    People are still saying this shit in here in the comments. We also saw it said a fuckton during Covid. It’s literally one of the most cliche and common eco-fash talking points.

          I’m assuming people are being unserious edgelords when they say things like that. Especially now. There’s too much regular fascism right now to worry about “eco fascism”.

            Yeah I’m sorry to say but that seems like a naive mindset in these days. I used to think edgelords were just saying Nazi shit online to be edgy, then the last 10 years happened. Now I know better. When people tell you who they are believe them.

              Different groups of people.

              Back in the day, they were just edgelords saying shit to piss people off. The group that “Hitler did nothing wrong” as a name for a Mnt Dew flavor did it knowing it would never actually get through. They did it to embarrass Pepsi co. The problem was was that those people got pushed out of their spaces by real nazis over time because those people didn’t get the joke and main stream news misreported on it.

              The “people are a virus” types I knew way back when have all quieted up. The worse of them are do-nothing Democrats who make noise human rights, but still put their stocks in front of that. Everyone else is some flavor of socialist or communist by now.

      Lemmy does have some eco-fascist takes. Its not often but you have situations where posts are infested with the most deranged reasoning. Instead of focusing on the root issue, the perspective is given towards normal people and how bans are the “way forward” rather than regulation.
