    Ah yes, the left is so good at cancelling people. We know this is true because the right wing power players who control all tenants of government go on right wing talk shows (which are still the most popular in America) hosted by cancelled right wing talking heads and tell the right leaning American populace that they have all been cancelled for believing in the majority religion.

        Because the solutions to problems they came up with don’t actually solve anything (deporting immigrants to MAGA, for example). So they have to come up with reasons why things aren’t working, but they don’t want to change the actual systems in place. In their minds, capitalism is fine. It’s the women and minorities who are causing capitalism not to work.

        Since they don’t use material analysis, they inevitably end up creating conspiracies and a web of contradictory lies. “Why are movies so shit? It can’t be because studios only invest billions into what appeals to the largest number of people. Clearly it’s because such and such superhero or actor is black/feeeeemale/gay/supports trans rights/whatever boogeyman and if you point this out, you get canceled!”

        Unironically. The least they can do is let us have our identity as victims.

        We lose. That’s literally all we do. Decades after decades of impotent rage and they haven’t even had a scratch on them.

        If I was a chud, I’d be out there partying. Knowing that I never ever ever have to worry about politics. All my views are extremely popular regardless of any study because I’m “cool”. All that mental energy is freed up knowing I will always get what I want because I’m the universe’s special widdle boy.

        they don’t really have culture. both because they’re white, and because it’s still profitable to put women, gay people, and racial minorities in media.

        give it a few years and a few more horny videogames i guess.

      Each one of us on this site must have singlehandedly committed like 9 genocides in our previous lives for us to have been reincarnated into this universe.

      I was probably fucking Genghis Khan. OP’s right, actually, I’M the mass murderer.

        Unironically. My pet theory is that I was one of Mussolini’s blackshirts in my past life and as the cruelest form of ironic punishment. I was transported in a hellworld where fascism wins and I can’t enjoy it because this time I have morals burned into my brain.

    As if this person wouldn’t jump at a chance to force people to believe what they believe. I know I would and at least I can admit it. Difference is, my views are helpful to others and the planet we live on.

      I don’t even give a shit if my views are helpful to others (they are). I just understand if I didn’t think my views were correct, I should change them. Because I think my views are correct, they should be the default. If I thought my views were wrong, why would I hold onto them?

      Chuds are essentially saying “I know my views are wrong, but I have them anyway. Other people must be doing the same thing, so we should agree to disagree.” They refuse to do the mental work of asking themselves if their thoughts are contradictory.

    Fascist organizations were extremely violent, and used “punitive expeditions” against worker associations and socialists to restore the control of landowners in the countryside. These antisocialist actions gained the approval and support of many conservatives, especially because of the perceived impasse created by Prime Minister Giolitti’s policy of neutrality in labor disputes, which was thought to have strengthened workers and the Socialist Party (De Felice 1966).

    (Source.)

    Furthermore, it has been found that industrialists as well as bankers were over‐represented among [Fascist] élites in the NDB sample. In addition to open [Fascists], many conservative business leaders were sympathizing with the rising fascist movement.

    forbid you have a different opinion

    And what opinion would that be? What opinion are they forbidding?

    When was the LAST time anyone to the left of Hitler ever successfully “cancelled” someone? Every time these overgrown popular kids whine about being cancelled they increase in popularity for conforming to popular opinion?

    What do these dipshits have to whine about? They’re literal superhumans and everyone loves them. It’s like seeing the captain of the football team watch his back out of fear the nerd he’s been bullying will “reverse-bully” him.
