Do I sound like I care that Nazis are malding? If so, pardon me. I’m just saying it doesn’t feel like much of a gotcha to say “they’re answering to ‘fascists’!” when they’re rightfully called “fascist” more than their political party nowadays.
sigh
I don’t want to be fair to fascists but the current social context does align leftism with labeling the fascists/GOP as “fascists”.
Similarly to how 15 years ago someone shouting “let’s go, Brandon!” would make you check that hadn’t been teleported into the middle of a little league baseball game versus now where you just check how close the nearest exit is.
It’s kinda “fellow kids” but also a lot people don’t know the rules of the games they play.
This one’s a fascist tho, so fuck them.
…the chicken is literally raw.
I get the “respect partners as people” angle but you have to at least look at the image and the community
Unfortunately there seem to be a not-insignificant number of accelerationist tankies on various instances, so I’m sure fascists habe someone to hold hands with and trash on the rest of the political spectrum.
