Lots of cults do this to seperate people from their former lives and reinforce their commitment to the group
That explains why conservatives are now called Nazis.
No, that's because they act like Nazis.
Now? They’ve always been. :p
they’ve, as a whole, become a looot more like nazis than ever before….
honestly i think we’re in a “the boy who cried wolf” situation. So many people have been running around saying stuff like, “seat belt ticket!?! they’re nazis!!!”.
but now we actually have jackbooted thugs, kidnapping innocent people, not even accused of crimes, and shipping them off to life imprisonment/death, and we’re still having a hard time explaining that this is actually nazi shit.
republicans have not always been nazis, nazi salutes and ethnic cleansing is nazi shit that’s actually happening now.
I do not disagree and add that the cried wolf “dilution” is on purpose. In the same way “conspiracy nut” was tossed around with distracting fluff while shit like Tonkin was happening.
