    Well put. Even the memes are a part of it. Like that with each meme comes some kind of victory over the fascists.

    But, one thing I think you are wrong is that fascists don’t reject reality. They know what the deal is, but this is the way they communicate, the way they express allegiance, the way they recognize each other. They will publicly support an obvious lie, be proud of it, no amount of YouTube videos how some journalists EVISCERATES them in an interview will help. Thats how they show how strongly they support the leader, how much they are willing to take. And the soldiers, the gestapo is there to use violence. They have to do it, thats why they exist. They have to show the population that they can do anything, beat up people, murder them in public view and take no consequences. That was always going to happen. Lies that they say on tv after are supposed to be blatant, stupid, easily to see through. That’s the point, to show to the people, it doesn’t matter what truth is, it only matters what they say. Until they say something else.

    And everybody is going along with it.

    The only thing missing now is cancellation of elections or more likely, just a complete fabrication of results. Again, it won’t matter that the fabrication will be obvious, clear to everyone, that will be by design, that will be the point.
