      If the pandemic showed us one thing, then that there are people who will side with death and disease just to own the libs.

        At this rate owning the libs will become the greatest cause of death amongst conservatives. They finally got the message and are trying to do us a favour.

    Batman oppresses crime and everybody thinks he’s cool, I don’t see why oppressing fascists should be any different

      Batman is a billionaire vigilante that destroys half of Gotham every few days. What are you talking about. He would be the first to go full fascist.

        Batman being fascist really depends on whos writing him. In some comics he is a control freak fascist. In some he is barely keeping it together and is just as crazy as those in Arkham asylum. In others he is the shield against the madness of Arkham. In others he is fighting again authoritarian Superman. And in others still he is painting Robin and himself yellow and beating the shit out of Green lantern for some fucking reason.

        I don’t know what my point is beyond Batman can very a lot.

        Any superhero can go full fascist if we think about it. That’s literally the theme of the injustice saga! Superman, the sweetest and most kind of heroes, created a world government ruled only by those who he deemed worthy and started killing anyone “bad”. Any superhero, if mentally challenged enough (for context Superman just had his pregnant wife killed and his city destroyed), can do pretty much that. (That’s also where Batman’s contingency plans come in)

        Can someone explain batman’s appeal? Is it just that he’s so angry and traumatized all the time?

    Sisko punches Nazis every time.

    Which is why Sisko is the best captain and DS9 is the best Trek.

    Also Garak is the best <3

    Being tolerant to intolerance leads to more intolerance. Being intolerant to intolerance does not lead to more intolerance.

    It is not just OK, but necessary to be intolerant towards fascist ideologies.

    “Sorry, I just dont believe your fascist ideologyjshould be exposed to kids, why do you want to groom them?”

    Would using their arguments against them make them angry? I hope so

      It probably would not because they don’t believe in the argument anyway most of the time. They don’t argue in good faith. They use that argument because it’s something we would disagree with, but it’s something they want to do.

      “bad fascist” implies the existence of a good fascist, no? Ahhh, because of the old saying "The only good fascist is a dead fascist.
