A Shitlib pop history youtuber who makes lowbrow “what if” slop and has been recently getting into obnoxious slap fights with random communists and anarchists on Bird-site also has far right fans? Huh

    Don Quixote is smiling on them.

    Dude, you guys won the cold war already. Give it a rest. You won the whole damn thing, and how are you STILL not happy?

      They won the Cold War and the world didn't instantly get better. In fact, everything seems to be slowly getting worse. There are no grand aspirations for humanity anymore. Every new technology is met with justified skepticism because people know it'll be used to fire as many workers as possible. They just don't connect it back to capitalism. In fact, when shit goes wrong today, people STILL blame communism for it.

          I don't know if a pervasive sense of entropic hopelessness is technically a material condition, but it's not like they're immune to it. They need something to blame
