I think some of them imagine themselves to be the protagonist of the world and will be elevated to the dictator's best friend at some point. I'm basing this off having talked to an Iranian monarchist.
Yep. I argued with lots of fascist online before I learned the fine art of blocking & moving on, and 99% of them seem to have main character syndrome. Like, why do they always think they'd be the dictator's right-hand guy and not one of the people licking boot on all fours?
"he's hurting the wrong people" bootlickers after finding out they need to bootlick.
I also know a lot of them. They do suffer from main character syndrome. One of them gets extremely angry when it's not the common people that are doing the executions as he likes to imagine it.
The sort of "Band of Brothers" vibe is something I have noticed talking with the two folks from high school that fell that direction that I know. It feels like a high school clique but with parasocial relationships. Like they don't want the hassle of being king but they do want to be knights lording it over some peasants.
