if you are a white christian male reporter who decided that this week is a great time to get interested in far right extremism for the first time maybe.... don't
the impact of bad/minimizing/romantic coverage of this stuff is enormous, and diving in headfirst makes you enormously likely to a) process violent liars uncritically and b) have no consciousness of the historical roots of this stuff and c) not examine your own biases
and i mention identity here not bc identity implies foreknowledge, but bc having skin in the game- being one of their targets - can countermand the tendency to approach the far right as a morally neutral or salacious subject, rather than...hate movements premised on violence

Banned from the Telegram chat where Parler refugees are being welcomed with open arms by neo-Nazis simply for posting the script of Jerry Seinfeld's Bee Movie 😔😔 Image
thanks for the suggestion
but seriously wild to watch a mass radicalization event happen in real time

i cant believe the crown had a weird episode and a half rehabilitation of the Duke of Windsor/David, with Charles' simpering admiration for how "daring" and "original" he is, without once bringing up the fact that he was A GODDAMN NAZI
like a full bore, hitler befriending, state secret selling ass nazi, and so was wallis
honestly fucking bizarre to bring that up in one episode and then just... never speak of it again and give him a weird fulsome/melancholy rehabilitation (and her the duty of Wisdom about Love)
