Well okay. It doesn’t “kill” fascists, since it’s actually a blunt-tipped arrow wrapped in a pool noodle. It’s more that it’s role playing at killing fascists.
Although not actually “fascists.” More like orcs and vikings, kinda running around the park in costumes. And I’m not sure about orc politics. They might be more anarcho-syndicalist, when you think about it.
But those styrofoam shields? That foamy shit will fuck your fascist shit up!

Stick to making movies, playing volleyball, breathing your smog filled air, sitting in traffic and surfing in your frigid shark infested waters. I really think you west coasters have been smoking too much medical marijuana to think anyone, let alone a football team, would give up Florida for the hell you live in.
Hey. Let’s not fight. We’re connected by the Interstate 10 — we’re practically related.
In response to Pasta&Vinegar, two extremes of perspective: Los Angeles (or… how to drive a car in narrow hilly streets) versus the eight-lane highways of Montpellier.
All cities have someone who dislikes them, even hates them. But Los Angeles may be unique as a target of reflexive worldwide disgust. It is disliked on a mythological level. It’s a metonym for everything that people hate about their own good cities. Pollution, disconnection, shallowness, disparity, violence, mediation, erasure… Los Angeles.
Romanticized places have to exist on some level as romantic fossils, and every flattering tourist asks the residents to measure their lives against a touristic ideal. One of the best things about LA is how it’s hidden behind a cloak of misunderstanding. It’s harder to suck the life out of something you can’t even see, much less understand.
Pity the romanticized places that have to measure themselves against the ideals of tourists. And pity the tourist who ends up lost in the narrow, winding streets of Los Angeles.
