Some contradictions in fascist rhetoric are obvious to the naked eye, leaving observers scratching their heads, amazed by the plethora of estranged neural pathways avoiding each other in someone’s head. The worship of billionaires like Trump and Musk as saviours of the poor, while they embark on a campaign of further impoverishing the masses, sticking the middle finger to the courts, is a glaring one.

This post series seeks to dive a bit deeper, focusing on notions seldom examined in depth, pertaining to human nature itself.

The first will focus on morality, increasingly a fragmented and confusing notion, as fascists struggle to reconcile their propaganda buzzwords with their actions.

Briefly, modern day fascists use commonly accepted frameworks to impugn the left, such as psychology, morality, civics, adherence to the law and spirituality/religion. If they analysed themselves using the same criteria, they may just discover they are sociopathic, profoundly immoral and evil, by objective standards within these frameworks.

One thing should be clear about these characters: whatever the future holds, they can never go back to being perceived as decent or honest people (or even safe to be around).

Currently, fascists claim a revolution is happening in the US, with the illegal (mind you) overhaul of the entire system by billionaire Elon Musk, with the blessing of demagogue Donald Trump, who fancies himself a king. They hope for this to be spread worldwide and believe that it will, through methods such as economic warfare and Musk’s foreign interference (pouring money into other countries’ elections and spewing propaganda on X). Some forms of sovereignty are more equal than others!

There was a chance for some to turn back, when faced with abominations such as the Palestinian genocide and planned takeover of Gaza by Trump, as well as the gifting of the West Bank to Israel for a campaign donation from Miriam Adelson. There was also a chance to turn back when they saw the unhinged warmongering and the further impoverishment of the poorest in the US, by design, or the obliteration of law and order.

They have now seen these things (they see them daily) and instead of fraternising with the common man, propagandists continue to push the mirage of a glorious future, despite all evidence of economic hardship and tyranny. Their trumpeted New World Order has arrived, imprisonment for dissidence included. And they love it. They also continue to focus on the Bigfoot of a leftist threat, to keep audiences animated (the left lacking power at this point).

As they lack an entirely new language, fascists continue to use notions pertaining to the above-mentioned spheres for effect. The crowds were raised to adhere to moral values and thus respond emotionally to notions such as good, evil, illegal, pathological, perverted, degenerate, righteous, patriotic, self-destructive etc. Most in the crowd have an innate need to feel like they are good people.

They will forego logic and observable reality to maintain that feeling, helping them get through the day by suppressing their conscience.

The bare facts are very simple.

Imperialist countries, now chiefly the US and its lap dog, Israel, seek to dominate other countries, extracting whatever benefits them, out of sheer greed. Upon fighting back, the inhabitants of those lands are dehumanised through the mainstream media apparatus and labelled terrorists or extremists, which makes the expropriation, displacement and killing of millions acceptable to the western world. When some emigrate to western countries in order to survive, or have a decent life, after their own countries have been destroyed by imperialism, they are dehumanised again and maligned with accusations of intending to colonise. They are the proverbial scapegoats to point at during the failing of neoliberalism.

That’s all there is to it. That’s all there ever was. Every side issue propagated by the mainstream media or “alternative media” imperialist bootlickers is a cog in the machine of manufacturing consent for mass murder and pillaging.

Morality is optional now

There are three factions I can distinguish in terms of their approach. Between them, there are two subcategories: Zionists, who support Israel’s apartheid and massacres, as well as colonialism, waging a campaign of persecution against Muslims, and the old-style Nazis who think Jews as a whole are to blame for all the ills of the world. Both are equally delusional and dangerous. As it’s an unavoidable topic today, fascists declare their adherence to one side or the other.

The “good guys” (fake Christians, generally)

First, there are those who nominally adhere to values derived from Abrahamic religions (emphasis on nominally). This would encompass most of the MAGA base – those who still wish to think of themselves as good and moral people. The avid listeners of Jordan Peterson’s thunderings would qualify here. So would the worshippers in Evangelical churches, donning the red hat, or pharisees, as Jesus would’ve called them.

The hypocrisy nowadays, with the shamelessness involved of supporting mass murder, concentration camps, forced starvation, rape and torture, is not even similar to the old comparison of the priest thundering against gay rights in church and then being caught with a rent boy in a motel. It’s more like the priest raping an altar boy in front of the congregation for an hour and then, orderly, giving communion. It’s that brutal and absurd.

