@admitsWrongIfProven No harm in social media when the weather is bad. Although I've heard that in Germany there is no such thing as bad weather, only bad clothing 😎

@chestycougth The hazards are more like Nazis, in suits. The weather is nothing i could not deal with.
Do you have a stable environment regarding fascists, the abscence of, or climate?
@admitsWrongIfProven
Nowadays, I probably wouldn't do that, all other things being equal, due to recent events across the pond and on the world stage and the fact that there are multiple chapters of antifa with presumably different ideas on what it means to be antifa.

As for Nazis in suits (politicians?), I'm not sure. You can only tell who one really is when they have power. And Nigel Farage doesn't have enough of that to make hiding his power level unnecessary.
There is plenty of the more genteel kind of authoritarianism though (digital ID, OSA, age verification, speech controls, surveillance, etc, etc)

@admitsWrongIfProven We've been experiencing a surge in nationalist sentiment for a few years now. Much like the rest of the western world really. France, Germany, Italy, the US.
I think it's largely because living standards have been declining and many people are bitter about it and want to find something to blame for it. It usually ends up being immigrants or LGBT or some other minority.

Well, I have seen various Antifa-styled "Wales against fascism" stickers around town some years ago. At the time I associated them with the footage I saw once of people in black attacking people at a pro-life protest in America and scratched it up.
