He's clearly insane, but you're right, it's still interesting how his "logic" works.
It's scary that these psychos think violence is the answer to their perceived problems. There's a line from The Boys that talks about this, I'm paraphrasing: they would rather see themselves as warriors against "secret forces of evil" than the lonely forgettable losers they are.
It's even more frightening to me that they live in some fantasy world where they think they can win a race war. Nobody here would win that. We'd all lose, and some other hostile nation would take full advantage of our domestic self-destruction. I'm worried it's not a fringe notion. I'm worried a significant percentage are deluding themselves along these lines of violent planning.
As corny as it sounds...United We Stand, Divided We Fall...is still true.
Tried to find the quote or the episode, but couldn’t. That’s a good line, nonetheless.
S04E02, ~33min into episode. Conversation between Firecracker and Sister Sage.
Firecracker:
Didn’t realize it’s the new episodes, can’t fall behind even a couple days lol.
Thank you!
The right wing fantasy that you can murder your way to a just and harmonious society
They've been radicalised to become extremists. It can happen to anybody. It's easier with badly educated people. In fact, a lot of Lemmy users are on their way as well.
"Extremist" is a pointless word in this context. Who's not extreme about something that matters, like human rights? That doesn't make a person the same as a white supremacist just because they have a firm conviction.
Too bad you guys are so divided then.
