Nietzsche was pro slavery and Wagner latched onto the protofascist tendencies that existed within lowercase s socialism at the time. The nazis did not have to do much to absorb their legacies, we just choose to ignore this because nobody teaches people about European sympathies for the confederacy or the racialism that existed in Germany before the nazis rose up.

The coalition in Italy failed, the left and the technocrats are discredited and people sense the fin de siecle with every drought and flood. That and the anti African paranoia. Fascism is going to grow there and then take over either France or Spain.

Italy invading Western Libya is going to happen again within the decade. France under Le Pen will probably attack Algeria.

I don’t think that’s the problem per se, liberals just don’t like to admit that fascism is a logical end point of their system and the successful stunting of socialism. That’s why they pretend that it is an aberration and that the imperialist viewpoints of cultural figures are simply misappropriations.

(I could also go into how people who dislike intersectionality tend to ignore the chauvinistic processualism of the old left but that’s another topic)

Okay but who gives a shit? Fascists get to have fun and hobbit larp while nerds beat off to Nixon losing power, probably because he was a bit too good at realpolitik and not good enough at simply stopping when he was ahead.

I refuse to watch any anime made after 2020 except possibly new seasons of one punch man.

I want to sympathize with the protestors in Iran but Reddit has already started to act as though the exiled shah will lead the next regime.

It’s more about Kurds and the urban bourgeoisie than any actual struggle for freedom. With that said, religion bad. Please ignore that we had our own vice squads in the 1900s

Counterpoint: the art market is bourgeois and overpriced. Fuck the graphic designers, I don’t care about your degree in fine art, I like dicking around with making stuff on tuesdays and may get good at it if you keep whining

Program will win, don’t make me filter it through another system then break out the photoshop. Once these things can have vector edits, the robots will have won. Seize the means of expression.
