The mailers didn't "go out". They were sent out by Austin Lee, the apparent president of the Tennessee Maury County Young Republicans chapter, that uses the slogan “Save White America."
https://www.rawstory.com/tennessee-republicans-2677083276/
"In one mailer, Lee calls for local residents to join the Maury County Young Republicans to help halt “wars for Jews,” place “men in charge,” work to “expel the invader,” and “stop the Great Replacement,” a far-right theory that suggests powerful figures are enacting immigration policies to purposely shrink and “replace” the white population.
In another mailer, Lee urged his “fellow American patriots” to “solve” the “problem” of “nonwhite foreigners” who had “invaded our country and are replacing White Americans.”"
#ABC viewers across the country are getting a message from the network—If you like your #local stations, or #TheView, help us get the #government off our backs.
ABC on Monday launched an on-air campaign asking viewers to send comments to the #FCC’s website pushing back on the agency & its chairman, #BrendanCarr.

Since February, the #FCC has been investigating whether ABC’s #TheView violated the commission’s equal-time rule, which guarantees equal airtime to all candidates running for the same public office. #ABC has maintained that “The View” qualifies as what the commission calls a “bona fide” news program & is exempt from the rule, accusing the FCC of violating the #FirstAmendment in a legal filing.

Also, I think this is the closest I've heard @pluralistic get to the point I have repeatedly tried to make: That a system where The People™️ have a say in not getting treated as slaves or objects is what humanity put in place of dragging the rich out into the street & beating them to death while their property burns every couple of generations.
It's called civilization & the broligarchy is tearing it apart. On purpose.
In the Soviet union the citizens are monitored constantly. USA is headed or already this is being done we do not know the whole extent. Flock cameras monitoring vehicles movements. Credit card’s tracking your purchases & locations. New automobile’s computers keeping track. Even the city’s are getting CCTV coverage. Facial recognition software is everywhere. Privacy is a joke on the internet. How does this feel America? The new USA is scary. #USA #surveillance #fascism #America #american #privacy

A majority of Americans view President Donald Trump as a "dangerous dictator" whose power should be constrained, according to a poll that found a notable increase in that sentiment since March.

Say NO to separation but most importantly, give a resounding NO to racist anti-immigrant rhetoric to deny basic care and societal inclusion of newcomers!
I can't stress this enough. They're all interconnected but separation ia a distraction from their more direct divisive politics. If Alberta separates then exclusive hate will rule in a new nation, but in the much more likely scenario that we don't separate, they will win anyways if they turn our Alberta into the one they wanted to create.

Christian Nationalism is Roman Constantinian Idolatry
This political idolatry of 'Christian Nationalism' is not new. Only the wide perception of it is new due to everyone now being plugged into the Internet via their ever-present phones and tablets.
In the 1600s through the 1800s we see the political idolatry was at fever pitch and full swing, giving a host of politically-oriented cults, such as Witch-burning Puritanism, Swedenborgianism, Mormonism, Seventh-Day Adventism, etcetera. Even the Anglican church is an Imperialist political cult and has no warrant or sanction in the Holy Scriptures. It is a 'nationalist' tyranny over the mind. And then we see Islam, which Christians mistakenly believe to be a non-Christian religion. Islam is a Christian heresy, founded by heretical Catholics. Even the name, "Mohammed" is a corruption of the earlier Arabic, "Mahmed" meaning, "Messiah". Islam is an offshoot of medieval Christianity with its Saturn idolatry gone to seed. Islam is a daughter of Babylon, the Judeo-Roman prostitute.
Christianity has always been a politically idolatrous cult. For instance, The council of Nicea was convened by the Apollo-worshiping, Luciferian Emperor Constantine for nefarious and ungodly political purposes. Every bishop who was a political apparatchik showed up, ironing out a fascist version of Christianity that was forced on the empire by the sword for centuries.
The luciferians try to repeat this in every generation in which it looks like Christians will flee the Church plantation for the true body of Christ outside the Church.
Remember, the outer sea court of the temple was for the Gentiles (nations). The kingdom was removed from the inner court and given to them without. Christian authoritarians still have not recognized this.
If you want to advocate for a more biblical and faithful version of Christianity you need to leave behind the Imperial leadership model of the Church. The Apostles and the Reformers warned us about the man of sin sitting in the chair of the bishopric building his tower of Babel using the people (laity) as their bricks.
This thing commonly called, 'Christianity' is the backsliding idol worship of Israel in the Old Testament, brought to life in our current age. Jesus Christ is not a Christian. The Apostles of the Lamb are not Christians. Neither Jesus, nor the Apostles, nor the Prophets would recognize Christianity as legitimate. The sum of all their teachings mark Christianity as an impostor religion of idolatrous customs trading darkness for light.
There is no municipal kingdom of heaven. The kingdom of God cannot be brought about by the force of arms of mortal men. It comes by the Spirit of the Lord, not by the spirit of the world. Everyone pretending to build God's kingdom by inveigling, shaming, brow-beating, force, intimidation, fear-mongering, or authoritarianism, or civil government sanction, is an anti-christ, no matter how much they pretend to worship the Father and the Son and no matter how many zillions of times they claim their names.
In the Old Testament the Father prophesied to us the rise of the Christian world empire and its eventual destruction in the turning of the ages ahead. The Imperialist Christian cult likes to distract from its own wickedness by pretending Islam is the scapegoat, or by pretending Jews are the scapegoat. It might work for a time for their politics but God the Father is not fooled.
"And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities. ..... How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her."
The 'she' is the Christian Church. She is the harlot Babylon with her many Church babies, a true mother of political prostitutes and abominations of the earth. The Christian church glorifies herself and her system of bishopric authority instead of glorifying the simple gospel of Jesus Christ. Christianity is a machine for perpetuating its own system instead of setting the spiritual captives free.
We can truthfully say to the Christian Church what Christ said to the Scribes and Pharisees of ancient Judea:
"But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, And love the uppermost rooms at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues, And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi. But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren. And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven."
In this age the first Adam who fell is the Church, the continuation of temple idolatry on life support. The second Adam who rises is Christ, or Jacob, who will supplant the first Adam as Jacob supplanted Esau in the birthright, as Jacob crossed his arms to swap the birthrights of Ephraim and Manasseh, as Isaac supplanted Ishmael, even as Paul the Apostle told us plainly. God has repeatedly told us how this Christian empire will be supplanted by Jesus Christ in the last days, yet Christians do not see what is plain in the scripture because they want political and spiritual power over other men, rather than being like Christ and humbly desiring to be a servant of servants for the love of God rather than recognition of position.
We learn from the Bible that God doesn't value man's concept of the birthright of authority, and freely supplants the older with the younger, even as he will supplant the older religious and Christian empire of the world with the younger Jesus of Nazareth.

