    ah, so, apparently, fascism is caused by decades of sexual oppression, denial, and self-hatred erupting and being directed outward at others.

    this would be far more interesting if it didn’t also mean the downfall of democracy.

        Wait hold on

        Why would cucks bother them? Isn’t that like a conservative thing?

        Am I seriously missing something here?

            Honestly, I’m even more confused now. White supremacists were using it against “RINOs”

            The original insult makes sense in that context (man who’s spouse is unfaithful), but in this diagram it was listed with oppression of identity and sexuality. The only way my brain seems to interpret that is by assuming the word is used in its fetish form which makes even less sense to me

              In the diagram you can substitute that word for any non-mainstream sexual or gender thing. It really doesn’t matter what - they’ll scapegoat anything as long as it’s a minority, elicits disgust from the in-crowd and reinforces any of the things it connects to with dashed lines.

              Pedophilia is a good one because it relates to ‘defending women & children’, makes the enemy look weak, causes sexual anxiety and elicits disgust. Hence ‘Save the children’ and all that.

              The diagram maps the conceptual framework behind it all - it’s best not to get too literal about any of the individual words.
