Hello!

I've noticed in online platforms like Tiktok, right wingers use these tactics towards an audience for gain.

I feel like this hasnt been discussed enough...

For example, they call their opinions "the truth" and act like they are the "whistleblowers" of society. To understand what I mean, they say things like "people just cant handle the truth" or "open your eyes and see". Its annoying and its pretty ironic that these comments are coming from fascists or right wing believers. They also use terms like "cope" or "copium" if someone disagrees on their stance.

I also despise that most of the internet memes and trends come from right wing or toxic masculinity circles (sigma, low cortisol, agartha, etc) and the thing that shocks me is that SOME left wingers ALSO use these memes to as a response like these low cortisol memes that our ideology is better. Example of good messaging but weird execution of that messaging. I get that, but isnt that spreading the influence of these right wing and incel inspired memes even more??

I am also pretty cautious of this Saturn worship conspiracy theory posts. Dont get me wrong, I enjoy conspiracy theories sometimes, but it can come to a point where you can see people commenting that "H\*tler tried to save us" (in context they are blaming jews within these conspiracy theories like the Sarurn worship, the black cube, Baal, etc and think mustache man was trying to save us and did nothing wrong, holocaust denier type stuff.)

Its concering considering that these types of content are pulling Gen Z and Gen Alpha audiences.

One more thing is that they use philosophers like Nietzsche and Schnopenaur as well as other philosophies like nihilism, existentialism, doomerism, etc. Now, even though I dont align with these these philosophies, I still respect them and also it can come with both left and right spaces. Even things like misanthropy, which even though I understand their points, I am still not a hardcore misanthrope myself.

But most of the right wingers I see online tend to use Nietzsche to align with their N\*zi beliefs. Fact: H\*tler was known to use Nietzsche's philosophy and twist it into their own agenda. One of Nietzsche's sister was also involved with this, being friends with N\*zi germany.

They also use Schnopenaur misogynistic and anti gay quotes as well.

And this is where the inferior acting comes in, they consider themselves as misanthropes or outsiders of society while being right wingers themselves, to probably gain followers that relate on misanthropy or feel like outside society, and I know that generations today have this relationship when it comes to existentialistic philosophy, which can be a perfect tool now to spread propaganda into philosophy, to implement false information. Its becoming quite trendy tbh.

Note that nihilism and doomerism or pessimism are not the same.

Also, I believe that the issue with doomerism is that it can be subjective, which means that someones POV of what dystopia means, can differ. It could be a right wing doomer or a left wing doomer, blaming on which system is bad or worse. It could be a doomer saying that the West is falling because of left wing feminism, but it could be the other way around saying that capitalism is the reason why the West is falling.

I dont have proof or screenshots but just search on Tiktok or on reddit relation to politics like Israel and Palestine conflict or Saturn worship or Ubermensch relations to N\*zism or philosophers thoughts on women and you could see results.

To my fellow Anarchist, is it just me or I notice that right wing spaces on the internet use these "tactics" for gain (memes, acting inferior, using philosophy as an excuse, etc)
