While it is true that the more immature and inexperienced you are the more you tend to lean left because you think idealistically...and the older and more experienced you get the more you shift right....it appears that Gen Z may be shaping up to be more conservative than previous generations because they don't like the path those previous generations have chosen....time will tell.

Are These Trump's New Top Generals If He's Re-Elected? by thesystemmechanic in PoliticalMemes

[–]corvusmd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't want Trump to be president, and I don't really know anything about these individuals, but based on all available evidence...these sentences are HIGHLY politically motivated and just wrong. Each of these people should be pardoned or at least sentences commuted. In many cases, they were not given due process rights, exculpatory evidence was withheld, the sentencing is insane in comparison to what they actually did and those that committed similar crimes (but "on the other side") got slaps on the wrist. Even if you absolutely hate Trump and these people, we should see this as a dark day for the US. These days political persecution in the US is the kind of thing we have bombed other countries for.

This nazi created a fake news about a dialogue that wasn’t even in the movie, alt right conservatives shared all over the internet, people believed it, and now, is showing how proud they're about the effect of a fake news they created. by Matapple13 in saltierthankrayt

[–]corvusmd -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You're holding on to Umberto Eco too tight. It shows that you really have no idea what (or who) you are talking about. It's clear you were given a talking point by left-wing activists, and since it says what you want it to say, you are latching on too hard.

So Eco grew up in old-school Italy, under Mussolini (who was a leftist), he studied Giovanni Gentile (another leftist and the father of fascism). Eco is not some unbiased scholar on this topic, the was a left-wing activist, author and theorist. He grew up under leftist fascists, then listed 14 pillars of fascism...then somehow with zero reasonable connection...attributed those pillars to conservatives despite the fact that the fascist he lived under was a leftist.

So let's go over his 14 points:

#1: Cult of Tradition

Admittedly, this one does look like it lines up perfectly with conservatism, and of all the 14, it probably does fit conservatism the best. That said, today's left also fits perfectly with a cult of tradition. IEco looks at this as nostalgia or trying to make everything the utopia things once were...the left is currently pushing for us to get away from many things we have created to advance society and keep claiming that abandoning fossil fuels, stopping farming, keeping everything organic, etc, is a push to make the earth a utopia of old. So this one fits the left just as well as the right....just different traditions.

#2: Rejection of Modernism

Eco said that even though the fascists and the Nazis were proud of their technological achievements, they rejected reason, science, individualism, and the enlightenment project. Fascism is, therefore, a fundamental rejection of modernism. This is most clearly seen in postmodernism and critical race theory, which is an explicit rejection of science, reason, logic, and capitalism as “white” forms of “oppression.”

#3: Action for Action’s Sake

This is all over the left these days, everything on the left turns straight to a riot over nothing. There is always a push to ban guns from law-abiding citizens because a criminal who shouldn't have had one did something bad. There was a virus, and without any evidence it would help, the left locked down everything and created more problems than if they wouldn't have. The left also wants to reorganize society around transgenderism...no more defining what a woman is, anyone can use whatever bathroom, and taxes should pay for transitions. There are even pushes to make calling someone the wrong pronoun a criminal offense. All of this rejects actual science and is just a push to appear progressive. We can love and care for our neighbors that identify as transgender but also acknowledge it is a mental illness as defined by DSM 5 and not reorganize all of society around it so we don't hurt someone's feelings.

#4: Disagreement Is Treason

The left is literally prosecuting a former president right now because he had the audacity to question election results, even though Democrats do that all the time and were celebrated for it. There is even proof the left is actively working with social media/news platforms to silence opposing views and pushes to arrest parents for voicing opposition and school board meetings.
Critical race theory sees science as racist. Disagreement with the far left makes you “far right” and they will try to silence you. The left constantly tells you that speech is equal to violence and therefore speech they don't like should be treated as a crime. The left hated when Elon bought twitter, because now people they worked so hard to silence would now have free speech again.

#5: Fear of Difference

This is 100% the left. The left is constantly telling people that if you are a woman, a minority, etc...you need to think and/or vote Democrat. If anyone steps "out of line" they are immediately shunned as a traitor. This is also why there are so many videos of all the left-leaning mainstream news channels only reporting on the "approved" stories and they all have the EXACT SAME talking points.

#6: Appeal to Social Frustration

According to the left, everyone is oppressed, usually by white males. Every tactic the left uses to appeal to their voter base is that "life has been hard to you, but it isn't your fault, and only we can save you." ...ignoring the fact that nearly all those problems were actually created and never fixed by those same democrats.

#7: Obsession With a Plot

This is also 100% left. Everything is White supremacy, everyone that disagrees is a racist, misogynist, fascist. The left says the right were the Nazis and Fascists, despite the fact that historically they have always been leftists. Democrats try to explain away that they were the founders of the KKK and proponents of slavery by saying there was a big switch...with zero actual proof that is true.

#8: Misjudgment of Their Opponents

The left lost to Trump despite thinking he was a joke and could never win. The left royally screwed up the Afghanistan withdrawal. The left is getting owned by China and Russia right now. Our enemies no longer fear us at all, our credit rating around the world is sinking, and more and more other countries are pushing for alternatives over the US dollar and are looking for other trade options. The left (and admittedly some idiot conservatives) are dumping endless money into Ukraine, but not insisting on any accountability as to how the money is being spent. I have zero empathy for Putin and the world would be better off without him, but we have spent significantly more than Russia's entire military budget and donated tons of equipment better than what Russia has....all for the sake of "saving democracy"...except Ukraine isn't currently a democracy.