Representative phrases would be the following (for instance, in relation to the genocide of the Palestinians):

“It’s sad that innocent people, including children, are being killed en masse, BUT…(introduce whatever, none being a justification).”

“It’s OK to kill kids. They’ll grow up to be terrorists.”

Translation: We will oppress their ethnic group for another 15-20 years at least; we have killed and imprisoned their family members, so they will grow up to resent our oppression and will rebel when strong enough to do so. They will grow up in poverty and misery under our tyranny. They have no chance in this world because of us. Might as well just kill them now.

“They are backward compared to us.”

Translation: We have kept these people from advancing economically so we could keep them powerless and label them as backward, dehumanising them so violence against them would seem more acceptable.

Years ago, propagandist Ben Shapiro claimed that Israelis liked to build, while Palestinians lived next to raw sewage. He said this knowing Israelis were building on stolen land after expropriating its rightful owners, while regularly destroying any infrastructure Palestinians built for their communities, while blockading Gaza so needed materials couldn’t enter the territory.

Such people pretend to have empathy in general, but conveniently make exceptions when it favours them, as if that made sense. They have an equal hatred of people they see as too traditionalist or religious (Muslims) and progressive leftists, somehow lumping them into one category: the enemy.

It is mind-boggling that although they, the good guys, through economic and military prowess, commit or support acts of unspeakable violence the enemy couldn’t possibly engage in, they still perceive themselves as better.

To defend their faith, apparently, one is allowed to break its tenets, one by one. Equally, to defend civilisation, one must act in the cruelest, most barbaric ways, while pretending to maintain the same moral standards all throughout.

About a decade ago, Jordan Peterson, while still saving young men from fascist tendencies, opined that anyone, given the right conditions, could become a concentration camp guard and one should be very, very careful. His words were prophetic; he was talking about himself. The man simply rationalised the usefulness of religion and empathy, just like he rationalises the usefulness of fascism today.

These people overall live in a false reality, using the veneer of morality and faith for comfort. There is one standard of behaviour/ humanness in their communities, and another one in relation to other groups or countries. For instance, the US abhors school shooters, yet American Zionists praise the IDF, who have bombed most schools in Gaza, killing children by the dozens at a time. One of these war criminals, freshly after a murder spree, is treated as a regular person. If they did the same in the US, or any other western country, they would be killed or never see the outside of a prison again.

Case in point – last year, a deranged individual stabbed multiple children and two adults in Southport, England, killing three little girls. Deservedly, he will never leave prison. The same camp referring to him as the epitome of evil was praising the IDF at the exact same time, as social media was filled with photos of dead and maimed Palestinian children. The monsters doing this walk free. Many have dual citizenship and roam the streets outside Israel. There could be a few in your town.

In 2023 and 2024, around Christmas time, carols were sung, as is traditional in largely Christian countries, the US included. They were singing about Jesus being born in Bethlehem. As they sang and rejoiced, Bethlehem was being bombed by Zionists with US weapons.

The Darwinists

These types have renounced moral values altogether, focusing on a Darwinian survival of the fittest (think Richard Spencer, Sam Harris, Douglas Murray, pimp and human trafficker Andrew Tate). They refuse the notion that our species has advanced through cooperation and the advancement of human rights. It all boils down to a Genghis Khan level of tribalism for them.

Any attempt of previously disadvantaged groups to attain equality (particularly with white males) is seen as a plot to subjugate or even annihilate them – which is, of course, detached from reality and pathological.

They also subscribe to a caveman-like impetus to own women and treat them like objects, their pedestals being full of rapists (apologies to any caveman I have offended).

They tend to be overtly fascist, openly discussing Hitler in a neutral or positive way, and only discuss groups in terms of inherent traits and numbers. They see the world as a board game, being perpetually at war in their own heads, in a full paranoid delusion of being replaced by non-white immigrants, whom they regard as parasitic and genetically inferior to whites.

They may or may not acknowledge that the imperialist wars they support create refugees; however, with their cold hard logic, they still refuse to admit that refugees are merely trying to survive or better their lives, as anyone would, ascribing grand conspiracies to their migration.

