Pro/con listing “underground nazi resistance” vs “Canada’s expedited entry for medical professionals” was not on my bingo card, but… here we are.
The writers for this season like reboots way more than I expected.

this is increasingly what I believe too, especially regarding fascism: it is the ideology of pure indulgent feeling, unchecked by reason or consistency. that's why so much of it is built around empty aesthetics that feel strong or important but have no substantive ideas beneath them.
This mirrors closely my idea (spurred by reading Robert Sapolsky) that at its core, populism is the politics of gut social instincts - our default social mode, inherited from primates. Baboons have no ideological beliefs but tons of MAGAesque social opinions - xenophobia, pro-hierarchy, etc.
