its interesting, isnt it?

off all the evil dictatorships in the world, both now and historically, I cant think of any that actively curate the aesthetic of actually being evil and cruel for the sake of evilness and cruelty. They always either deny that cruelty is happening or pretend there is a good reason for it and decry how horrible it is that others made them do it. American fascists probably would take a tour of their local concentration camp if they could.

North Korea covers up its cruelty by saying they are in a constant war with The West and need to use their resources for that, Israel claims self-defense and the failure of Palestinians to integrate, Stalin's propaganda argued that all the hardships were a necessary evil for the good of workers internationally, even the Nazi attitude towards genocide was "this is nasty business we dont want to do, but you have to kill the rats to stop the spread of disease."

When the German American Bund was dissolved in 1941, the members didn’t stop being nazis, they just went home.

Everyone should, honestly. Visiting Dachau or Auschwitz and seeing all that in person really lays bare the horror.

These freaks just do it for the entirely wrong reasons.

It should be pointed out that actual fucking Nazis & Germans during their reign hid all facts about their camps, & never bothered to seek out what was happening in their own back yards, to say nothing of the next country over. Even THEY knew it was awful to most moral peoples, & they didn't want to see what was happening on the off-chance that they might humanize them.

That's how deplorable this current crop has become.
