also while i'm at it -- these dumb assholes have been using the same fascist symbols for 80 years.

i was really into ww2 for a while and read a bunch of books, and i think none of them really got across how silly everything must have sounded on the way up. a bunch of goofy costumes and stupid fatherland speeches until suddenly everyone was getting killed

trump runs facebook ads with red triangles and people are like "you're the dumb one; antifa has two t-shirts on etsy with a red triangle" as if antifa has an official gift shop dept in their decentralized leaderless fight against fascism
imagine doing this at the republican national convention and then saying "it's not a nazi thing, everyone waves like that" and linking to a bunch of still photos
what dorks
