Truly a thread of all time.
We have reached the stage where liberals don’t just want to adopt fascist policies, but also fascist aesthetics.
“The method of winning more elections in the future is to alienate even more voters next time round!”
I’m regime-pilled.
I’m on my authoritarianism arc.
I’m strongman-maxxing.I’m on my authoritarianism arc.
I love how even they are literally like “let’s be authoritarian” they don’t understand the actual purpose of “authoritarian” policies (peaceful means can’t achieve some ends). They just want to copy the aesthetic to … I guess stop feeling like losers?
They still hate the soviets for being 1948 evul authoritarianism though - cant have that
Dios mío! (Draws a cross.) A LIBERAL!
If we’re talking in a Juche context, hell yeah.
a lot of people yearn to be part of something greater
Ok that makes sense
they crave community
Preaching to the choir.
therefore, let’s sugar coat everything in fascism so as not to intimidate those dumb working class rubes that need racism in their political , unlike us, the enlightened political class, that can understand high falutin’ ideas like “it’s bad to be ontologically evil.”
Oh come the fuck on!
You can never be too harsh on liberals, they will only get worse with time.
r/neoliberal
Anyone who willingly supports the eugenic genocidal ideology of neoliberalism is evil. They deserve the same harshness as fascists because thats who they really are behind all facades of phony progressivism and “freedom”.
Neither horseshoe theory nor fishhook theory are real because the radical left, center, and right have all convergently developed regime æsthetic at some point.
People yearn for the state
I mean wasnt that what the Dark Brandon memes were trying to do. Guess it doesnt work out when your leader is an 82 year old man with dementia.
Imagine seeing all the grouper bullshit and thinking “wow, so cool, I want this for my ideology”
Wait so now it’s okay to be a tankie? Make up your minds!
There is no way to reclaim the flag for “quiet dignified West Wing patriotism” when it’s sold as a bumper sticker, used in advertisements, and adorning a cross. That ship sailed. It’s garish, brash, loud, and stupid.
You really want to try to compete with for garish, brash, loud, and stupid? He’ll win every goddamn time.
That picture is from the 1964 DNC, less than a year after JFK’s assassination. It does not strike me as authoritarian or “regime-pilled” to have large images of your candidate’s face at the DNC or RNC. It seems like basic stuff you would do if you were trying to win elections in a democracy.
