      It’s funny, because the original fascists at least had striking aesthetics. Modern fascists can’t even do that right.

        They really didn’t, a lot of Nazi aesthetics were considered tacky at the time. Modern people think of it as being stylish because we associate it with the era, but for the time stuff like fully black uniforms with a mixture of anachronistic Imperial era and “Germanic” symbols was tacky as fuck.

          That makes a lot of sense, actually. The swastika flag – which puts a symbol that Europeans had mostly used as a good-luck charm on top of a red socialist banner – is pretty tacky when you think about it. Like putting a video game symbol on a flag and then marching around it with it as a serious political statement.
