It’s funny and all…but honestly making this an actual thing just helps normalize this kinda bullshit fascist behaviour. It twists people’s minds to think it’s funny and amusing and essentially forces more compliance that it’s all good to continue. Wrong time to do this…

Once, but that doesn’t change the fact that this still normalizes a fascist takeover. I feel like you’re forgetting how easily manipulated people are.
I get the idea of making fun of things, but constantly making fun of something that is clearly bad DOES normalize the entire topic and the younger generations will just assume it’s more funny haha stuff and won’t take shit seriously.
My point…it’s too early to want this. The entire takeover should be met with real resistance, not a clown show, memes and jokes. It’s kinda sad that people have forgotten how to actually fight and stand up but instead do pranks and jokes thinking it does anything other then normalize the entire topic.
