    people really underestimate how much white supremacists obsess over the roman empre, like its their favorite thing ever, like the idea of rome being united and all white, and some kind of christian (but not the brown kind) and idk just murdering all human life on earth outside of rome, at its historical height, and just kind of living in rome forever and ever, just gets their little white dicks so rock fucking hard. All throughout history too, this isn’t some new internet youtube phenomena, basically since rome collapsed its all white people talk about, every kingdom, every war, all the white religions and they just never shutup about it. In fact the concept of racism itself could be traced back to this fantasy of rome just existing at its height and killing everyone else on earth outside of rome for some strange reason

      I don’t get fascists. They could just become communists and have all the marching, uniforms, war heroism, glorification of labor, and mass mobilization anybody could want. And, you know, actually win.

      Instead, they just simp for the perennial loser of all mass political movements – all in the name of being “white.”

        They don’t really care about any of that, those are all superficial details. They care about the feeling of supremacy and subjugation, and being able to stand above the rest as undisputedly better. Fascists are simply insecure narcassists who demand others recognize their superiority.

      I find it weird how white nationalists and other right-wing radicals denounce the U.S. and other imperialist entities in the current era like NATO or the EU for being multicultural, “decadent/degenerate” and whatever else, but then go on to worship empires that had a lot of the things they hate about the current West.

      Imagine a fascist in a far future or some alternate universe saying that Oceania or the Galactic Empire or the Imperium of Man have become degenerate and that we should instead emulate the greats of the past like NATO.

    Diversity leads to contradictions. If your system cannot cope with these contradictions, it will suffer from diversity. If your system tries to resolve the contradictions, it will learn and benefit from diversity.

    Completely forgetting all the civilizations that were “racially pure” and collapsed, like oh I don’t know a little something called Nazi Germany?

    When these people talk about “civilizations” they are talking at best about the Romam Empire before the split and the British Empire (maybe) because that’s the only tidbits of history they learned when they were 9.
