it's not just crypto-fascists, there are people whose entire political engagement is just both sides-contrarianism. i genuinely have more respect for fascists because they can at least unapologetically say "achieving my political ends would involve the brute exercise of power and killing lots of people". i think the same thing, I just want the exact opposite people dead.

the Streisand Effect rightfully applies to specific pieces of factual information. it does not apply to people. idiots on the internet read the story and assumed it means "YOU CAN NEVER SHUT ANYONE UP" when it actually means "THREE PEOPLE CAN KEEP A SECRET IF TWO OF THEM ARE DEAD".

a similar thing can be observed in misapplication of the Godwin rule

his grift has run its course in Britain and North America, so Oz is the only anglosphere place left for him to go. it being super racist probably helps, though.

Does being from Britain help or hurt Milo in Australia? It seemed like it was a negative here in America, because he was always a bad fit with the American nativists. Didn't speak their language, absolutely didn't understand what to do or say beyond being transgressive, etc.

the reason he is trying australia is he got on a cable news channel called sky news thats owned by rupert murdoch for an interview, theyre the ones that interviewed a nazi people had actually heard of here unlike milo so they got in massive trouble and lost all their advertisers

its watched by about 5000-30000 viewers depending on the program which is a huge audience for him now

he also got invited to the parliament by an insane senator that got booted for being a british citizen

His grift won't work here. Australia's not racist in the hateful malicious marching down the street in a kkk hood way that he's used to in states.

we're racist in a more casual "aw he doesn't know any better", accidentally getting Harry Connick Jr to judge a minstrel show way.

Like Jackie Chan got his name because the Australians he worked with couldn't be arsed remembering his name so they just called him jacky. It's that sort of casual lazy racism but it's rarely spiteful or malicious

Sometimes I think about that episode of Recess where the playground gets privatized through a currency exchange system of trading cards. One of the friends gets mad about never being able to play because he's poor, so he grinds and connives his way to being the most powerful capitalist on the playground. In the end they overthrow him by transitioning to a currency based on some other kid poo poo and he goes back to being poor. But the playground is still privatized so nothing actually changed.

Anyway, that's how CHUDs think they're gonna fix capitalism.

Racism can seem quaint when you're confident in the hegemony of white supremacy, but the second they start to feel threatened they're gonna change real quick.

I'm still mad that the playground stayed capitalist in the episode, but I guess you can't say that's not realistic. :mrwhite:
