Sacred enough to be used by Biden as the background for his speech \u2014 lit in dark red and flanked by two United States Marines, sparking so many comparisons to historical and fictional examples of fascism that it was almost too easy to criticize.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tweet\">youtube.com\/channel\/UC_O8r\u2026 &#8220;,&#8221;username&#8221;:&#8221;ighaworth&#8221;,&#8221;name&#8221;:&#8221;Ian Haworth&#8221;,&#8221;date&#8221;:&#8221;Fri Sep 02 02:40:25 +0000 2022&#8243;,&#8221;photos&#8221;:[{&#8220;img_url&#8221;:&#8221;https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/upload\/w_728,c_limit\/l_twitter_play_button_rvaygk,w_120\/bgp7wzvanpmb3w0wnpkl&#8221;,&#8221;link_url&#8221;:&#8221;https:\/\/t.co\/M2sq1LdEsx&#8221;,&#8221;alt_text&#8221;:null}],&#8221;quoted_tweet&#8221;:{},&#8221;retweet_count&#8221;:190,&#8221;like_count&#8221;:511,&#8221;expanded_url&#8221;:{},&#8221;video_url&#8221;:&#8221;https:\/\/video.twimg.com\/ext_tw_video\/1565529882880348166\/pu\/vid\/1280&#215;720\/-uNe_ui2bNZZRf5D.mp4?tag=12&#8243;,&#8221;belowTheFold&#8221;:false}&#8221;><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ighaworth\/status\/1565530054016339968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"tweet-header\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"tweet-user-avatar\" src=\"https:\/\/substackcdn.com\/image\/twitter_name\/w_36\/ighaworth.jpg\" alt=\"Twitter avatar for @ighaworth\" \/><span class=\"tweet-author-name\">Ian Haworth <\/span><span class=\"tweet-author\">@ighaworth<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span>Biden\u2019s speech reminded me of something&#8230;I can\u2019t put my finger on it&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\udd08 Sound on \ud83d\udd08<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe: <\/span><\/a><a class=\"tweet-url\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC_O8rMtOB-3Y5BQIuMo_IJg?sub_confirmation=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">youtube.com\/channel\/UC_O8r\u2026<\/a><span> <\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"tweet-video-wrapper\"><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ighaworth\/status\/1565530054016339968\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"tweet-footer\">\n<p class=\"tweet-date\">September 2nd 2022<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<p><span>But beyond the optics of the speech \u2014 which, don\u2019t get me wrong, were utterly shocking \u2014 it was the <\/span><em>content<\/em><span> of the speech that stunned me.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Biden\u2019s pitch throughout was simple: \u201cequality and democracy are under assault,\u201d and if you are a true patriot, you must rally behind him to defeat the country\u2019s single enemy \u2014 so-called \u201cMAGA Republicans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump and the MAGA Republicans represent an extremism that threatens the very foundations of our republic,\u201d Biden argued about both a man who hasn\u2019t held any political office since January 20, 2021, and of a Republican party that is the minority in both the House and the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMAGA Republicans do not respect the Constitution.\u00a0 They do not believe in the rule of law.\u00a0 They do not recognize the will of the people,\u201d Biden continued, ignoring the fact that he routinely bypasses the rule of law to achieve what he wants, such as \u201cforgiving\u201d student debt without the approval of Congress.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMAGA forces are determined to take this country backwards \u2014 backwards to an America where there is no right to choose, no right to privacy, no right to contraception, no right to marry who you love,\u201d Biden added, again ignoring the fact that he was one of the most vocal anti-abortion members of Congress since about five minutes ago, and once described homosexuals in the military as \u201csecurity risks.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Then, Biden moved on to perhaps the most shameless and hypocritical segment of his speech: the subject of political violence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a nation that rejects violence as a political tool,\u201d Biden mumbled. \u201cWe do not encourage violence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span>OH REALLY? Months of nationwide Democrat-endorsed riots under the banner of Black Lives Matter and Antifa seem like an obvious counter-example, let alone the fact that Biden\u2019s Vice President <\/span><em>fundraised to bail out rioters arrested in the process<\/em><span>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Then, Biden made a comment which is just\u2026historically moronic.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLadies and gentlemen, we can\u2019t be \u2026 pro-insurrectionist and pro-American.\u00a0 They\u2019re incompatible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Standing on the steps of Independence Hall\u2026arguing that it\u2019s un-American to be pro-insurrectionist. George Washington would have a few thoughts about that.<\/p>\n<p>Then, when the arm-waving and fist-banging was done, Biden performed his usual routine of promising that the country is on the brink of an economic boom thanks to his policies, and to end cancer (something he\u2019s been promising for years), before concluding by repeating his standard speech-ending platitudes, such as \u201cWe are the United States of America. The United States of America,\u201d and \u201cDemocracy. Thank you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Now, throughout, Biden tried to argue that he wasn\u2019t labeling every Republican as a \u201cMAGA Republican,\u201d adding \u201cnot every Republican embraces their extreme ideology.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But make no mistake: this speech \u2014 the most divisive speech in modern American history \u2014 was designed to do one thing, and one thing alone: to paper over the widening cracks of Biden\u2019s failure by inventing a scape-goat which poses such a colossal threat to the nation that no other priorities hold any importance.<\/p>\n<p><span>And anyone who disagrees with him in <\/span><em>any<\/em><span> way is part of this scape-goat of \u201cextremism,\u201d another MAGA Republican fascist who must be driven from our society for the sake of democracy itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not with him, you\u2019re against him, and must be defeated.<\/p>\n<p>Who\u2019s the fascist now?<\/p>\n<p><em><span>Follow Ian Haworth on<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/ighaworth\" rel=\"\"> Twitter<\/a><span>, and subscribe to his new show, \u201c<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UC_O8rMtOB-3Y5BQIuMo_IJg\" rel=\"\">Off Limits with Ian Haworth<\/a><span>\u201d.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"subscription-widget-wrap\">\n<div class=\"subscription-widget show-subscribe\">\n<div class=\"preamble\">\n<p>This is a reader-supported publication.
