Fascism

In the words of the wise old saw, is forever descending on America, but landing on Europe. Make of it what you will, Mrzsxxx Winegarters.

AFT’s Randi Weingarten warns in ‘unhinged’ speech of fascism, violence if Trump is elected
American Federation of Teachers boss Randi Weingarten has been ripped as an “unhinged lunatic” after she delivered a wild, political rally-style speech suggesting that former President Donald Trump was an “existential threat” to democracy.

The teachers’ union president screamed and shouted at her members as she warned of looming violence and fascism if Trump wins the 2024 election when she took the stage during the AFT’s annual convention in Houston, Texas, on Monday.

“The November elections will determine which path we take as a nation. Progress is indeed possible, but so is the eradication of the rights and freedoms we hold dear,” the union boss declared in her lengthy speech.

“Historians…who study threats to democracy and how fascists come to power conclude that it is seldom a dramatic event or attack that lets fascism in the door. The violence comes later after they are voted in,” she continued.

“Voting is still our best defense against tyranny and fascism.”

If you truly believe that foofaraw, then you aren’t very much worried about fascism at all, now are you? Because voting sure as hell didn’t offer America That Was anything much in the way of defense against it, as we all should know by now.

At one point, a fired-up Weingarten appeared to jump up and down on stage as she continued to rant into the microphone.

“When the history books are written about this moment, let them record that we the people united, mobilized and voted down this existential threat to democracy and freedom,” she shouted.

“That we continued the march for progress, that we laid the foundation for a better future and that we sought to create a more perfect union. Progress is possible. Keep marching.”

Flailing her arms, Weingarten continued: “Imagine a country where hate has no harbor and freedom rings. The freedom to vote. To live, to breathe. The freedom to marry. The freedom for families to make reproductive choices. The freedom to read. The freedom to teach and the freedom to join a union.”

Footage of the bombastic speech quickly started circulating on social media as critics slammed her as “deranged.”

Ahh, precisely the kind of judicious, even-keeled temperament one likes to see in his “education” union head, I should NOT think. Kindly go bite a fart, you fucking lunatic.
