      Fascism's very own symbol is just something that is totally unwieldly and not actually an improvement. Fitting, actually.

      Like this had to be a troll job in the Roman era. Some rich nerd was getting made fun of for being axe-deficient so he commissioned the baddest-ass axe he could imagine and the axing community gave him this.

          I can't find it atm but some nerd from Vanguard was actually making these and selling them for like $125 a pop. He was buying axes from home depot and a bunch of dowels and that was it

          "My Name is Hate" was recently exposed as Matthew Brien Stafford of, or recently of, Seattle, btw. He had known connections with TWP and Atomwaffen.

          Well, the fasces was never seen as a weapon.* It was exclusively a symbol, usually used to signify strength in unity as well as civil and military power. The United States Army doesn't ride into battle on a bald eagle grasping some arrows, either. It's still widely used in

          Fasces for the Romans, combination revolver shotgun pistols for the confederates, giant wasteful tanks, missiles, and battle ships for the Axis, and now tacticool $15,000 AR-15's for trump supporters.
