    I said unconscious… I even stated “accidentally” and said it was visual.

    But yes sometimes visual shorthand accidentally enforces an unintended message. Just like black people can be racist, or Jewish people Antisemitic - antifascist art can sometimes accidentally say that fascism is strength, indomitable, or all powerful.

    Two cops, beer guts, and laughing together, might be a more accurate description of American fascism.
