A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

What if we find out one day, it was all an organized game, to screw over the citizens?

I don't live in the US so i am kinda confused how conspiracies and interactions between opposing parties are synonimous with the development of fascism

It doesn't have to do with just the US, it's a very similar pattern wherever fascism rises. People's dissatisfaction with their corrupt and inept government is leveraged by fascist groups. It's what happened in Germany in the 20th century, in China, in Hungary etc.
