Orwell once said that fascism could never come to the UK, because the British people would laugh if they looked at men in uniforms goose-stepping.
The new fascists have a remedy for that. Thou shalt not laugh at us.
Well they already killed satire and stand-up comedy…
We’re honestly pretty much already there…
I don’t think that’s coincidental.
