This is such a brilliant way to understand MAGA's determination to destroy everything: "Fascists are residual culture that refuse to go away." It goes back to the fact that the US never adequately punished/held accountable the Confederacy's proponents after the Civil War.

This is why fascism is for losers. It is the last gasp of a group of ideologues who realize that they've already lost the future and have nothing to lose by burning it all down. Everything made more sense when I realized that a few years ago. Fascists are residual culture that refuse to go away.
