    And, it’s like, the right is as irritating as shit at every possible opportunity about having their way be the only way. Why would I want to abide by their cultural institutions and norms when they transparently have nothing for me and plan on being a massive pain in the ass the whole time even if I acquiesce?

    I don’t want them railroading me through life when there’s already enough shit depriving me of any significant choice in what I do and how I do it. They brought the steamroller on themselves.

      It’s pretty funny how they completely lack self awareness in that regard. They’re really afraid that the communists will impose their values on the right, but have absolutely no qualms about imposing their own values on everyone else. I find this tends to be the key difference between communists and the fash. We’re open and honest about what we actually want and why.

      Holy shit—this is the gospel in a way I’ve never considered it. Specifically:

      Why would I want to abide by their cultural institutions and norms when they transparently have nothing for me and plan on being a massive pain in the ass the whole time even if I acquiesce?

      Like, in the marketplace of ideas, they have absolutely no products to sell.
