Alt-right approach that co-opts pop culture characters such as Pepe the frog and Japanese anime for political messaging purposes.
The alt-right's use of japanese waifus and Pokemon Go to inculcate their young followers with Nazi ideology is an example of emo fascism.

Get the emo fascism mug.Fascism is a response by right-wing capitalists in a given country to any kind of broadly powerful working class mass democratic and libertarian social movement.
In many Western and Latin American countries (as well as some in Asia) the right tries very hard to seem like it is nice and friendly and about freedom -- until working class people are finally fed up with them and their constant exploitation and desire to control everything -- and then the right gives money and support to fringe political parties or supports right-wing generals in the military that say they will smash the workers movements. This leads to a fascist society.

Fascism was effective at supporting ruling class capitalist interests when (Mussolini, Franco, Hitler, Pinochet, General Tojo) crushed the workers movements in their respective countries.

From Dictionary.com
"A system of government marked by centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and typically a policy of belligerent nationalism and racism."
Sound like USA? Well let's have a look...
Dictator: George W. Bush
- America suppresses the opposition through media censorship. Anything the opposition says, America will use media to regard it as propaganda and therefore censor it.
America also uses Military as a method of terror to provoke the Middle Eastern countries such as Iraq and Iran. As for belligerent nationalism and racism, since 9/11 the American Government held an anti-muslim stance and used media to spread this idea. Publically they would appear to be accept of muslims but behind public eyes, their own agenda would tell a different story. For example the invasion of Iraq and seizure of their oil fields (What's wrong with giving the oil field back to the Iraqi people?), and possibly Iran to be next because of their nuclear capability. Despite the fact that America has their own nuclear capabilities far greater than any other nation.

The use of the media plays a strong role in fascism, especially in the developing of the belligerent nationalism and racism.
Example: The American government explaining to the world media their purpose in preparing their troops for a possible attack on Iran. Their concern being the nuclear capabilities of Iran. What they fail to mention is that on the other side of the world, from the Eastern point of view, America already has nuclear capabilities and enough of it to destroy their country with 1 word, and that word is "Fire!"

John: blah blah blah, blah blah blah.... (preaching about the wisdom and teachings of buddhism)

Jessica: Tantra is so much deeper than just sex, although that's a perk ;) It's actually the opportunity to find yourself and develop your soul. Not to mention connect with the universe and feel and give love!
Ted: Wow, Jessica. I see what you're saying. That is some fascinating bullshit. Now, why don't you try two things: reading a bible and sexual morality. Tantra is yoga. Yoga is centered on allowing your spirit to interact with false idols, usually associated with each chakra. Tantra is that plus sexual immority. Orgies aren't a spiritual exercise, orgies are immoral and make us no better than bonobos, aka MONKEYS. Stick to the word of God if you want the truth (bible).
