Good short-term cure for acute fascists, but the long-term cure for fascism is to run society so the vast majority of people are very happy.
Even with growing disparity between the ultra wealthy and regular people most people in developed countries still score very highly for human development with a lot of freedoms, access to health, education and live reasonably prosperous lives by historical standards.
Its been a long time since most of us saw widespread famine or war or plagues decimating our populations. There is good reason to demand more social and economic progress which you would think would increase the appeal of that and not the politics of self destruction. There is no sane reason to burn it all down for most people.
Yet fascism still seems to be in a massive resurgence. Something really odd is happening. There is a huge information war that has seriously undermined society. It has taken over many religious groups, outsider groups like conspiracy believers and alt health, and conservative leaning parties. It is in online gaming and image boards and normie social media. It preys on social immature males appealing to their insecurities. It preys on people looking for spiritual connections and community. Seeing peace and love hippies standing side by side with Christians and full on Nazis is fucking weird but I saw it during COVID.
The fascists were always there but they were not a political force and there is no reason they should ever be again. Not sure why it is happening or why we are letting it happen. It is certainly not in our interests. It always ends badly.
What video is this from?
Debbie does Dallas
“It is an amazingly simple device. An idiot can operate it, and indeed, many do.”
Just because many idiots operate it doesn’t mean everyone who uses it is an idiot. Tell me again, how did the Nazi regime collapse in the 40s?
You realized they just posted the full quote of what Hitchcock was saying and you’re arguing it when you posted the image it was based on?
Idiots and operating things is right.
So brainrotten, you dont even understand who your allies and enemies are.
🤓👆
Why do you even post a meme when you’re going to do this to people who literally showed up here to agree with you
Villain is literally in his name
I thought it was the other guy at first who posted the same thing in disagreement and I’m at work doing other things. I can post whatever I want lol who cares. Also I didn’t disagree with anyone, just asked a question and got accusations and called brainrot. Imagine the brainrot of using moronic internet speak. That person is a hostile nerd regardless of what they think lol.
I don’t think you should operate a keyboard, but obviously you do.
Why would I care what you think?
You just asked them a question…
Lol at this fragility
Guns are ubiquitous because idiots can operate them. Many of the guys who took down Hitler were dummies.
nooo we have to debate them in the marketplace of ideas and then ultimately let them win 😭😭😭
Point of order. How many applications of cure has Alfred Hitchcock personally administered?
From his Wikipedia page
Hitchcock was too young to enlist when the First World War started in July 1914, and when he reached the required age of 18 in 1917, he received a C3 classification (“free from serious organic disease, able to stand service conditions in garrisons at home … only suitable for sedentary work”).[37] He joined a cadet regiment of the Royal Engineers and took part in theoretical briefings, weekend drills and exercises. John Russell Taylor wrote that, in one session of practical exercises in Hyde Park, Hitchcock was required to wear puttees. He could never master wrapping them around his legs, and they repeatedly fell down around his ankles.
So, none.

It’s not weed in that bong is it
@hamid incidentally, it’s also the cure for Marxism
🙄
You should really consider your values and priorities if your first reaction to an post against fascists is to deflect to a different group. Maybe you should ask yourself why you felt the need to shift people‘s attention away from fascism. Maybe you should reevaluate a lot of things.
Once idiots start talking about murder, I don’t care who they’re threatening. Stop jerking off to threats of violence.
Personally, I’m jerking off to Alfred Hitchcock
do you have the same choice words for the person who’s saying we should do this to Marxists instead? Or is it just because you want to protect fascists? Sure feel singled out here. Not to mention misrepresented. I think you’re making a lot of assumptions.
If they had started it I would. But they didn’t.
What a lame excuse. So you’re cool with killing one ideological group but not another. Very cool, very consistent. You make a great Republican.
Nope. I’m against murdering anybody, and you’re a right wing troll undermining leftists.
You’re defending someone advocating murdering Leftists on a post talking about the necessity of violence against Nazis.
Clear projection here.
Then say it. Go lecture the other guy. Show how passionate you are.
Oh wait, you’re fine with him.
Liberals are always the first to come to defend the fascists! It’s always funny to see. An ironic kind of funny at least.
Your comment history reads like a broken record
Not my fault if liberals are blind to fascism since forever, and fighting the left instead. Like a fucking nazi is in the US government but liberals are still doing propaganda about tiananmen. They’re collaborators if you ask me.
