      Another interesting property of fascists is how their “enemy” is described in lurid but contradicting ways that don’t make any sense when you think about it for more than half a second.

      One minute, the “enemy” is described as weak, pathetic, disgusting, sub-human, sickly, cowardly, stupid little losers who can’t punch out of a wet paper bag. The next minute, the “enemy” is described as threatening, all-seeing, clever, oppressive, bold and brazen, powerful, influential, dominating the government, ruining people’s lives, etc.

      It’s maddening. And some people are absolute suckers for it.

        Like Schroedinger’s Immigrant. At all times he is stealing your job and a lazy, jobless, criminal.

          Well shit, that’s a much shorter and better way to put it.

          We need to spend more research funds observing these immigrants to collapse them into a single state!
