        And while fascism does use humor to lure people in, it also cannot deal with being the but of a joke

          That’s ironic when you consider who you mean to be talking about, and who actually tried to blacklist comedians like Dave Chappelle.

          I’m of the opinion that left wingers say these things because they sound high brow, but they never seem to realize how big of a self-own they’re making for themselves. It’s like they don’t have the awareness to take a step back and look at how what they’re saying would be seen by those outside their echo chamber.

          Oh well. I don’t even know why I’m here. I know you guys don’t believe in dissident views. Keep telling yourselves you are the virtuous few in the face of the evil fash. I’m sure you don’t resemble exactly what you hate at least some of the time.

          Fascist humor is just the first thing any teenage mind would think of to make their teenage friends giggle. It usually just amounts to calling someone a derogatory name. And, just like a teenager, they get pissed when it’s echoed back at them. They are, literally, mentally retarded.
