ah, so, apparently, fascism is caused by decades of sexual oppression, denial, and self-hatred erupting and being directed outward at others.
this would be far more interesting if it didn’t also mean the downfall of democracy.
I just listened to a Behind the Bastards episode where basically…yeah, that’s been the prevailing theory.
Nazis should literally go fuck themselves
Yep, no one else will.
Obviously, I’m both being sarcastic and massively oversimplifying things. This is just one tiny splinter of the cause of fascism, not the entirety of it.
It’s all about sex, Freud was right. Even if not the homosexuality then about immigrants taking ‘our women’. It’s all because we have monkey brains
Can you remember which episode? Sounds interesting but I can’t remember if I’ve heard it yet :)
Thanks!
That’s a part of it for sure but there’s a lot more going on also:
That was both unexpected and enjoyable!
Wait hold on
Why would cucks bother them? Isn’t that like a conservative thing?
Am I seriously missing something here?
Honestly, I’m even more confused now. White supremacists were using it against “RINOs”
The original insult makes sense in that context (man who’s spouse is unfaithful), but in this diagram it was listed with oppression of identity and sexuality. The only way my brain seems to interpret that is by assuming the word is used in its fetish form which makes even less sense to me
In the diagram you can substitute that word for any non-mainstream sexual or gender thing. It really doesn’t matter what - they’ll scapegoat anything as long as it’s a minority, elicits disgust from the in-crowd and reinforces any of the things it connects to with dashed lines.
Pedophilia is a good one because it relates to ‘defending women & children’, makes the enemy look weak, causes sexual anxiety and elicits [disgust](https://www.ecosia.org/search?q=conservatives disgust morality&addon=firefox&addonversion=4.1.2&method=topbar). Hence ‘[Save the children](https://duckduckgo.com/?q=qanon %27save the children%27&t=h_&ia=web)’ and all that.
The diagram maps the *conceptual* framework behind it all - it’s best not to get too literal about any of the individual words.
Ok. That makes a whole lot more sense

Genuinely wonder if there’s some correlation in there. It’d be fascinating if global acceptance of homosexuality would eliminate fascist tendencies. I’d watch that movie.
And coke and meth.
Mostly meth. Have you seen these people?
I’ll never understand it. Just put on sunglasses and a hat and go check out Pride once. Watch gay people be out and proud and happy and accepting.
If you’re a Republican politician and you admit you’re queer, that huge, reliable network of evangelicals you built up will drop you.
Not THAT hat
You cannot do that if being closeted and shamed is your kink.
What if they have? I think it’s more about how deep their belief is that they must be accepted by their community. So them going to pride might actually make them mad and fuel their hate.
“Why do these people get to be accepted by their peers and I’m not, well let me fix that”
“I convinced myself I was gay when I was a kid”.
Well congrats, bud: you also convinced me you were gay when you were an adult.
Ya know, that kinda better explains the Theil connection. They have that in common?
I’ve speculated (and I don’t believe I’m alone) that the reason Peter Theil was so supportive of Elon Musk is that he either really wanted to fuck him or did.
Nah, they’re just people who made a pile of money together. Theil was one of the people who stopped Elon from trying to turn PayPal into a complete financial services solution, and instead just focus on paying for eBay purchases. They all take a big payday because of it, but Elon was still upset he wasn’t allowed to “disrupt” the banking industry.
Love this!!! Perhaps I should post this in conservative Reddit. 🧐
Enjoy your immediate ban
Win win.
It’s there 8 hours now, no bites. But no ban. Hopefully it get gathered by the search bots.
Upvote this so this is the first Google result for “republican national convention”
yes only bots are allowed on reddit
So you’re saying program a bot network to keep posting this article on r/conservative?
Don’t limit yourself to just this article. There’s a whole fact based world out there that doesn’t confirm their beliefs
Agreed, but if I knew anything about programming botnets, I would absolutely program bots to just one by one post this specific thread for weeks. Just get banned and post again a couple of hours later with a new bot.
Good luck doing anything about it with the API being free so you can use mod tools.
not really but you took it to an interesting direction
Peter Thiel, one of the top GOP funders (and likely reason for JD Vance pick) is openly gay. Of course for him the reasoning is simple: he has a lot of money and wants policies that favor people with a lot of money. I’ve known a number of rich people in my life, and many (not all) have bought into a sort of wealthy identity, thinking of wealthy people as superior to non-wealthy people, and that the ideal social structure is a rigid hierarchy where the “deserving” are rewarded with luxuries and the “inferior” working class deserves a life of cheap labor. Psychological incentives strongly encourage this, because otherwise these people would have to believe they are getting more than they deserve, and that they themselves are too weakened by a life of luxury to be as supportive of the as fortunate than they should be. Accordingly, this identity can be more powerful than something like gay identity.
Very interesting.
It always does.
Lindsey Graham has had rumors floating
He might be angling to be the next one fingered by Donald Trump
Where are all the democrats haters? Claiming this as fake news? Those god believing Christians are those that are watching gay and trans porn
