Since it’s hellworld, I’m sure the answer will be no but…is it irrational to ask ourselves whether their complete mask off moment is happening a bit too quickly?

Material conditions are getting worse, make no mistake. Capitalism is due for a catastrophic event. But, we’re kind of not there yet, and the chuds are making such a big stink about being the catalysts for this once in a generation ™ extinction event in capitalism. And the amount of poo, So much poo, they throw it everywhere and they do it so loudly that even the most politically unaware are made aware of their pant shitting wrecking this paper tiger of an economy.

So that combined with all the flat out fucking weird and supremely distasteful shit they’re doing and saying makes me feel like they’re overplaying their hand. Atp they just have to kill all of us because i can’t imagine they’re not turning off a lot of normies

I dunno, there’s a lot of people who are pretty content with being bigoted through some veil of propriety, don’t think they want to fight on the kkk frontlines and be confronted for it. But I’m probably being extremely hopeful.

    Well, the American right is not really a unified block with common material interests, but a hodgepodge mix of QAnon conspiracy theorists, cultural warriors, neoconservatives, Christian Nationalists, corporatists, etc. It’s no surprise that as a whole they are self-sabotaging and dysfunctional. The big surprise really was that Trump was able to hold all of them together for so long, but even that looks increasingly untenable as his popularity wanes.

      Don’t forget neo-nazi reactionaries, KKK guys (Venn diagram overlap, but still separate groups), nazbols, groipers, Yarvinists, etc. It’s a long-running joke that the left is so dis-unified because of all the disparate ideologies, but holy fuck. At least leftist are striving for the same goals, even if they disagree about the route to get there. The US right is such a fucking mess it’s not even comparable.

        Right wing struggle sessions be like: “Is it ok to be a white nationalist and have an Asian wife?”

              “Stupid three-point sling! How dare you defy me! I’ll kill you you stupid f----- fuck! How fucking dare you?! I will kill you then burn you to the ground then piss on your ashes, motherfucker!!!” *gunshot inside car sound* *absolute silence*

              Edit: Didn’t seem convincingly white nationalist enough. Fixed now, unfortunately. I hate that I can channel that.

      We need to find the rightoid sin eater. The least popular link of the right and mercilessly attack it and claim every single rightoid is like this, no exceptions. What are they going to do, complain we’re unfairly dismissing them all for superficial reasons?
