This post is kind of judgy, nothing wrong with being a strongman's sub.

[–] teodor_from_achewood@lemmy.world 55 points 6 months ago (2 children)

Be a sub all you want just don't hide it by claiming that ackchuallee you're a fascist and that's the only reason you like it.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

Everyone except the person at the top of the fascist government is actually a sub.

[–] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 39 points 6 months ago

I take it to mean it's playing into a fascist's insecurities; it's only supposed to sound judgy if you're insecure about being a strongman's sub.

[–] OsaErisXero@kbin.run 13 points 6 months ago

Yeah, but the shame all plays into it. They wouldn't like it if they didn't feel bad the whole time.

halfway funny, fine to insult fascists but no need to put down subs or sluts while doing so

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 76 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Yes, but consider this:

Subs and sluts when you call them slut: ☺️🥰

Fascists when you call them sluts: 😡🤡

[–] trslim@pawb.social 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

As a sub, i approve this mesage.

[–] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 8 points 6 months ago

As someone who is not a sub....

You better like it, you slut.

umm there are absolutely a significant number of fascists out there who have that first reaction to being called a slut

part of “know your enemy” is recognizing that even the worst of the worst are not a monolith. halfway funny.

I think some of them imagine themselves to be the protagonist of the world and will be elevated to the dictator's best friend at some point. I'm basing this off having talked to an Iranian monarchist.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yep. I argued with lots of fascist online before I learned the fine art of blocking & moving on, and 99% of them seem to have main character syndrome. Like, why do they always think they'd be the dictator's right-hand guy and not one of the people licking boot on all fours?

[–] whereisk@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

"he's hurting the wrong people" bootlickers after finding out they need to bootlick.

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 11 points 6 months ago

I also know a lot of them. They do suffer from main character syndrome. One of them gets extremely angry when it's not the common people that are doing the executions as he likes to imagine it.

[–] Drivebyhaiku@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

The sort of "Band of Brothers" vibe is something I have noticed talking with the two folks from high school that fell that direction that I know. It feels like a high school clique but with parasocial relationships. Like they don't want the hassle of being king but they do want to be knights lording it over some peasants.

[–] Landsharkgun@midwest.social 30 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I don't think we should compare subs to facists, that's pretty insulting

[–] zea_64@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 6 months ago

Subs are fine, but fascists probably don't like being called that so it's a decent insult. It's bad on their terms because their terms are stupid.

[–] Theme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 27 points 6 months ago (3 children)

Wait no don't try to make me like fascism

I can still be dommed by fully-automated luxury gay space communism, right??

[–] RobotFK@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 6 months ago

Watch Ai no Kusabi to find out ;)

[–] match@pawb.social 25 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Was that not clear from the number of fashy femboys

[–] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 7 points 6 months ago

The femboy thing just makes it even funnier.

"Why are you pointing the gun at me, I thought we just were going after the transes for transing Lily Hoshikawa and Bridgette!" (Note that a lot of these types only started to pretend to care about femboys once they were forced to prove they weren't used for just gay bamboozle jokes.)

[–] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 18 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Honestly more insults would be better if they just called you a slut at the end

[–] KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml 7 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Accepting any kind of domineering makes you subject to be controlled. Don't accept it.

Unless you're trying to be a switch. In that case, bigger dick tops.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

~~What if I wanna be controlled~~

Khorn just wants to stab people in the face

[–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I assumed most would like to be that strongman

[–] TurtleJoe@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Kinda. These people like hierarchy, partially because then they know exactly where everybody stands. They of course don't want to be at the very bottom, but understand that they won't be at the top, either.

[–] brossman@infosec.pub 4 points 6 months ago

i'm only into it if it's satsuki

This has "Love me not him" incel vibes.

[–] SimplyTadpole@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

You joke, but a particular fetish I'm into's community has a really bad fascist/nazism problem, and I noticed that a lot of said fascists/nazis are, surprisingly enough, the bottoms/submissives in it. .-.
