How the fuck have we gotten to the point where pretty much any group with Liberty, Patriot, Freedom, etc in the name is straight-up fascist?
Furthermore, how the fuck can these groups claim to be pro-freedom while banning books, abortions, trans people, etc?

Wait, they straight up just put a Hitler quote on their web page? I thought they were slightly more subtle than that.
Edit: It's a newsletter, but still...
Moms for Liberty will not be intimidated by hate groups…. Expect for the guy we quoted above. He’s cool.
Carl Kalauokalani has no children, no background in education and no experience in political or community organizing. Yet a year ago, the San Jose resident started the Santa Clara County chapter of Moms for Liberty, the far-right “parental rights” group stoking the nation’s red-hot culture wars.
Reminds me of that picture showing the "Black Republican Committee" of Durham County, North Carolina.
These people are human garbage
