    The point isn’t to convert the fascist. It’s to humiliate them

    The point isn’t to make them feel humiliation

    Make being openly fascist an embarrassing

    Do you think about the things you say before you say them?

      If you’re having trouble following it, just ask for clarification. You’re not in a position to be an ass when you’re confused.

      It’s not to convert the fascist. It’s to make them a joke in front of everyone else, and fuck their recruitment.

      There’s actually a really interesting and funny example in history. The Superman radio broadcast from back before television started featuring stories about Superman fighting the KKK, and one of the writers had infiltrated the group to get real insider info, and then make fun of it on the show. It was a massive embarrassment for the clan, and really fucked up their operations, especially recruitment.
