you could do that on windows. no longer.

linux is fine, just don’t sudo under the influence.

no, it makes sense. devaluing human life, and spreading the idea that sometimes the weak just die, with nothing anyone can do about it, is very much something they want to do. plus, burying your children is one hell of a sunk cost.

that’s not to say she’s cognitively functional, but that’s why her masters won’t put their foot down.

proudly so, even.

what does ‘left’ mean to you, dear nazi?

maybe we should, like, do something about that?

i mean, right now the question isn’t ‘violence’ it’s ‘against whom’. we fucked up all the futures that weren’t a river of blood. the fascism, the horrors, the manufactured consent and insane obedience. the question isn’t “river of blood or not” it’s “whose, and how deep?”

I personally would prefer as little as possible and none of it mine, but apparently wars where millions of conscripts die are more ethical than the assassinations of the couple dozen leaders that start them and manufacture consent to keep them going. letting people be disappeared is more ethical than stopping it. letting people die of poverty on the street is more ethical than breaking the locks on dumpsters to feed them, or putting them in vacant/airBNB’d houses.

silver lining: it is at least gonna be really fucking metal. so we’ve got at least that to look forward to.

yeah. letting any SS officer survive world war two was what caused this shit. letting any confederate officer survive is what got us that shit.

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.