On why and when Hitler was admired within the Zionist right
The Zionist Revisionist movement, known for its advocacy of forceful action to achieve its goals (i.e., colonizing Palestine at any cost preferably with Britain as an ally), has, at times, been susceptible to the perceived 'strength and decisiveness' of the Nazi regime. The Nazis’ willingness to use force to achieve their objectives resonated with some. But to what extent?
Historian Amir Goldstein explores the significant (though ultimately contained,) attraction of a "maximalist faction" within the Revisionist movement to fascism and, to a degree, Nazism, which was largely spearheaded by the influential figure of Abba Ahimeir.
Emerging in the late 1920s, this faction grew out of a core group of individuals who had previously been involved in the labor movement and became disillusioned with its perceived shortcomings. Unlike the more "moderate" Revisionists, they rejected the idea of the movement as merely an opposition party to mainstream political leadership within the Zionist movement, and strongly supported Vladimir Jabotinsky’s drive to separate from the Zionist organization. However, they sharply diverged from Jabotinsky’s vision in crucial ways
Central to this faction was Abba Ahimeir, who expressed deep dissatisfaction with democracy, viewing it as a "parliamentary patter," "spoiled liberalism," and "coddling" – terms he used to dismiss what he saw as the ineffectiveness of democratic principles. He actively sought a more forceful and centralized model of leadership, drawn to the perceived power and effectiveness of fascism. The rise of fascism in Europe had a profound appeal to Ahimeir and his circle. They admired how fascist movements could generate momentum, mobilize mass support, seize political institutions, and establish authoritarian regimes that effectively dismantled opposing political forces.
Ahimeir became a key advocate for this shift within the Revisionist movement. He openly embraced a "national dictatorship" as a path to achieving a Jewish state and frequently invoked the leadership styles of figures like Mussolini as examples to emulate. He even referred to Jabotinsky as "the Duce" and actively sought to build paramilitary forces within the movement, modeled on fascist organizations. This involved encouraging a culture of forceful action and openly rejecting the emphasis on democratic values championed by Jabotinsky.
While the maximalist faction, with Ahimeir at its core, briefly gained influence, Jabotinsky’s strong opposition ultimately prevented the movement from fully embracing fascist ideals. The assassination of Chaim Arlozorov further complicated the situation, with rumors and accusations linking Revisionist extremists to the act, damaging the movement's reputation.
[...] At this stage, the Nazi anti-semitism was not perceived by the radical right circles as sufficient reason to condemn Nazism as a phenomenon in its entirety. In the movement’s newspaper, Hazit HaAm, (חזית העם) the writings of maximalist lawyer Zvi Eliyahu Cohen appeared, among others: ‘Had Hitler not been anti-Semitic, we would not have opposed his ideology. Hitler saved Germany.’ In another article, just weeks after Hitler’s rise to power, it was written there: ‘The socialists and democrats of all stripes believe that the Hitler movement is merely a shell. And we believe there is both a shell and a core. The anti-Semitic shell must be discarded, but not the anti-Marxist core within.’"
Although the flirtation with fascism remained a contained phenomenon, the story of Abba Ahimeir and his circle reveals an undercurrent within early Zionist thought, more relevant than ever today.

Amir Goldstein is a historian from Tel Hai College (an institution under development). The article is based, among other things, on the research of pioneers in the study of Zionist revisionism: Joseph Heller, Yitzhak Weitz, Aryeh Naor, Eran Kaplan, Jacob Shavit, and Colin Schindler.
