You start talking about the role aesthetic plays in fascism and a distressing number of people's response is, cool we just need to figure out which aesthetics are fascist and ban them
Like yeah you can find aesthetic similarities in fascist movements across time but also fascists can and will adapt to changing times and local subcultures
Not to mention the irony of using the idea that the world consists of absolute/objective categories, a certain subset of them posing a moral danger to the public well-being, as a response against fascism.
Right. One would hope that people would be able to recognize that "death to fascists" means "we need to be willing to use lethal force in driving fascism back" and not "once a person gets called a fascist their life stops having value" but *shrug*
