Literally any mention of some supposed 'western civilization' or 'western culture'. Like just say the 14 words already, cause we all know that's what you believe in. Fucking coward

Way too keen on the Imperium of Man or the Star Wars Empire or "humanity, fuck yeah" stuff in fiction.

Ya, why is that exactly? The "humanity, fuck yeah" stuff I remember loving when I was a young 4chan dweeb, but at some point it started to make me uncomfortable and I'm not sure why. I figured it was just the cringe of that trope being overplayed in reddit writing prompt suggestions, but there definitely could be something else there, related to in-groups or maybe the victimization makes it appeal to fascists. Idk lol.
