Routine maybe, I don’t think it’s that boring

Except step 2 never even really happened

including any international airport, so covering almost everywhere where anyone lives

White supremacy also has nothing to do with white people actually being supreme, it’s about the narratives that shape the worldview of the people subscribing to the ideology.

So the Wikipedia article claims that Māori control about 30% of fisheries, with many citations, do you have real evidence which contradicts this? This includes things like Sealord which is one of the biggest quota owners, but is only half owned by iwi, so a genuine number would be quite a lot lower than that 30%. That’s not to say that there aren’t problems with the management, we agree about that.

That documentary is embarrassingly wrong, the overwhelming majority of companies fishing in NZ waters are huge multinationals, not owned by Māori.

And if he’s just a fascist I don’t think he need to take his justifications seriously by giving him a newly named ideology.

Giving an important branch of fascist ideas a name doesn’t “take his justifications seriously” in any sense of condoning them. It’s also not newly named, but been discussed in academic studies of far right tendencies for decades, at least since the 60s. It’s a useful category for describing a set of ideas which have substantial influence.

But I’ve never met one to my knowledge, not even online.

There are probably lots of ideologies you don’t hear about all the time. Instead of just rejecting their existence with a total lack of curiosity you could instead read about them. At least start with the Wikipedia page…

Sure, that’s the overarching category. It is a subtype of that.

I see you’ve all already had the discussion but my point wasn’t really to say that they were the main source of calories or something. But a small part of the diet can still make an important contribution to nutrition, particularly when it comes to vitamins.

Something doesn’t have to be correct or honest to be an ideology. It’s a shared doctrine among a significant part of the far right that “protection of the environment” is their purported motivation for exterminating undesirables. That’s absolutely an ideology, even if they’re wrong about its effects or even dishonest about it. I don’t believe it’s all said cynically and knowingly either, and I don’t think that Michelle Chan, in that quite accurate quote, is saying that they never believe in the stories they’re telling themselves about it. Just that the deeper cause for their actions is actually white supremacy. It would be like saying a religious ideology wasn’t an ideology just because it’s motivations are not the actual existence of some supernatural entity but instead cultural forces, bonding, the comfort of rituals etc., and I don’t think that makes much sense.

Some people have just “never seen” fascism. Shrug.

What do you mean? It certainly is. It has been, for example, an influence in several right extreme terror attacks (notably the Christchurch, NZ mass shooting in 2019 comes to mind, where the murderer explicitly described himself as such in his manifesto). Not to mention that crunchy, back-to-the land ideas are a really important part of contemporary far right propaganda.

I’d also argue that this doesn’t really sow division amongst environmentalists; just because it has ‘eco’ in the name doesn’t mean these people actually care about the environment, it’s all aesthetics.

Life was materially much harder but in the early 20th century there were real labour movements and tight communities and that counts for a lot. We have to find a way to recreate connections and a shared sense of struggle (but without pining for some glorified imaginary past like the fascists), but it might just take conditions getting a lot worse still to drive people to that.

As we saw in this story from a few months ago, yes, absolutely, manufacturers will stoop to the level of disabling devices which are prevented from exfiltrating your data. I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of TVs doing the same with the network modules but I’m too lazy to search for it now.

But I don’t want to hurt them :(

Where in their comment does it say “exactly zero users”? Oh right, it doesn’t

Be that as it may (it isn’t), this is was a website of actual for-real nazis who explicitly describe themselves as nazis.

If we’re talking specifically about this Venezuela coup attempt, Obama did equally bad things.

That would be much better.
