    so it doesn’t mean anything. glad we agree laws were only ever an excuse, a way to keep the peasantry from banding together to protect their own when men rode in on horseback to take one of theirs, and a way to absolve a parasitic nobleman of his atrocities with a wrist slap, and disperse a crowd of raging peasants like a magic spell.

    see, I remember getting banned on reddit for this several years ago. it was a thing. there was no rule against it; they just decided to. and now they’re actively touching the president’s dick (actual president, the white south african wannabe supervillain with the ketamine addiction, not the mcdonalds guy who technically puts us in the same continuity as the ‘home alone’ movies) which makes them effectively part of the government. and they’re doing censorship of ideas they don’t like. which is on paper supposed to be illegal in the united states. that was what I was getting at.








  • fascism must always create more outsiders, must always create more enemies to keep control, to keep things directed.

    remember, fascism appropriates genuine upset and the fact that to the privileged, equality feels like persecution. it steers itself by creating enemies to hate. remember: people’s lives are genuinely fucking miserable. there is dystopian shit happening. and all of that is really complicated, and if people stopped to think about it for five minutes, they would pull a 1789.

    so they just keep adding more enemies, and more derangements like what the qanons call ‘baking’ but hitler just said was the way everyone should read books, until they live in a totally unhinged fantasy world, and any method of social control must engage with the fantasy.

    tl;dr: sacrificing external allies to fuel a persecution complex, keep control, entrench the madness, keep attention off the american elites that were at least rhetorically some of the initial targets.
