I’m not buying you either, dickhead

This is one of the silliest things I’ve seen in ages:

What the fuck is that even supposed to mean? Look, a lot of authoritarian propaganda does revolve around the idea that the present is shit and the past was glorious, and therefore the quality of the future is kind of dependent on upon recreating that past (or at least some vision of the past that may or may not have actually ever existed)… but that’s not what the original text is about anyway? It’s “my past”, not “the past”. I mean, my past is vastly more interesting than my present is now or future is likely to be, so I understand that sentiment (better than I wish I did, but hey, life’s like that these days). And for some other dickhead to come along and add “GATEWAY TO AUTHORITARIAN PARANOIA LOL” to it… just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. There’s paranoia and then there’s whatever the fuck this was supposed to be…
