        Cynicism sucks. It convinces people that it’s not worth trying. Including the person spreading it.

        It’s always worth trying.

      Those on trial at Nuremburg mostly continued to hold their horrific views right through their executions.

        Also reminder that the vast majority of Nazis were not executed at Nuremberg. They were freed, and went on to join the nascent NATO and West German government.

        The first NATO general was a Nazi general. The first president of the German intelligence agency was a Nazi spy master.

        Yeah but those people actually believed things. Our people are sniveling shitheads whose beliefs only extend to the extent they can benefit from them.

        Except Stephen Miller, maybe.

          Except Stephen Miller, maybe.

          I was about to say, Miller is a true fascist, racist cunt and is not apologetic about if. He’ll go to his grave telling you he’s superior to everyone. Hopefully the wait for that moment is brief.

          Curtis Yarvin too. He’s the “philosopher” behind Thiel, Musk, Andreeson, Ben Horowitz, Brian Armstrong, and the other technofascists running the coup that’s happening now.

          Oh also Kevin Roberts of the Heritage Foundation. He is a straight up domestic terrorist (he said it himself) and needs to be handled as such.

        Stephen Miller’s slimy featureless cylindrical head would probably slip right through.
