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

trying to police aesthetics sounds kinda like one of the ways you can end up with fascism, honestly

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*
