It seems to me that when legislative majorities start to expel minority members for being too noisy, you’re looking at 50-foot letters of fire saying “FASCISM ALERT!” No?
@timbray Also threatening to impeach a judge just for winning an election before she's ruled on a single thing.
@timbray Yep, that part is literally in the dictionary definition of fascism:

> forcible suppression of opposition
@timbray There are a lot of ways to use "fascist" that are figurative or slanderous, but this is just calling it like it is.
@iDGS why is everything terrible :(
(done)
@iDGS honestly i had no idea, so thank you.
@timbray I think the more worrisome word we're looking for is "coup"
@timbray tbf they only expelled the non-white members. oh no, that’s worse, n/m
@carlmjohnson @timbray
they thought they'd keep the woman for their rape camp when they rebrand as Gilead next week.
@timbray I'd say the letter size is too small, but otherwise very bang on.