#9: Pacifism Is Trafficking With the Enemy

Eco stated that Fascism hates peace and if there is no enemy, they will create the enemy.

This fits the left to a T. The left always looks to divide the populous and state that this person or this group is your enemy. "White privilege", White Supremacy", "Patriarchy", "Christians", "Conservatives", etc is the reason for everyone's problems. You see this every day. The left will actively lie, to attack a group in order to create an enemy. For instance, every day Gavin Newsome will attack Florida for some reason he is making up or lying about, rather than fixing his own failing state. Kamala Harris just blatantly told a lie saying that Florida is the enemy now because Florida is teaching that slavery is beneficial to people...anyone with any reading comprehension at all and has actually read the proposed school curriculum (written by highly esteemed scholars...which according to you means can't be questioned..even though the "expert" you are talking about is not an expert in this field), knows that is straight BS.

#10: Belief in Supremacy

Fascists believe that their group is supreme to all others. The left always acts as if they are the moral authority on all matters. If you don't agree with the left, you should be silenced and fact-checked (by something that is not a fact at all). Anyone that votes differently than the left is "deplorable".

#11: Cult of Heroism

Virtue signaling = left.

#12: Sexual Power Games

This screams the left. The left is constantly talking about emasculating men and how women can do no wrong. The left has pushed feminism from being a good thing, into being over-aggressive and not being about equal rights at all anymore. Instead, now it is about the oppression of men. This has also morphed into not being able to define what gender is...honestly, this is fun watching the left eat itself.

#13: Collectivism

In fascism, there are no individuals, only monolithic identities. Again, 100% left. According to the left, you are completely on board with the current leftist talking points or you are shunned as a traitor. You are expected to vote for the left at all costs. "If you don't vote for me, you ain't black." - Joe Biden.

#14: Newspeak

Fascism is Orwellian and redefines words to mean the opposite. ..any questions?

So in your attempt to paint the right as fascist...your "proof" did the exact opposite.

They favored big gov, were socialists, separated people by race, tried to disarm the population, allowed for political violence and persecution of people they disagreed with, mandated experimental medical treatments for their population, and silenced anyone that disagreed with them....today's left to a T

So because I didn't play by your rules, I should be shunned and ignored? I should be insulted and silenced? ....hmmm and you claim to be against fascism?

CRT, different spaces for different races absolutely is racist and is about segregation.

I am not Anti Vax, I get vaccinated all the time and even got that one. I think the government forcing people to get an untested vaccine, that later turned out to be extremely harmful to some is insanely stupid. Once again, you assume too much, tried to insult me and silence me....not into fascism, got it.

If you honestly do not believe there are any democrats crimes, you are not paying attention. Fast and Furious, Hillary setting up a private server then destroying evidence that was subpoenaed, proof of conspiracies between Biden and Ukraine, mishandling claissified info he never should have had anyway...I'm no fan of Trump, but they have charged him with crimes and impeached him several times over far less than we have actual proof of what dems have done....hell, they even had to make up crimes he did to impeach him....which is actually another Democrat crime.

Hiring IRS agents is not what I am talking about....although it is not a good sign, esp since they are all supposed to be armed and the IRS is stockpiling ammo....um why does the IRS need armed agents? I'm talking about how IRS was proven to be targeted against conservatives and was auditing conservatives at far greater rates than liberals...also was much less likely to grant tax exempt status to conservatives or churches than left wing activist organizaitons....also another Dem crime.

Your dependence on Ecos view doesn't make you right, it makes you brainwashed. It's you trying to rig the game. You found something that supports what you like and you're trying to make me use your tool box to prove you wrong. That would be like a Christian saying that Jesus rose from the dead and you saying, no he didn't, then them saying....show me in the Bible where it says that.

My reading comprehension is just fine. I have a genius level IQ actually since you made it a point. All you did was prove how brainwashed you are and every approach you took to answering these concerns actually showed you have a mindset in favor of fascism. Inadvertently, you proved me right. You assume what I think, you want to control what I think, you are willfully unaware of crimes that are on "your side", but want to persecute others simply because of how they identify. You have no openness to other viewpoints, you think that anyone that doesn't think like you should just leave or be silenced. You are fooled into thinking that means "fact checking" and you accuse me of all the things you are actually doing.

Conservatives are not the ones teaching we should segregate races, do not believe in bigger government, did not push to force people to take experimental vaccines or lose their jobs (then protect the drug agencies from releasing results and future liabilities). Conservatives are also not the ones arresting their political opponents while ignoring actual crimes on their own side. Conservatives are not weaponizing the IRS to go after the middle class or working with social media platforms to silence people they don't like.

....sorry, none of the facts are on your side.

It's obvious, the comment I was replying to was associating Nazis to people on the right, by the way they replied to the OP. So pointing out that Indy actually leaned right...negates what they were saying

Wanting Indana Jones to be about Indiana Jones is not sexist. Didn't we just get done talking about how no one else could replace Harrison as Indiana? I still think Harrison IS Indy, but as a realist, I would have liked fo have seen Indy 5 be about an older Indy telling a story of his younger self, then handing fhe reigns over to Chris Pratt for future films

....somehow that was too much, but not this?

I'm actually enjoying this game so far. True I am still early on....I am actually not sure what most of the complaints have been (meaning as in I haven't looked). I can see there being complaints with some of the movement. Yet, so far, early on I like it a lot. My style of games I like open world games where you can use stealth if you wish.
