one of the things that struck me during the few weeks i spent following the voat pizzagate threads is that the vast majority of it was people from the sticks flipping poo poo over things like that that would not have even registered with me as weird if i hadn't seen pizzagate people's reaction. normal arts-scene quirkiness or drag queen flamboyance that for me would be like just an ordinary thursday night but to them was, and i quote, "satanic luciferian"

the rural parts of America are deeply culturally impoverished and a dude wearing eye shadow is enough to get you looks/threats depending on the time of day. it's not even that they necessarily believe in God, you're just an out of context problem for them and they have few ways to deal with those.

it is though? if you have no idea how to talk to a dude who has makeup on, you're tragically lacking in basic civilized abilities, you're culturally impoverished.

it started with this tweet that /pol/ nazis made with a photo from the @subwaycreatures instagram showing a woman wearing a niqab sitting calmly on the NYC subway next to a drag queen*. liberals picked it up and made fun of it for hours on end

France ... I dunno. The memories of the Nazi occupation still linger there and the Le Pen clan is not exactly a new phenomenon. Her dad made it into the runoff years ago and got blown out.

Is FN, or even far-right groups in general, recognized as Nazis by people who aren't already diametrically opposed to them?

Like, I have this nagging feeling that there are people out there who do recognize Hitler as a really bad dude, but completely fail to make the connection to contemporary analogues.

FN are the inheritors of Free French nationalism and not Pétainisme of course.
