wants).
You said “report what he does not what he says” which is pretty cut and dried. Maybe you meant something different but you didn’t say something different
Exactly. Reporting on what Trump does rather than what he says does not require you to ignore nazi rhetoric.
You don’t see the contradiction?
I don’t think that’s what they’re saying, I think they’re pointing out that Trump says so much and has so much said about him that what he actually does ends up getting swept under all the other news.
Sure those in the know can keep track but the average person is just seeing the headlines as they come - and this article is part of the very same problem that it is pointing out
I think the articles a out him smelling bad or having a piss fetish are stupid articles that don’t need to get any attention. When he paraphrases Hitler? That’s pretty relevant
You can report on the behaviour without breathlessly trotting out every sentence.
The actual story is that Trump is using nazi phrases to stoke furore, generate headlines, and galvanise his base. It’s so tiresome that it’s working so well.
It’s been working for the last six+ years too, even my grandma in conservative land has called him a nazi since he first ran. If anyone isn’t paying attention to his Nazi rhetoric now it’s because they got bored of it.
I personally believe his stink is completely unrelated to his love of being urinated upon.
We are, we can’t jail or execute him. We have to wait and see if our justice system does it’s job.
Which is to say, did he and the GOP damage it enough in the previous years to enable fascism to take control.
Why?
Don’t worry, it won’t.

New Yorkers from the 80s were SCREAMING from the rooftops about what a pieces of shit the whole fucking family are. Probably before that but I’m not old enough to remember. If you haven’t been paying attention its on you shitbird journalists for not actually writing the truth.
