In all fairness I'm pretty sure the rally that guy was attending was in support of rapists and not specifically white supremacists.

I've been binge reading through the Judge Dredd stories and it's been weird comparing it to reality, because Dredd wouldn't be caught dead supporting these chuds.

^----- Yeah Dredd is a mega authoritarian fascist but he straight up doesnt give two fucks about people unless they break the law.


Is it weird I find Boogie to be infinitely more annoying than morons like Ian Miles or Jacob Wohl ?

At least they have some shred of ideals or whatever. Boogie just says dumb rear end hot takes and then whines and complains about how mean the internet is when people call him on it.

Boogie is that IMC tweet "I have a political stance. My political stance is pro-consumer pro-gamer, that's it" except that's somehow actually his political stance

There's a stretch of stories around 2006-2008 where Dredd convinces them to repeal the laws prohibiting mutants from living in mega city one and when anti mutant crime skyrockets he comes down extra hard on the racists

You could make a case that Judge Dredd is a fantasy by someone who has never witnessed fascism up close, or at least someone who thinks fascism oppresses everyone instead of tacitly supporting public violence on their rivals.

I know he's not as well known, but it's telling you never see cops wearing Judge Dredd stickers and far too many Punisher ones.

The video from yesterday was four dorks being quietly ushered out of a lobby or something. Patriot Front makes a “cool” video of every dumb thing they do, though, like when they drove their mom’s van to Vermont (?) to hold a sign in front of city hall for ten minutes and their video recorded the license number on mom’s van.

It's because he is only a small piece of a larger machine, not a man purposely trying to exert his will on the world in defiance of what The Man says. Being a hold individual is more appealing than just being a very efficient cog in the machine

Also the last fifteen years or so have been about Dredd trying to fix the system so that maybe the world can go back to not being a nightmare after being confronted with the truth: the judge system was never intended to be a permanent thing, it was only ever meant to get the country through a period with a batshit insane corrupt president who just wanted to nuke Russia and literally stole the election

Also plenty of Dredd stories are just absolutely nightmarish if you strip the jokes out, and that's before you take into account that the system is patently failing and things are actually better in the small pockets of civilization that operate more like the Old World and the city is essentially limping from disaster to disaster and the next one could be the end of what's left of America

I think at some point they realized they couldn't really write an even-handed authoritarian ; you have to choose one or the other.

Like, I'm still early on, and there's a story where Dredd breaks up a democracy protest using tactics that wouldn't be out of place today, but it goes out of its way to show he didn't break the laws of Mega-City One. In reality, they wouldn't have cared, and I think the writers eventually realize that.

I like how the 2-week plan is 1500 calories a day and the 4 week plan is 2000 calories a day, you know, so you can have just enough energy if you're not having to do any work to survive.
