    I guess this is the next logical step to their “Voting for a pro-genocide party is good actually” kind of rhetoric. Ramp up the fearmongering, anyone who isn’t a straight white cis male is an evil enemy of the state.

    It’s kind of wild watching libs in the west go full on fascist in such a short amount of time. I can’t wait for the visiting libs to chime in with their usual smugness mixed with open fascism. “umm acktually sweaty, don’t you know that if we don’t exterminate the untermensch it will mean the end of the white race?”

      It’s bad, folks. Not unexpected, but still really fucking bad.

        Yeah, the speed at which they’ve gone increasingly fash has been terrifying. I expected this sort of level in 2-3 years, with them just giving a vague “well I don’t support the fascists, but they have a right to speak” sort of attitude in the meantime, not being this full on fash so quickly.

      We might actually get to Children of Men before 2026 (when the movie takes place). It’s incredible how that movie was made in 2006 but is so on the nose as to where things have gone, had to have been made by a time traveler.
