It's too bad the character rick is a fascist.
lol sounds like you are resigning to a fate they gave you. Redefine Rick. Take it. Stop playing by their rules.

I don't see any memes or other agitprop making that connection even though its such an easy connection to make right now.
Shit doesn't just manifest by itself. It requires someone actually taking time and energy to do it.

There's a good meme/propaganda thing there:
You want Gun Control? Go to Prison, it's working great there!

Seconding self-hosted. It used to be much more of a pain. But Ive heard great things about solutions like Mail-in-a-box that make it much, much easier.
Obviously self-hosted wont be for everyone, but if you have the skills this is the best, most controlled, and secure (if configures properly) method.

Americans are unable to admit that these mass shootings are the result Cultural problem, not a legislative one. Even if laws were to be enacted that met the demands of gun critics, it would still not do anything to change the deepy-seeded culture of toxic aggression and alienation that fuels these shootings.
Even now in states with much stricter gun laws, the black market is providing anything illegal. So ultimately if one were determined to aqcuire the weapons, the laws themselves would do little to stop it.
The resulting situation would be that people who are actually trying to follow the law and protect themselves would find it much harder to, while those purchasing from black markets would have little to no problem.

Here is a critical take away: Fascism will likely never look the same as it did previously. Attempts to use WW2 Fascism as the Litmus test for modern day fascism in an inadequate model. Fascism will invariably mutate, as it primarily uses culture, not politics, as its primary vehicle.

Fucking neckbeards, bruh. STEM fields have historically been male dominated, resulting in an environment where toxic misogynistic behaviors are not kept in check, or laughed off. Combine that with the culture arising from the anonymity of the internet. Then theres shit like GamerGate.

Yeah I haven't heard the best reviews of them. Still, hard to beat this deal for 2 rifles. I hear the ARs are pretty decent tho.

Next time anyone thinks something is problematic, they must ask MisterDoctorProfessorX if it affects their life at all. If not, it is not an issue because we all know that MisterDoctorProfessorX is the ultimate word on everything.
lol no one really gives a shit if something affects you personally.

No, Fashwave is not an appropriation of the "leftist Vaporwave".
Synthwave is not the same as Vaporwave, like at all. It is important to know these cultural distinctions. The Music, Aesthetics, Ethos etc are completely different.
Vaporwave above all is a music genre. The music is the source of the aesthetics and not so much vice versa. Vaporwave, despite being invented by a trans woman, is not decidedly Leftist, like at all. There are no obvious leftist vaporwave music artists who are defining the scene to be leftist. It is not enough to point out Leisurewave or Laborwave and its associated memes to declare Vaporwave leftist. Not by a long shot. Those tendencies can be seen as peripheral and late-coming.

And again here we see Journalists putting a spotlight on a turd. Fashwave, if one could even claim it exists, is a microscopic "scene", if you could even call it that. It consists of literally 1-3 actual artists and a bunch of people simply appropriating non-fash music and imagery. Yet here is an article lending it credit, inflating it to be bigger than it is.
The left could have done this for themselves, but they simply didnt. I don't know if its a lack of imagination, cultural awareness, or motivation but the Left has demonstrated itself to be very slow and reluctant to engage in the culture war. Leftists will learn this sooner or later, but I fear it will be too late by then.
