Brey, don't sleep on the nihilism. I told you so many times the nihilism is an essential component to the fascist movement - especially THIS fascist movement, being run by billionaire nazi cultists and fueled by Christian end times prophecy. There is a certain element of "if I can't have the world I demand then nobody can have a world at all" to this whole thing. That's why they don't cry when Trump "destroys America."

And to be clear, they're lying. When the fires are burning around them, when the jackboots get turned on THEM, you see how much they care. They care a lot.
This is like a child being told to stop breaking something and then smashing it in response because "can't tell me what to do."
And that doesn't make them less dangerous; it's just like everything else about the Nazis, it's not a fully formed ethos. They have not thought it through. They are ppl who purposely replace truth with feeling.
In the cracker fascist calculus, America belongs to them. And if they can't have the America they want, a patriarchal, evangelical, white supremacist America where the women know their place, Mexicans work in the kitchen and queers are lynched, then it would be better if there were no America at all.
Don't sleep on the nihilism. It's also why they don't give a shit about climate catastrophe.
