I like how he doesn't talk about what the liberals have actually done (or more specifically haven't done) to combat this so-called 'distinct change' on the Right. We've said it again and again, but for a system that is supposedly on the brink of tyranny, they sure are nonchalant about it.

Also, claiming that we are refusing to engage seriously with the fascist argument is hilarious.

Idk, it's mostly just knowing about Heaven's Gate and their idiosyncratic pop culture use, with abit of internet slang. It's just three layers of pop culture, and one layer of UFO death cult culture. I guess I'm so used to it I barely even register it as sub-text. Yikes.

But also, haven't read this one before! Yet another fascinating BMF point, though one I have heard expressed before.

Meh, I always thought everything was pretty straight forward and textual, maybe I misinterpretated it.

The sad part for me is that BMF was always completely legible to me, but I don't think I can cook myself enough to ever actually post like that because I despise obscure jargonism.

Please continue your journey to become whitehat BMF.

Motherfucker, it is hard enough to work and go to school. I don't have to build a fucking governing vision for people, as if Republicans or Democrats actually do that. All I ever ask for these days is some basic fucking stuff, like idk, stop giving weapons to aparthied governments to kill brown people? And you think you can combat the totalitarian privatized neoliberal system of government through votes?

The net cost of running electoral campaigns at a national or even state level is absolutely staggering, costing hundreds of millions of dollars, even for online advertising space. For me 25000 dollars would be a game changer, hell even a thousand dollars would improve my life significantly, millions is out of the question. And this is besides the point that organic online viral campaigns do not have a real statistical affect on American electoral politics, because all the places that used to cater towards that have been astroturfed all to hell. Reddit is basically bot-farmed for foreign affairs. The biggest online organic movement is literally Palestine, and the government reaction has been to BAN TIKTOK. You are acting like it's a level playing field. It is not. We are at a large, intentional, systemic disadvantage, and we don't even have the money to get the ball rolling in the right direction. Mostly we just piss people off who can only hear rhetoric, which, while funny, doesn't actually do anything.

There are no 'populists' you utterly contemptible moron. There are liars for capital and that is it. Stop lecturing me on things you don't even have a basic grasp on.

They're libs though, they will literally just say stuff without considering the implications of what they just said.

It's also clearly escalatating as well, with them blatantly just doing large massacres, without even hinting at 'tactical objectives'.

The best controller I have ever had is a Xbox 360 Pro Wireless controller. I still use that shit for computer stuff and it works so well. XB1 controllers are such crap compared to it. Honestly most gaming peripherals have been getting noticably worse in build quality.

I like the person thinking the 'scratch a liberal' turn of phrase means that liberals don't pursue fascist ends when unscratched.

Especially when, if left unscratched, they will literally scratch themselves!

Again, rhetoric is cheap. But access to spread rhetoric from the media requires money, Money requires you to do things that people with money like, which is at odds with your rhetoric. Rinse and fucking repeat. This isn't hard.

Correct, I will never vote for a far right 'thug' which is why I won't vote for Joe Biden.

Oh no, the happiness wouldn't be yours, it would be mine, because you would be in pain.

You literally do not get it. It's literally confirmation bias for the Dems however you vote. If you give them votes they will think 'hey moving right is clearly working!' if you don't vote for them they think 'well dang we need to move more right!'. They've been doing this song and dance since the 60's, you cannot affect them by voting or participating in their electoral sham.

It'll do more good for you to stick your ballot up your ass. From a utilitarian perspective it will result in a higher net-gain of happiness.
