I’ve seen this before, and I just had the curiosity to see what it was from. Apparently the original, Hitchcock said “insomnia” not “fascism.” Still a good meme though, but I’m still glad I know the origin.
You must convince people that minorities are a threat. By contrast, the world knows Nazis are dangerous, and I will not allow even a moment of my mental energy will be wasted trying to reason with a Nazi. The hatred they ooze is not within reason, and it doesn’t deserve the miniscule amount of respect thats required to have a conversation.
When they are not allowed to engage with their detractors, they whine and pound the table. It makes me smile.
That’s a good question. How far must we go to ensure that “Never Again” is reality? The resurrection of fascism in the US and Germany show that mere social ostracism or even outlawing Nazi rhetoric outright does nothing when people get complacent and the capitalist elites start spewing propaganda.
Well, not all the way evenly. It’s fine to have relatively rich and poor. Money should be a measure of what your society owes you, and society owes my doctor more than it owes my deadbeat… whatever, who just doesn’t want to get a job.
Make that doctor as many lattes and avocado toasts as he wants.
Everyone working 40 hours a week should be able to ask their neighbors for things like “take my garbage from the curb to the dump” or “educate my kids” or “make me a sandwich”. That is the concept of money at its core.
We’ll say the going rate for a skilled worker is $100k a year with a working lifetime of ~40 years, about $4m in total. Ain’t nobody out there that deserves the lifetime’s work of 250 people working solely for them, 40 hours a week, ~44 weeks a year. (That’s about a billion dollars.) Yeah, maybe you can control that many people or more if you’re working towards a common purpose and providing value for others, but that would be a billion dollars in gross income that’s redistributed, not net profit for one person.
I mean, I don’t have the energy to discuss specifics, but I think at a very base level we agree here that people should contribute to society as much as they can and get what they need and that nobody should just get passive income.
What’s your vision of no tolerance?

No shelter. No compromise. No conversation.

We must ensure nobody gets absolute power, because power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
You keep wealth distributed evenly among a population and have their needs met and these things don’t happen.
