This short video is a perfect illustration of the process.

Hope the EU steps up their help to Ukraine after seeing this.

Fuck Putin and his nasty little friends.

I’d never heard of Easter lamb cakes before, and it’s my sincere hope to never hear of them again after seeing this.

Absolutely agree with your broader point, but I always thought the expression meant “this is the inevitable societal structure that capitalists have worked to achieve,” not “this is the termination point.”

They don’t ignore it, they don’t care.

They think elites should be able to do what they want— reactionary ideology was founded as a monarchical counterrevolutionary movement, and that’s the ideal they’re working backwards to achieve.

Note that this obviously doesn’t apply to elites who aren’t aligned with their movement.

They use rhetoric to divide the opposition and to rally their base; they don’t actually care about coherence.

I think this video should be posted whenever Steven Crowder is mentioned.

Lie with dogs and you’ll wake up with fleas.

He’s the guy who picks his nose and then goes for a handshake to wipe off the boogers.

Under the agreement that it would be there for us though.

I’m glad that people are getting payments, but I want it too; it’s a benefit that we were promised for good reasons.

They’re right to be pissed that they paid into it without getting that benefit.

It’s no coincidence that Republicans hate the same people that the original Nazis did.

Reactionaries always pick sexual, racial, & religious minorities and leftists as their targets.

President Musk did his Nazi salute to signal to far-right groups that they can start dropping the euphemisms, and the fascist Republican party loves him for it.

They made it a campaign issue.

It’s perfectly fair to criticize their unfulfillable promises.

A mandoline slicer makes the chopping much faster if you have one.

I like caraway seeds in mine.

I ferment on the top of my cabinets in a mason jar, then move to the fridge when it starts tasting right.

Silver is traditional in America.

A nationalist, fascist group, the paramilitary Silver Legion wore a uniform modeled after the Nazis’ brown shirts, consisting of a silver shirt with a blue tie, along with a campaign hat and blue corduroy trousers with leggings. The uniform shirts bore a scarlet letter L over the heart, which according to Pelley was “standing for Love, Loyalty, and Liberation.” The blocky slab serif L-emblem was in a typeface similar to the present-day Rockwell Extra Bold. The organizational flag was a plain silver field with a red L in the canton on the upper left hand corner. By 1934, the Legion claimed that it had 15,000 members.
