Sexual repression + adherence to a shame culture. They constantly think about sex but have no way to publicly let out these thoughts without being shunned by their peers, so they use politics as a vehicle for that. Fascism is based in male sexual insecurity.
That also explains their obsession with interracial relationships in media (racism aside). Whether they’re watching “BBC porn” (bc you know it’s not us black dudes watching that, it’s dehumanizing and weird) or getting mad when white women date black (or any nonwhite) men, it’s all rooted in an obsession with perceived sexual inadequacy.
Not only do they think other (often black) men are physically superior. They perceive us as morally degenerated when we do engage in what are, in reality, healthy sexual practices. But, and this is crucial, their shame at their own actual, hidden sexual depravity makes them project a twisted morality on others. That’s why it seems every accusation they make is actually a confession.
In their minds, all of life is a zero sum struggle to outcompete other men for limited resources. But their sexual inadequacy creates a fundamental challenge to their masculinity. And rather than developing a healthy understanding of manhood, they’d simply destroy (read: ruin, cast down, kill) the competition.
