Increasingly of late, I can't help noticing how fascistic leaders around the globe (both historically and today) seem to jump at the chance to boost and back each other up internationally even as they routinely sow contempt and mistrust to divide people within their own nations.
I'm aware (I think) of what it is about the reality they're living in that makes this seem consistent to them-- each "nation" (in the nationalist sense) for itself-- but even in that light it seems they should realize not scapegoating/outright persecuting subgroups of the people within your borders could be productive and a boon to your nation as well.
