Fair chance it’s because the Imperial States of America is a far-right fascist nation?
He’s not. Only about a third of America are MAGA, they just make a LOT of noise. They can elevate him to martyr status in their own little alternative reality universe, but the ACTUAL reality that 2/3 of America, and the rest of the world, and the entire rest of the universe lives in, is under no obligation to indulge their perverse little fantasies.
Because the fascists needed of a martyr.
because white supremacist Christian nationalism is being ushered in via far-right populist rhetoric. fascism is utilizing the angry and bigoted, the angry and misguided, and the angry and fearful.
Might I add the angry and uneducated.
And the “resistance” is doing fuck all
it does feel that way. i hope i’m merely unaware of something that is being orchestrated.
Nothing is being orchestrated. The “left” is sitting comfortably at home, posting on Lemmy and Reddit about how upset they are, then planning their weekend activities.
Well, partly true. For example, this week I spent planning a weekend range trip for myself, and several comrades. There will be a stop the bleed class hosted at the beginning of it, before pew pews start.
Next weekend, planning a comrade and camping trip, where we will get to practice things like unit movement tactics (For hunting, of course!), living communally, and prepping a parcel of land for the possible need to house several dozens of people for an extended period.
This is deffo what it feels like but that’s because no plan worth its shit is gonna get talked about anywhere on the internet. It’s gonna happen between people irl in the backs of coffee shops and shit.
i understand your confidence in your pessimism here but i’m holding out hope, i guess. a form of self-defense on my part, perhaps lol.
The revolution will not be televised. It won’t be on the Internet either.
Not least of all because it doesn’t exist
Nailed it!
He gets the Horst Wessel treatment
Came here to say this. Fascists need a martyr & will make one if necessary.
Horst Carotid-Wessel.
Thanks for sharing this! More people need to learn this history, especially now.
Another strip, on how fascists manufacture create fake crises as excuses for their seizure of more power, would also be instructive.
Just another of many, many parallels the path we’re on has to Nazi and pre-Nazi Germany.
Chicken or the egg?
Most of Hitler’s inspiration came from US policy.
Because the rest of you ALLOWED IT.
Because everything is stupid in this timeline?
Good for business that’s why
