One of the things that makers libs so bad at recognizing fascism is how effectively they utilize that plausible deniability but I think you’re right in this case.
The Reddit op is from what I can see pretty standard potentially-reactionary American, not overtly fash but does seem the type that would side with real fascists pretty quick, they seem
pro-cop or at least have a copaganized view of the police and have some other kind of generally misanthropic “idiocracy was right” kind of views just from a cursory overview of their account
Yeah like I said I think you’re right they’re not a nazi. I’m just saying all it would take for it to be a fash symbol is 4chan deciding it’s sufficiently ironic to line up behind. They’ve done it with other innocuous shit before
