Labor department rhetoric, such as ‘One Homeland. One People. One Heritage’, prompt comparisons to Nazi slogan
Union leaders have accused the Trump administration of a “rhetorical shift towards white supremacy” after social media posts by the US Department of Labor drew comparison with a Nazi slogan.
Recent posts from the agency include a video captioned “remember who you are, American”, with the phrase: “One Homeland. One People. One Heritage.”
Users of X, formerly Twitter, and Grok, the platform’s AI tool, highlighted a similarity with the Nazi slogan: “Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer” (“one people, one realm, one leader”).
“The similarity to that Nazi slogan is bad,” Christopher Hayes, a labor historian and professor at Rutgers University, told the Guardian, expressing alarm over “the motivation behind it, the message, the sentiment and desired outcome”.
And a stark reminder that the machinist union members voted almost 50% to endorse Trump and that the President of the teamsters union, Sean O’Brien, elected by the union members, is a die hard MAGA fan rivaling that of a 90’s teenaged girl NSync mega fan.
I think people vastly overestimate the Union’s being actual allies against this type of fascism.
Shift? How can they shift towards white supremacy when they are already 100% white supremacy?
No shit ya dumb fuckasses, you knew this and tacitly approved. All unions that back any republicans need all their leadership violently ousted.
Is that like how a sunny day shifts towards being long?
What does it take for people to realize that the pooch is screwed, the frog is cooked, the tomato squashed, the cat’s out of the bag and dead in the box? The emperor is naked, and doing a nazi salute, the evidence has been lost in the noise, the law broken, the perpetrators have gotten away with it, the grand wizard revealed behind the curtain, the good guys lose, it’s really dark outside, the dragon ate the fucking hobbit AND STILL people are saying “You know this could be not cool” instead of “It’s general fucking strike time”.
I’ll say it. It’s general fucking strike time. Let’s go!
Any protests we should be organizing everyone we can. Into innumerable groups federated on a general forum of sorts, to organize around what we agree on.
Most people are still too busy shifting the blame from the latest failure of the opposition party. It’s everyone else’s fault they chose candidates everyone hates that didn’t offer popular reform when everyone is pissed and the other guys are one election away from fixing elections forever if they can.
So now it’s just if they can, fix the next election, there is a chance in the succession. But due to the shifting of blame so inherent in all of our leaders nowadays, the same ones control the opposition party. Far from repentant they are more arrogant than ever, seeing their reason for being as preventing popular reform from taking hold in the party, the only thing that could unseat the other guys.
Do you do anything besides blame democrats for shit republicans do? Didn’t you vote third party? So you explicitly voted for maga.
Answer the question of why your opinion isn’t to be discounted if you want to discuss things. If you recall I rejected everything you think because your refusal to own up.
I guarantee more than half the people in those Unions voted for Trump in 2024
Two unions are mentioned: ‘International Union of Painters & Allied Trades’ and ‘National Nurses United’. I understand that the term ‘uinon’ in the states has been heavily associated with construction , and there tends to be a conservative lean in construction, but not all unions are like that. For instance, I’m in the UAW branch for scientific researchers. Just writing this to put out there that unions can, and should, be in every industry and that the political leanings of unions is case by case.
You don’t say…
You’re telling me the guy who had a book of Hitler speahes on his nightstand is a white supremecist?
Who could’ve predicted this?
We never could have known the nazis would turn out to be nazis.
You don’t mean the same guy who took out full page ads calling for the execution of the Central Park 5???
Why say white supremacy when it’s fascist. They are not the same thing. Fascism is promising much more change. This isn’t the kkk, this is a group trying to overturn representative government, fix elections, persecute critics and opponents, and scapegoat an ever expanding group of others for all of society’s ills.
Run by a supreme leader, or group of leaders, they will become mad with power and become worse, and are already starting off from the worst people in the country by character.
They are two sides of the same coin. It’s not like you can achieve one without the other. One is tactical focused, the other strategically guided. One devides the other controls.
Fascist can be other races other than white though. It is becoming rather popular in latin america. Including with latin americans in the US.
One who brought fascism to Latin America? Two: Latinos see consider themselves “white”. Three: no nonwhite fascist government has done anything of note.
So yes, it’s not all Fascist have to be white. But when someone says someone is a fascist people don’t picture Black people.
We will be seeing latin american countries following the same mold, and get help and support from the US doing it, that will help them fix elections and quash resistance. Just with intel alone they could do a lot of damage, the US has everything compromised electronically.
In europe as well, all non fascist politicians should presume all of their communications are intercepted and read by their opposition if it could help them, I’m not joking. Part of the plan here is to topple more and more countries to the Russia model.
We will be seeing more coups, like venezuela, which was a covert military coup, their generals are the de facto rulers now, civilian leaders are figureheads kept in place to sign over assets to connected groups, while the army keeps order, and when there is resistance the US will help them form and arm paramilitary groups, perhaps with illegal drug and gun sales, to do things the army doesn’t want to do directly, like run death squads.
As an aside, that grab operation on maduro was not possible, and would not have been attempted, if they didn’t have an agreement with the military to stand down,and intel on the president and any loyal contingents. Helicoptors are vulnerable, even to small arms venezuela has including non fixed artillery that they couldn’t reliably take out, like machine guns, rpg’s, manpads, russian shoulder fired stuff. All in a mobilized venzuela in one of the most protected places in the country.
It’s both. Hence the whole deliberately signaling to white supremacist neo nazis and filling ice with them.
“One Heritage” so, it’s just going to be Germans at the end of this? Because that’s what Trump is. Same exact goal as Hitler too, what a coincidence.
He’s German and Scottish, so I guess they’re allowed to exist as well.
