Practically every main stream internet service I can think about that I have used is littered with fascist or imperialist comments. Anytime I push back against it, I have to contend with a wave of reactionaries jumping down my throat.

Sometimes I wonder what’s the point. As in, should I just back off and not say anything? It doesn’t seem like saying anything makes a difference anyway.

I dunno, I guess I’m teetering on the edge of despair a bit. Fascism isn’t fringe on the internet anymore, from what I can see. It makes me worry for the near future.

Fill disclosure: my friend thinks I’m just too online.

    Reminder that the internet just like every other aspect of life exists outside the Anglosphere. This obviously does not mean that every non-anglo internet space is antifascist but there is more to the world than what Twitter and Reddit make it appear.
