The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Opposition to abortion is high, as is homophobia and anti-gay legislation and national policy.
Writing
Words put onto paper. Or fonts rendered on a page.
Supremacy of the Military
Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.
Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause
The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.
Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights
Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of “need.” The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.
Powerful and Continuing Nationalism
Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.
Terminal Lucidity Stories
Terminal lucidity is an uncanny phenomenon, a final gift from those who are leaving us, when clarity briefly pierces the fog of decline.
The Dangers of Kink-Shaming
Another silly joke I came up with a while ago. I always wanted to make it into a webcomic, so here it finally is. I’m not sure how inebriated I was when I came up with this one.
There Are Two Wolves Inside
Another attempt at a simple webcomic. I thought this was funny, maybe you will as well. I may have been a few drinks in when I thought this one up.
Wireless Earbud Touch Controls
I’ve finally jumped on the wireless earbud bandwagon and I really enjoy using them. Except for one major flaw, which you can probably tell from the title. I don’t understand who in their right mind decided that these things needed touch controls.
