    I have always found it strange how fascists like to use K-ON and various other moe/slice of life anime for their profile pictures, anyone else agree?

      Yeah i noticed it. Idk why though, i tried to watch K-On but it, and the entire slice of life genre, is just mind-numbingly boring. Why fash with their cult of action even like that?

        With that whole cult of action thing: if you read the “Futurist Manifesto,” it’s basically about a bunch of dudes who stayed up all night doing nothing, and then as dawn hit made the sleep-deprived decision to go joyriding down some very narrow streets. Unsurprisingly, they got in a wreck. One of them took this for some kind of epiphany, and decided to found an artistic movement devoted to militarism and agressive action.

        In other words, the fascist cult of action has been from the beginning a cult of very stupid action.

          Yes, it’s clearly visible even in the actual fascist movements and states. I won’t even mention the terminally online fash.

            “What, you mean my playing HOI4 for twelve hours straight doesn’t count as actualizing the imminent idea?” – some online fash with the username 14GiovanniGentileRules88

        I can enjoy some slice of life, but yeah, no idea why fash decide to use this genre in particular for their layouts and stuff.
