Loomer is not a gal to be trifled with... Laura stood up these totalitarians long ago. A badass OG of the fight back movement. Her civil disobedience tactics highly effective and equally visible! Support her in all ways (still) possible.

Well, yeah. That's why they're singling her out. They want to take out any Right Populist leaders.

Redpills to the Rescue:

  • There's no such thing as "Right-Wing Populism/Populist".

  • Just as there is no such thing as Right-Wing Fascism

Redpills for all: Populism/Populist = Marxism, usually mixed with muh democracy. It's one of Marxism's cover-words, for 130+ years now. It means the havenots vs haves; the 99% vs 1%; the elites vs the plebs; etc. When at least 25% of the population hears the word "populism/populist" they don't hear the evil of marxism, they hear something more harmless, as in popular. Populism/populist does not mean popular. It doesn't mean muh democracy stuff of "good for the 'majority'" (aka minority political rights/opinions are screwed.)

DJT/MAGA or similar movements are NOT Populist/Populism, no matter how many times Steve B. repeats it (which btw, is likely bc that is how S.B. reaches out to redpill the part of his audience that is bluepilled. S.B. said the other week, that 1/3 of his listeners are Bernie Bros. and buy into the class-warfare of marxim.)

There's tons of historical reading and materials, including lots of old political pamphlets, speeches, books, etc. And looking back on historical info with what you know now about marxism-commies, Marx & Engels, etc. You'll see the same stripes all throughout the historical stuff then and now, and how it's all LEFTIE marxism and LEFTIE muh democracy, including class warfare, fiat central banking, religious strife, etc. vs the Republican = For our Republic & Free Market.

POPULISM = MARXISM

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Populism

The term populism came into use in the late 19th century alongside the promotion of democracy. In the United States, it was closely associated with the People's Party, while in the Russian Empire it was linked to the agrarian socialist Narodnik movement.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/People%27s_Party_(United_States)

In the United States, the term "populist" originally referred to the Populist Party and related left-wing movements of the late 19th century that wanted to curtail the power of the corporate and financial establishment.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narodniks

The Narodniks were in many ways the intellectual and political forebears and, in notable cases, direct participants of the Russian Revolution—in particular of the Socialist-Revolutionary Party, which went on to greatly influence Russian history in the 20th century.

  • Marxism (heavy) = Communism

  • Marxism (medium) = Fascism

  • Marxism (light) = Socialism

Marxism is evil in all its forms; and promotes violations of at least 3 of the 10 Commandment: Theft/Stealing; Covetting; and Murder/Killing.

Marxism vs Liberty. This is what's going on in this world and the USA.

For some fun, Take a quick skim of this 2 page pamphlet from the 1892 Populist Party Platform (sounds just like AOC):

I agree - populism is the WRONG term to describe trumps policy. Common sense pro nation policies that actually work aren’t populism, as opposed to populist policies that sound good but are a disaster in practice.
