"Fashionbly Fashy"
https://sinkers.org/stage/?p=4076
"Not a single Roman work of art — sculpture, coinage, or painting —
displays a salute of the kind that is found in Fascism, Nazism, and
related ideologies... It is also unknown to Roman literature and is
never mentioned by ancient historians of either republican or imperial
Rome. The gesture of the raised right arm or hand in Roman and other
ancient cultures that is attested in surviving art and literature had a
significantly different function and is never identical with the modern
straight-arm salute."
— Martin Winkler, in "The Roman Salute: Cinema, History, Ideology"
...just in case you run into any fashy apologists or Musk symps trying
to explain it away by saying it's a "Roman Salute".
So just cut the crap already, 'cos all the wide-open fash are wide-open
loving it and — like the original — the Early 21st sequel also features
craven-ass collaborators, in the form of the Democratic Party.
