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”.
LOL, shift?
This is who and what the conservatives and Republicans have always been. It’s not new with Taco, it’s just the mask is off now.
Now “JD” is out there saying you no longer have to apologize for being white.
As if that was ever a thing, but Donvict is also fond of saying people can say “merry xmas” now, as if it ever stopped or slowed down or was ever restrained in any way whatsoever.
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.
Or that the Republican Party is full of Republicans and conservatives.
How could this be? /pikachu_face
You don’t mean the same guy who took out full page ads calling for the execution of the Central Park 5???
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”.
No shit ya dumb fuckasses, you knew this and tacitly approved. All unions that back any republicans need all their leadership violently ousted.
Shift? How can they shift towards white supremacy when they are already 100% white supremacy?
I didn’t see it before so it wasn’t happening! /s
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.
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.
They’re not really hiding it.
The latest White House twitter post about Greenland says ‘Which way, Greenland man?’ and it’s a clear play on ‘Which way next White Man?’, a book about how Hitler was right.
Is that like how a sunny day shifts towards being long?
