To me this meme comes across as fascist , rascist and prejudiced.

You have become 200%, what you supposedly hate so much.

" Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you."

Lol what? You talking about the bong video you’re replying to?

No he's saying making a captain planet meme about a country being shitty makes you a fascist. Because that makes sense

But don't you see, if you complain about a right wing police state that has the highest prison population per capita on the planet and dominates half the planet with its overwhelming militarism, you're the real fascist.

Fascism is when conservatives are made uncomfortable about ugly statistics, btw

Having known people who live through real police states, America is not a police state

Well let's tie onto the "America isn't that much of a police state" argument so we can one day get to mega shithole levels of police state

No, no... Wait.... He has a point.

Little did I know that ripping a bong hit was the same as staring into the abyss. The fascism of it all... I've been such a fool.
