There was a graphic some years ago showing headshots of all the female presenters on FoxNews, and they all looked like they were decanted from the same cloning facility, down to their identically blonde hair. Presumably that’s a shade of blonde that is by now synonymous with conservative-to-fascist-aiming-at-respectability politics.

The bully from the British island or the orange guy from the other side of the Atlantic?

The one is naturally blonde, and the other was before his 70s

Donald Trump you mean ? I thought he had orange hair ? /j

[–] mkwt@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

No it's orange skin, from too much cheap spray-on tan. The engineered hair artifact is pretty blond.

Well yeah, gotta look the part.

(Hitler got away with not doing it because (a) dictators don't have to follow the rules, but more importantly (b) color TV didn't exist yet.)

But even with b&w TV, you can tell if someone is blond or not.

I'll dye my hair as blonde as Aemond Targaryan if that is what it takes to beat the fascists.

Alice weidel would fit in there as well

That's what I thought as well :-(

When it's a male a wacky haircut is also required.

Donald Trump, some could count Boris Johnson but I don't really think he's "far right" enough

[–] Asafum@feddit.nl 3 points 4 months ago

Just kidding!

It's actually propaganda. Tons and tons of propaganda.

It looks like Wilders is pushing his nose up with le pen.
