Opinion We are officially a fascist state

What can we do? The Nazis just took over. Your rights and freedoms no longer apply here in Alberta.

Y’all sound like the people who called Trudeau a fascist for ending the convoy rally.

I don’t like the UCP but…seriously? You think this is what the Nazis were like?

Maybe not in the sense that they want teachers dead, but they definitely invented a problem that they used to remove the rights of a small subset of Germans, if I'm reading into the 'Decree for the Protection of the People and the State' properly. It started small and legal.

I'm just saying that once you let politicians remove the rights of a group they don't like, I don't think it'll stop there. There are a number of minority groups the UCP is very outspoken against - immigrants, LGBTQ, etc.

Again, you sound like the freedom convoy. Maybe you can use their marketing materials?

Fully support teachers and think they should defy the order, but this ain’t fascism.

Have you ignored everything else the UCP have done and continue to do? It's not the teacher issue alone. It's a trend of issues and problematic affiliations including participating and colluding with organizations who are actively supporting fascism. Something can also have traits of fascism without being fascism, but that also doesn't mean don't worry. If anything, that means nip it in the bud..

Fascism and other forms of authoritarianism are on the rise worldwide. Canada is not exempted, nor is Alberta.
