Brandishing a sword of all things against an animate skeleton who has no more flesh to lacerate or blood to bleed is kind of a fitting image for the fascist delusion that overwhelming brutality will crush an oppressed people’s will. The colonized are wishfully depicted as dead, but frustratingly still walk, refusing to stay buried, their will to live after being stripped of so much a haunting mystery to the fascist cowards. Refusing to engage the mystery, they can only project their own fears - they surely sense that if their colonial grab fails, a sword would be fine tool to cut away the slave plantations and egg monopolies on which they’ve gorged.
