    From the Rhetoric of Fascism:

    Fascism first secures advantage through playful spectacles of a rhetoric both critical toward and within democracy.

    Stew Peters is hilarious. And it is ridiculous to believe someone that calls himself that.

    But the Just Jokes thing is a trope.

    There is overlap between this trope and emotional abuse.

    It’s the same thing.

    You can try to sell me whatever you want, honestly. But that’s fundamentally different from exercising your supposed free speech any platform to advocate the violent overthrow of the government.

      Mate, you’re putting way too much effort in over a guy who calls himself stupider, and says he was born on April Fools day.

            Oh. You mean revolting? Not the playful rhetoric of violence leading up to it.

            Yeah, no, actual revolution is never as clean as anyone wants it to be. And a bunch of innocent people that just want to live their lives get caught up in someone’s bitch ass feelings being hurt.

            I don’t support revolution, no, communist or otherwise. But these violence adoring fascists with ironic names and quirky messages of sedition can get bent too. That’s all I’m saying.
