  • I’ve been calling it symbolic degeneration in my head. While the fascists of the 20s, 30s, and 40s generally had a tendency to disrespecting and abusing symbolism for political gain these people barely know what symbolism is. They know that certain imagery and symbols have meaning but are too stupid and gaudy to really understand it, they treat it like a child learning poetry, they know certain words have imagery and ideas attached but have no clue how any of it works in theory so they just photo copy it until it loses all coherence.

    I invoke certain bits of imagery on purpose with subtle differences from the real thing for shits and giggles to fuck with people so this is something I keyed into awhile back.
