I call it the leftist uncanny valley.
How is "literally hitler" two points on the y-axis?
Believe it or not, you can actually get more far right lunatic. Nazi Neo-Pagan Occultism is the first thing that comes to mind just for the sheer crazy scale, but the American far right genuinely features some shit that manages to flank right against the Nazis, the difference is that they haven't been able to solidify enough power to go as far as the Nazis did.
If you'd like to keep it that way, Vote.

It's metastatic ironic edginess. They went from doing it to piss people off to doing it because they've lost their goddamned minds and read the turner diaries one too many times.
They find literal Hitler less repulsive than the leftists and libs they accuse of literally being Hitler.
