what’s the word for a thing that worms its way into your life, makes you depend on it, then uses that to exploit and damage you?

there’s a word for that.

I think he is, unfortunately. he’s just mask-off about it.

well, just as bad as. these guys definitely hate sanger and mao worse than hitler, and they’re both lower.

I had friends he called in the national guard on, when they were upset about their friends being murdered so much by fuckers on his payroll, to assist aforementioned fuckers on his payroll. I don’t give a shit if he’s charming. he opted out.

a lib once compared it to the man/bear discourse from I think twitter a while back. the one that got all the idiot dudes super angry?

tried to say trump was the man, and we should vote for the lesser evil, joe biden, the bear.

I explained that she must’ve forgotten what that shit was about. trump was the bear.

your mom. only she gets to have it. it’s only about her. all hail yeetpics’ mother, first of her name!

it WAS dealt with pretty quick, but yeah I bet it’s still pretty absurd, even if they at least ask… some questions?

or the fascists lose electoralism, and get the office anyway, because the left isn’t big enough to fight them and the libs are happy to just let them.

and yeah the weird gaslighting ratchet effect ‘im going to do the exact same thing the last guy did but libs are going to yell at you for not sucking my dick about it now’ is not cool

also, you know, when they do riots to get their way. sometimes in an election.

yes but that’s not how they wrote it, because christians wouldn’t be christians if they were properly literate.

okay but these fucking cultists have got away with much worse pretty regularly, and I expect this one to get away with this, so im still going to argue for my constitutional right (though not necessarily ability) to shoot up a church without imposed consequences.

basic state logic.

they’re incapable of sucking less. their whole episteme is about centralizing, about reducing thought the farther it gets from the central authority (whether that’s one guy, a class, or a building like the pentagon), but you CAN increase violence, threaten, flatten, disable, basically wherever.

for several years in the early 00’s, the process for getting security clearance involved no background check, just knowing who to ask. they literally rubber stamped it.

getting a fed job or something still did, but just security clearance, on its own, for anyone? just ask. not even nicely.

of course.

zip ties, the metal reinforced ones are called wire cuffs. get used a lot at protests and other mass arrests, too.

pretty sure it;'s not the voting.

pretty sure it’s everything OTHER than the voting that gets them what they want. and the liberals refusing to let anyone stop them.

you’ll notice that even when a fascist loses an election, like in 2000, they still get their guy in office sometimes.

I would argue on necessary, but it’s probably less work to just do it.

voting without a coherent strategy, and voting for the fucking dems in a national race though; that’s clown shit.

have you heard of ‘hinduism’? pretty sure this is just, like, cannon.

now if you really want to go nuts with it, find a hindu community in mexico.

I think the greeks may have also had something like this but it was kinda cringe if it happened.

okay but without fear isn’t there no morality? and, like, if nobody’s suffering, is there really such a thing as justice? if there’s not at least one child in a basement being tortured and treated like dirt, can you even call it a society? I mean, obviously the optimal number of people being horrible tortured in society is “everyone but me, in the sickest ways I can imagine”, but, y’know, progress is progress

-every fascist

I feel like, the modern approach, if one reads the bible, believes it, and isn’t a sick perv or completely nuts, is misotheism.

okay but it’s cool for me to not hate evil, right?
