watched this yesterday. It never fails to surprise me just how internationally linked all those little fascistic, nationalistic movements are. Like, obviously German Reichsbürger and American Sovereign Citizens are 'similar but different', but to learn just how much they are linked at their origin point was kinda eye-opening
These people's understanding of politics, authority, and law is truly fascinating.
Kinda hard to wrap my head around tbh.
Sometimes Sartre was wrong
" Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play.
They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. "
Some of these stupids do believe in their giberish
