    I can’t even imagine what that Nazi dude was thinking when he agreed to that fight. The stills I saw from it were hilarious.

      You ever imagine getting in a fight with someone?

      How many times do you imagine them giving as good as they get?

      Fascists live in a simplistic fantasy world of grievance, hierarchy, and spite, and it’s practically a law of the breed that they don’t think to the step after “I punch them.”

      This is, to my mind, the most telling quote of World War II that largely sums up why the fascists thought they’d win it:

      “The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everyone else and no one was going to bomb them.”

      -Marshall Arthur “Bomber” Harris

      They do not think to the next step, the actual fight between two people. They just jump in their imagination straight to their “inevitable” victory. It’s probably a large part of why they’re fascists in the first place.
