All I know is 3 tons of cocaine blown up means there are some fish trippin balls out there. 

Tom Cotton says the two survivors after the first strike were trying to flip the capsized boat over so they could get in and resume their mission of transporting drugs to the United States. Huh? Is it possible that they were just trying to survive instead of drowning? I mean, this is batshit crazy talk. So much so that I thought about posting this in the RightWingNutz thread.

Another clown joins the circus.

The former pitchman, best known for his role selling the "ShamWow" towel, told Fox News that he wants to "destroy wokeism" in Congress and that he's been motivated by the "political infighting in the country" to run and "make America happy."

Nah, I wasn't suggesting they stopped being called what they are behaving like, I just meant it's a less convincing or swaying term to the general (potentially voting) public - people who should be more concerned by what's been going on and are seemingly unaware of the literal histories of the word and movement and its resemblance to today's situation, because the word can just seem like some arbitrary label.

I'd prefer to see them referred to as 'the defendant', but until then I won't shy away from calling them a nazi (maybe lower case is more appropriate to emphasize their lower class).

Miller et al, will shrug off Nurembourg 2.0 if we are fortunate enough to get them there. They are suffering the consequences of their actions now, with their limited ability to be in public, but I do hope to see them face a full rebuke eventually. I'd even take some mob justice for those involved in the current ugliness.

Should we stop calling them Nazis (which is accurate per their behaviours) and start calling them Soulless M*therf*ckers (also accurate, although maybe not literally - that I know of)?

I don't see using the word - when appropriate - as 'diminishing' the power of the word, but it's been used so often, previous to today's realities, that it's power is already diminished. As Lazy8 pointed out in a post while back, its use to describe anyone from Reagan, to Bush, to Hilary Clinton, etc. when inaccurate, has since made it almost trivial when describing people like Stephen Miller and others - who are behaving like Nazis. They just shrug it off like it's some sort of neurotic hyperbole.

"None" is of course the only correct answer. I am baffled and astonished at how many 'reasonable' people I know that think a little Nazi is okay. Or how many people still admonish me for saying "Nazi" - 'you're diminishing the power of the word'. No these people are Nazis and it's not okay.  Full stop. Pretty easy.  I'm saddened at how many people I've had to cut out of my life due to this, parts of them will be missed but there is no room for any level of Nazi.

Edit: yes, I said Nazi a lot. It needs to be said. When they cosplay in the uniform, minus the logo (a few of the amateur hour crew used the logo on halloween because it's a laugh), do the salute, emulate the propaganda, and copy the playbook, they need to be called out. It's a bad word because it's a bad thing. We shouldn't be afraid to call someone when the are doing bad things. It's how we maintain a civil society.
