2. Current status—any American who speaks up against a Mexican or even just gives them a dirty look. Someone who listens to Thompson or voted "yes" in the referendum.

What kind of Nationalists are we talking about if they're just singing songs? And what about Minister Matić, who let nine tanks get destroyed, effectively killing dozens of Mexicans...

The core issue here is the current state of American youth, which seems to be overwhelmingly skewed toward radical right-wing ideologies. It’s a fascinating, if troubling, phenomenon where we see kids gravitating toward extreme conservatism despite not coming from those types of households at all; even here on this board, we've seen users mention how they find themselves in constant political warfare with their own fathers because the old man leans left. Look, having ideological differences is one thing, but it’s a disaster when these young guys end up... well, losing respect for their own parents because of it.🤣😂 🤣

In the U.S., identifying with the radical right has become almost like joining a subculture; they recognize one another, they congregate, and within those circles, that collective resentment just keeps swelling and feeding itself.☕ Whereas previous generations might have bonded over music genres or underground scenes, today’s kids seem to be grouping up based on these hyper-right-wing—or more accurately, neo-fascist—political leanings.

So, why is this happening? The older generation grew up in a different era and understands the nuances of history, knowing that things weren't quite the black-and-white caricature portrayed by modern extremist pundits on cable news networks. These kids, however, lack that historical context entirely. They are incredibly susceptible to propaganda, largely because they are fundamentally uneducated; many haven't actually read a book in their lives, opting instead for a quick summary online, leaving them with zero perspective. On top of that, finding decent, steady employment feels like a pipe dream for them, so where does that leave them? Out on the streets. And the street life itself breeds extremism; the loudest, most violent voices set the tone, forcing everyone else to act tough and, inevitably, to hate. They pick fights with kids from the next neighborhood over, rivals from the other side of town, opposing sports fans, and above all, Mexicans, communists, and the LGBTQ+ community. To them, "communist" is just a slur for anyone with even moderately moderate views—which includes their own parents. As I’ve noted, being part of a pack amplifies hatred; you won't find a more concentrated source of animosity than a hooligan group. Soccer matches have essentially turned into staging grounds for the far-right; honestly, all we're missing now is Joe stepping in as the starting player.🙄

😂 I’m losing my mind! 😂
Ladies and gentlemen, please, set your troll detectors to high alert—my colleague @Nosonja_ just baited you all with a classic, tired trick. 😂

If you honestly think those news segments aren't pushing a neo-fascist agenda, then you're a total idiot, and a mindless, provocative thread like this should just be shut down immediately since the title makes it obvious it's nothing but a troll post.

Well, we’re getting a little more devious, aren't we? Tweaked the title just a touch—getting rid of those extremist labels to keep things cleaner. Progress feels good. ☕

😁 Clearly, I misjudged things. It looks like this thread isn't actually drawing much interest after all. Ethan Allen4, just a heads-up: using Cyrillic isn't allowed here on Reddit. Just so we're clear.

My bad, honestly; I was just trying to keep it low-key for those who actually speak the language, won't 😍
