I don't expect fascists to have any sense of foresight or rationality, but the fact they think this will lead to good things happening personally to them instead of catastrophic consequences for all parties is baffling

Like, at least I can understand when libs and conservatives salivate over bombing foreign nations- they firmly believe they would be completely insulated from the blowback of such actions. But doing so to their own cities, within their own borders? Absolute foolishness to think that won't sink the country into total chaos

it's wild, the dissonant blend of assumed invulnerability and desperate lashing-out is overloading the hitler particle meter

Well they're convinced the other side are utter paper tigers who will cower and whimper and die. When it comes to reactionaries thinking this of liberal Democrat voter types it's not unfounded given how the Democratic party is constantly lying down, surrendering, and generally amenable to being quickly cowed into apologizing for questioning the way reactionaries think and even adopting their views. When it comes to liberals thinking this of reactionaries there is something to be said of the fact that they are mostly just playing rebel and most of them would weep at losing cable TV or enduring any other serious hardship but the very fact they're so armed and some amount of them would harden up into violently retributive militia types should give liberals pause.

But in either case they believe the military would be on their particular side and that small arms would be no matched for the combined excess of America's various forces. It's just a direct manifestation of a desire to turn the brutalizing punishment dealing state on their own enemies and tormentors internally. No different really than wanting to pass laws outlawing abortion or access to sex toys or DEI is seen as owning the other side and using the state to inflict pain on them while you chortle safely.

That and Americans haven't know actual strife. They can't conceive of the war coming to their front door, they believe due to all the foreign wars that it'll be like that, something they just watch on TV happening elsewhere.

But even beyond the idea that there'll be no successful resistance against something like this, a major American city being bombed and blown up would be pretty bad for the US economy, and in turn, would harm the CHUDs financially, but they don't seem to understand that.

This is kinda like the Israeli comedy videos that I had the misfortune of seeing recently where all the “jokes” were just the comedians stating their views. There is no punchline, just someone on stage saying “I love watching Palestinians get hit with missiles” to laughter from the crowd. It’s the same vibe where they’re barely making jokes, they’re just stating how much they want other people to suffer because that’s what they find funny

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 33 points 3 months ago

Conservative comedy isn't about making the audience laugh or think, it's about affirming what the "in-group" believes and supports.

It's common knowledge that chuds are utterly unable to understand or do satire.

Inb4 90% of the comments here unironicly saying they'd pay to watch an American city be bombed

[–] Ilixtze@lemmy.ml 22 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Why pay for something you can get for free?

[–] alexei_1917@hexbear.net 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I mean, yeah. As soon as that happens, the footage will be all over Hexbear with folks celebrating. No need to pay a subscription to a news outlet to see the footage and good tankie takes on it. Both will be available on here.

any bomb they drop on a US city is one bomb not dropped on palestine

[–] Evilsandwichman@hexbear.net 16 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Unironically we already do; if the government bombs an American city it's literally a tax refund.

In all seriousness though we already have footage of that we can watch https://youtu.be/6RFW9KuL-nk

Before clicking I'm assuming this is Philly PD dropping a satchel charge from a helo onto the MOVE house.

“BuT cItIeS aRe FuLl Of CrImE!”

CHUDs, YOU’RE the criminals everyone wants to avoid. That’s how blue states got their high cost of living, to avoid you!

At least they used goofy photoshop stuff for the picture and not some gross AI shit.

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

Im actually impressed

[–] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 12 points 3 months ago

All these purported American Patriots™ are just overwhelmingly eager to weaken America in the face of rising Chinese power.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 5 points 3 months ago

kinda reminds me of the guy who did the fema walmart pictures except it's a topic they like

[–] segfault11@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

whenever i see chuds say chapo or hasan is cringe, i'm like, sure sometimes their humor falls flat, or they say something that exposes them as being a bit out of touch with average joes, but i don't see how they're cringe in any typical sense? but i think i understand what they mean now from looking at this picture

[–] Damarcusart@hexbear.net 3 points 3 months ago

"Cringe" has always meant "Caring about something I personally don't like/Caring too much about something." It's just jaded edgy highschooler shit, which is itself unironically the cringiest a person can be.
