You don't have to be good at anything to destroy things, which is why it's all they brag about.

I guess you are right. The staggering thing for me is the shear apathy required to do what they are doing. It’s revolting and frankly terrifying, but fascinating.

There is a yet to be diagnosed mental illness involved here, for so many people to so callously trumpet and parade toward things that actively and directly hurt them as well, just to prove some imaginary point.

It’s like psychopathy mixed with a side of Stockholm flavoured bias soup.

Fascism is a mental illness, luckily it can be treated at home.
