Alt text: a screenshot of a microblog post with the text “you walking down an alleyway with a gram of weed in your pocket, who would you rather catch you?” Below are two pictures side by side. One of Kamala Harris and the other of Batman.

    Harris isn’t a cop in the same way Trump isn’t a member of the Fascist party. Do you have a problem with people calling Trump a fascist?

      There is no formal “Fascist Party” so this is not the “own” you think this is. It’s not a parallel situation at all.

      The Republican party is fascist. He is a fascist and a part of the fascist party. Fascist is a noun or adjective, not a party in the US, so he can be called one.

      So no, I don’t object.

        Nah, the shit take is being reddit level pedantic in order to bootlick, you know very well what we mean by “{insert shitbag} is a cop”

        Kamala “Oink Oink Piggy Piggy Pig Fuck” Harris fucked over trans prisoners, kept prisoners with ‘jobs’ in past the end of their sentence, & covered for corrupt cops & prosecutors and now calls her carrier progressive.

        The truth is the two parties are closer on most issues then people like to think & every dem president in my lifetime has cracked down on brown immigrants to use them as a scapegoat for socialeconomic problems the political class dosen’t want to deal with & dems are perfectly down with packing prisons with people who broke bullshit law to use as slave labor, that’s pretty fascy in my book.
