They really are speedrunning fascism this time around. They did have plenty of time to prepare out in the open and gained public support with no long term repercussions.
ah, freedom of speech at its finest
Not supporting this but freedom of speech is freedom from prosecution. If you are flipping burgers and tell a customer your favorite category of adult film, your getting fired.
From what I searched, the meteorologist criticized Elon Musk on her private social media, not while working.
If you're flipping burgers, and later you get home and post online on a personal account about your favorite category of adult film, it's none of your employer's business.

Yep you are free to call out fascist your employer supports. And your employer is unfortunately free you to fire you. No free speech violations there. Now if they called in the government to take you off to a camp to be exterminated or re-educated. Once the government becomes involved it's most definitely a free speech / human rights violation. Will get there soon enough. Still plenty of reason to be outraged.
A lot of people here thinking the USA is speed running fascism here.
No, the USA was always an inspiration to fascism (just ask the remaining Native Americans as an example).
That's why it was able to adopt into it so quick. Not that hard to change a car to gasoline if it was already running on diesel.

Is almost a good analogy, but that's not so easy 😅
Frying fat would have been better, because most older diesels run on it out of the box.
Well it did take awhile, but it's definitely easier than turning a horse into an electric car
just have to replace the engine, how hard could it be? /s
better analogy would be converting a (relatively modern) gas engine to E85, it's simpler, from what i understand
Before WW2 broke out, the New York Times LOVED Mussolini. They kept pumping out articles about how much of a cool guy he was.
What if we called the original people Americans, and the newcomers immigrant Americans?
Clarity: Native American -> American
American -> Immigrant American
All life on land is an immigrant is it not?
Not really. Those are human made concepts, so you must start from the inception of the concept of immigration. Good luck finding the exact date, since it predates written language :/
Well since dates are human concepts as well we can just state it is immigration date 00/00/0000. Are the months or days first? That's up to you, haha. You make a good point, but you understand what I mean. If we consider immigration only being the integration into another state permanently then we would have to say we had mostly open immigration into the U.S. until the later parts of the 1800s. The first 99 years there were no real immigration laws here. (So roughly 40% of our history had no immigration restrictions for the most part)
Because "American" is not their word for themselves. It is the Latinized last name of the Italian explorer (Amerigo Vespucci) who explored the continents.
It would be offensively ironic to name the original dwellers of this land mass after the guy, it would be assimilation.
And due to the transitive property of humans, if we follow this through to its logical conclusion then native Americans are immigrant Americans too
Which is why "indigenous" is the best word in my opinion. Not just for the indigenous Americans, but for indigenous people the world over. It's generally understood to mean "pre-colonial."
Edit: The only exception I can think of is that the Vikings settled Greenland before the Thule (who became the Greenland Inuit), but Danes are not considered indigenous and Inuit are. Maybe because the Vikings that settled there all left or died out and also maybe because the Vikings and the Thule settled different parts of Greenland and had very little contact with each other even when they could clearly see each other across a fjord. The very Christian Vikings of that era were probably quite reluctant to interact with people they saw as heathens.
From the same people who scream and bitch and moan about their right of free speech. It's only their right apparently.
What happened to the right to speak the truth?
Their truth.
Their alternative facts.
The actual truth is for snowflakes and liberals to get upset over.
This. All these losers champion free speech absolutism, and yet every single one of them tries their hardest to shut down dissent.
They know the slower among us will rally around the idea without thinking about it too much.
It's not the left to speak.
'Just put the weather in the bag bro'
It's a problem that the purge of those offended by nazis/oligarchs hinting too close to naziism is this early.
The Nazi speedrun all around the world scares me. It's like they are competing with climate change, for who gets to kill us first.
They aren't unrelated.

I'm honestly getting real fuckin fed up with this country
Good. I’m ready when you are, brother.
...because it's really important that meteorology calculations are done with the correct conservative perspective, lest you predict the weather in too woke a way or start believing in climate change and other elitist liberal dogma?
He's such a dumb shit.
When will you folks learn to appreciate the artistic license used to tell a larger Truth? ^^^/$

Everything they accuse china and the opposition of doing it something they do or want to do themselves.
Every accusation is a confession.
Same as russia. Classic faschist strategy.
Her replacement will be predicting a lot of Heil in the future