Oh yeah, because the Nazis gracefully stepped down from power
They stepped into power using violence, just like you’re glorifying here.
Honestly you’re probably CIA trying to make leftists look like violent idiots. You’re not helping.
They were stopped by the Communists using the power of violence as well. If you have a genocidal group of fascists, asking them nicely to stop has never worked
You just like violence, no matter who is doing it.
Actually, I abhor violence. However, violence is a necessary tool against fascism, and to topple the violent system of Capitalism itself. You can’t ask Nazis to stop nicely, nor can you ask the brutal system of Imperialism to stop either.
🙄
Is a slave that kills their slaver in the wrong just because they used violence? Obviously not, they are justified, your reasoning is just dumb.
@LandedGentry there’s a fuckton more Marxists in America than fascists. Trump supporters aren’t fascist by nature. Sorry not sorry
America? Who said anything about America?
There is only one country is this fucking world?
@ZeroHora you’re right. ahem. There’s a fuckton of authoritarian regimes that use Marxism as an excuse to rob their people and burden them with egregious regulation.
noauthority.social
Got it
There it is - so the issue is it struck a nerve.
You need to ask yourself why you immediately associated “fascists” with “Trump.” This is a post on “no authority.” The US and Trump are not mentioned anywhere. Maybe your conscience is trying to tell you something.
Least delusional ancap lmao
The cure for Marxism is fascism, it’s the very reason why it exists.
Gotta a simple question for you, I’m sure even someone of your abilities could truthfully answer.
Who is in power currently, the marxists or the fascists?
Bonus points if you can correctly identify a seig heil salute.
@Captainvaqina The Marxists are gradually losing power. And you’re a fucking idiot.
Real rich coming from an ancap. Anti-communism is fascism. You’re simply on the picture and you don’t link it.
Rectally works best
Things that would garner negative attention today, but that were still pretty cool way back when.
We have better applicators now that can cure a plethora of fascists in one swift move.
Medical technology sure has come a long way. I cant imagine why anyone would be doubtful of it
The real quote where he mocks violent idiots (after presenting it as a cure for insomnia):
Oh my god, it is almost like people use memes to communicate ideas that are different than the original source.
Not all violence is equal. The only way to stop a Nazi is to bash them. If you deny that, you’re a liberal which is a fascist collaborator. You’re going to sleep walk your way into Nazism.
You’re a right wing troll undermining the leftist message.
If you think nonviolence is core to the left wing, you need to go ahead and find a nice subreddit to join. Liberals aren’t left wing.
Liberals are left wing and theyre only non violent when its unnecessary
Nice deflection. Nothing about leftism or anarchism involves eschewing violence. Read some fucking theory lib. You’re spewing liberal bullshit designed to empower fascists. You have to fight to win, so you’ve already lost, loser.
You’re a right wing troll.
You came out swinging defending someone suggesting we murder leftists in response to a meme talking about the necessity of armed resistance against fascism.
Nope. You don’t even believe that. Your CIA handler told you to pretend to believe it.
The person you were defending outright suggested this meme, violence as a measure to stop fascism, be extended to Leftists. What did you mean to do?
You’re a liberal troll

I’m a right wing troll because I want to… checks notes: protect myself, my family and my community against fascists and right wingers.
I always love these “conversations”.
You want to achieve 80% of the same things I do, but you’re non violent so fuck you LiB!!
The only way to stop a Nazi is to bash them.
There’s another, more effective and less violent and non-solipsistic way. A great deal of the power of fascism stems from their economic position. Guys like Zuck and Elon are dangerous because of their enormous wealth, not merely because of their toxic political views.
And since you can’t just Luigi Mangione the problem of economic elitism, you need collective action at an economic level to starve out the beast.
Incidentally, the “starve the beast” strategy is a conservative approach historically espoused and employed by Grover Norquist, Tom DeLay, and now (via the guise of DEI) Bill Ackman, Peter Thiel, and Donald Trump. Its incredibly effective, because it eliminates the ability of the opposition to effectively organize and administer large groups of professionals.
Plenty of broke Nazis out there…
They’re not the ones in the White House flipping switches
The shitstain Stewart Rhodes lost his eyeball when he attempted to clean a loaded pistol. Yep, there are dumb fucking idiots with guns.
My wife shot herself in the eye with a confetti cap gun last night trying to see if it was loaded. She literally pointed it at her face and pulled the trigger.
Who is more fascist? 🤣
"Apply directly to the forehead. "
