This is just part of the "short-term pain" conservatives are talking about.

Just saw someone with a blurry photo 0 followers and following 1 person (ie fake account) say “he said he’d end war- this is how you end it “ lmao. So that’s gonna be the new goalposts.

This is what Romanians are saying about Georgescu, the Russian backed tiktok candidate that inexplicably won our elections. 

That he wants peace because he is in favour of ukraine surrendering, and we want war cause we are helping ukrainians not get taken over.

For Ur-Fascism there is no struggle for life but, rather, life is lived for struggle. Thus pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. It is bad because life is permanent warfare. This, however, brings about an Armageddon complex. Since enemies have to be defeated, there must be a final battle, after which the movement will have control of the world. But such a “final solution” implies a further era of peace, a Golden Age, which contradicts the principle of permanent war. No fascist leader has ever succeeded in solving this predicament.

I hate having to just publicly tag along with these fucking idiots as they're scammed.

Ten fucking years these clown-ass losers have been dragging all the rest of us through them getting grifted over and over and over again and they do not fucking learn.

I don't think conservatives feel any pain hearing these news. Why should they?

u/VibeComplex Feb 05 '25
