  • When building fascism one must have an eternal enemy. One that is contradictorily infinitely strong and weak. One that you can never actually eliminate, but one you can always dangle as an absolute visage of fear. Even better if you yourself, as the one building fascism, can create and control said enemy.

    The problem with picking an actual race, is you run out of them eventually. If you pick an ideology, well, you cant control its effects or the number of members effectively.

    But drugs? And drug ‘dealers’? And countries that ‘make drugs’? That’s an enemy infinitely strong and infinitely weak, one that can be taken out by a drone strike but that will worm its way in anyway, one that you can control just by invading a country and making its farmers grow poppies(afghanistan) or by funding cartels to do it themselves (Colombian gangs still receive cia funding).

    And best of all you can get people to blame the victims and whoever you uphold as the source of these drugs, so no one can actually speak out against your regime.
