yea yea sure they aren't. I lived most of my life in other places with similar shit shows and the abundance of "now they have crossed the line" or "now they are fucked" news never ceases in such scenarios. And they can go on for decades without causing any problems to fascism. To this day I don't know if they exists because they help people cope or they are a part of the shitshow itself so that people don't lose all hope and run away or descend into complete rioting. Probably mix of both.