Overall, they proudly have no empathy whatsoever and their core philosophy is of struggling for power and maintaining it, disregarding all else. Elon Musk has become their new champion, with his recent utterances against empathy as a concept (that he and others like him don’t understand). Certain personality types are truly devoid of empathy and consider something so natural to the rest of the species as a weakness, to be held in contempt.

The “spiritual” types

The third group combines the fascist ruthlessness of the Darwinists, up to self-serving massacres of innocent people, with some type of spirituality based on one’s “ancient origins” and “connections to the land” (blood and soil, as the Nazis called it). This calls for maintaining racial purity and opposing immigration and race mixing as a duty.

Curiously, these people refer back to specific times documented in ancient history, when Paganism thrived throughout Europe, but not to earlier ones, going back to the origin of our species. Why exactly, and how they justify fixating on that period in history, no one really knows.

Some argue that Christianity usurped the genuine spirituality of European peoples, replacing it with the (blech!) teachings of Jesus, encouraging empathy, charity, morality, tolerance, forgiveness and whatnot. Never mind that these principles are essential for any society to prosper as a whole. Never mind, as well, that they live in civilised countries, enjoying the fruits of the application of these principles daily, and the protection of laws based on them.

Far from worshipping nature, they support unrestrained pollution and environmental damage through capitalism, for the monetary gain of a few; all MAGA types oppose attempts to deal with climate change. They experience increasingly strange and extreme weather phenomena, yet they still pretend that climate change isn’t happening. Ancient traditions to worship and protect nature do exist, such as those of the Native Americans, who are – surprise – not of the Nazi persuasion. They are, however, not white, hence the brave European “tribes” want American whites to dominate them.

Propagandists using Paganism to draw people into fascism, like Thomas Sheridan, may even blame extreme weather on the gods wishing to punish some country or another for adhering to leftism, in the same way fake Christians blame it on “the LGBT agenda”.

Whereas fake Christians have a limited repertoire to work with, in terms of selling abominations to their fellow believers, these types are unrestrained and can spew any improv, supposedly communicating on behalf of the ancient gods.

Their pretense of adhering to some type of spirituality enables them to still use words such as evil, wicked, demonic and so forth. They’re not able to explain how they themselves are polar opposites of these notions, when they support acts of gratuitous and extreme cruelty.

Sheridan at least has caught on and blatantly told his cult members to renounce their moral principles. Everything is in the grey zone, he claims; there are no moral absolutes (apart from what the wicked, evil, demon-possessed leftists do, of course – there is no ambiguity to that).

How else could his sell the acceptability of a mother hearing her 3 children scream and cry, trapped under the rubble, as they were dying of thirst and she was physically unable to get them out? How could he sell the limb amputations on children without anesthetic, doctors being raped to death in arbitrary detention and so forth? Unless severely disordered, people react to these things viscerally. His response is simple: don’t look. Pretend it’s not happening.

Turning against morality as a concept, obliterating the need to act in ethical ways, is the only resort for propagandists to keep manufacturing consent. It’s the logical step. The chasm is too wide between what has been deemed ethical for generations and what they want this world to turn into.

These ghouls are fighting human nature itself. It’s not natural for humans to be desensitised to extreme cruelty, extreme suffering and the wanton killing of innocents. Psychopaths, on the other hand, react with indifference or even amusement.

This net catches a vast array of people who are not overtly psychopathic, like the second group, and are averse to the fake Christian hypocrisy. These types ironically tend to be anti-establishment or at least think they are; in 2025, they have ended up supporting old style imperialism.

In the end, all 3 roads lead to the same destination. Every angle is meant to trap as many people as possible into the hell hole of pathological behaviour towards their fellow humans.

Renouncing morality to embrace MAGA

This in and of itself should tell people that they’re in a cult.

Suggestions to fundamentally modify one’s understanding of the world, accepting things they would normally find abominable, in order to follow a political direction or adapt to the times, should be unacceptable from the onset. The proposition should be outrageous.

Political propaganda makes use of people’s needs, biases, sensitivities, culture etc. This call to self-abandonment, to support Trump and Musk’s plan for the world, is next level.

Furthermore, it should say something about proponents, who admit to having renounced any principles themselves, or not having them in the first place. The fact that followers expect honesty and good intentions from them is puzzling.

Why wouldn’t they lie and gaslight for their own gain? What exactly would be wrong with that from their perspective?
