This public humiliation ritual, terror & harm by dominant segment of society against targeted groups is all Nazis need to be able to recruit more Nazis into the fold & make themselves popular. Nation–State & its concentration of power at the top, is a must for Nazism to establish its foothold, grow & execute much larger Nazi plans successfully.
This behavior will only escalate from public humiliation rituals & "legal" kidnappings, to much higher level in stages.
Based on current trajectory Empire is in, soon this will evolve into cataloging all random crimes involving white people where the alleged perpetrator is not white, and those alleged crimes will be boosted into white people's timeline in West (esp Empire).
This goes on for a while till street level Nazis acquire strength & over a period of time, there will be physical attacks against minorities & some of these will escalate to killings too. These attacks/killings is what builds them more credibility within Nazi circles & those who are closeted Nazis, the Nazis will be presented as the saviors of dominant community members, the Nazi manufactured (always State enabled & Capital funded) large scale friction will be painted as dominant population being under constant attack by weaker segments in society (despite being systematically persecuted in society).
This a time tested strategy of Nazism, successfully field tested in so many societies. Our criminal & authoritarian regime installed a Nazi regime (from my community) in our shithole, with many decades of experience with this sort of shit. I have seen exactly same shit playing out successfully in many other shitholes too.
There is no guarantee that the trajectory is the same in every shithole incl Empire, but this simple Nazi path is a time tested & field tested strategy, proven to work in many other shitholes.
Empire is on exactly that path.
@flawed The Five Phases of MAGA:
1. It never happened.
2. OK, it happened, but not the way you said.
3. It happened, but it wasn't illegal.
4. It happened and it was illegal, but there's not a damned thing you can do about it.
5. It happened, we're proud of it, and you're a traitor for questioning it.
