Even if this take wasn’t reductive and worthless, guess what, “fascism” is too abstract an issue to count on the majority of voters to go to the polls for. This is an unavoidable material reality. But you don’t want to work around it, you just want to spur a circle jerk among you and your hivemind followers about how you “get it” and others don’t and you all are the prescient and astute trapped in a world of intellectual lessers.

Fucking morons, I totally get why people go post left if their parents and social circles were all people who talked to each other like this. If you want to call someone stupid and myopic just say that shit, don’t pride yourself on avoiding negative politics then do this grating snark bullshit instead.

    My go-to these days is to put on my best “just fell off the turnip truck” voice and ask “Fascism? What’s that? I’ve never heard of it.” And then just keep asking basic materialist questions in response to the Narnia-ass vibes based speech you’ll get in return until the other person has angrily demonstrated a total void of knowledge about what fascism is.
