>'Right-wing extremism' or whatever you want to call it is no longer counter-culture.
It's also never been counter-cultural to have the same values and belief system as grandpappy and the klan and the church and the people in power. It fucking boggles my mind and will never make sense to me how conservatives somehow view their ideas as radical for being more regressive than their parents. Poo poo brain racism is not radical, it's so unradical it's historical. Leftism is actually revolutionary thought.

The only way to combat the existential threat of fascism is by actively being antifascist, expressing solidarity in the beliefs that fight facism (empathy and compassion in general for other people, disavowing authoritarianism, expressing actual political ideas based in critical thought rather than flashy stylish reactionary talking points, not tolerating any sort of hatred or violence), and representing the more stylish/glamorous side of non-fascist ideologies. Fascism at it's core relies on emotion and stuff outside of rational logic so you have to meet them where they're at while also making sure to not tolerate anything that spreads that sick virus.
