I’ve been having a number of conversations on Hexchan recently trying to make sense of their politics. The most common instance of their hateful hypocrisy I’ve encountered is this constant assurance that they support trans people while immediately attacking and dog piling and trans people who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump.
The hexchanners who aren’t actively Russian trolls seem to be little more than useful idiots for conservatives, minimizing the damage they do to vulnerable populations and engaging in high school level pettiness and hate.
It’s a straight up reactionary position to imply, in any way, that the fascist is the best option.
Obviously the best option is if Americans rose up to overthrow their corrupt government that only produces fascists as political candidates.
The choice of Trump vs Biden is only a choice of open fascism and crypto fascism. It’s not reactionary to point out that at least the open fascist is reviled by America’s traditional allies and had a great amount of trouble rallying support internationally.
I see no benefit to anyone if the EU sleepwalks into a shooting war with Russia following the crypto Fash because at least he’s civil.
It’s chan-brained to support the fascist because he is ostensibly LE FUNNY, too.
