Americans don't notice the rise in fascism, like the frog that sits in a pot while the water slowly boils.

51% of USians - the ones who voted for Trump, and the ones who couldn't be bothered to vote at all - not only notice what's going on, but actively celebrate it.

@godpod The story about the frogs is made up. I bet almost all Americans believe it anyway.

@godpod We've seen it, but the Reich WIng has figured out if you just keep submitting legislation for everything you can think of, we don't have time to respond to all of their shit. And if we DO, they use the court system to keep things tied up for years.

@godpod A steady diet of violence as the solution to all problems, "rugged individualism" and money as the ultimate measure of worth will do that. The US has had a "barely there" social fabric for decades. Now fascism is there it's okay so long as they are not "coming for us"

@godpod Frogs know to jump out when the water is hot. People don't seem to notice until it burns them.
