welp that's a nice hot take, we must appease the nazis to prevent the nazis

this poo poo has been on plain display in the eu and us. who the gently caress would've thought the daughter of jean-marie la pen who said the holocaust was a 'minor detail' of ww2 would get 37% of the vote in france 30 years ago? and this is when, while the economy isn't booming, there's no depression or anything like that. i can only imagine how much worse it would be then.

Exploration is ill-advised.
The resurgence of fascism is inevitable when liberal centrists and conservatives owned wholesale by sociopathic corporations desperately suppress leftists and leave fascism as the more socially acceptable response to a broken system that's turned to robbing the middle class back into poverty so the giga-rich can increase their high scores

Whoa gramps get with the times, everyone should be thrilled with enriching the wealthy at the expense of everyone else. Unless you're a NATIONALIST

Wow, now you're recommending fascism as a viable alternative to leftism in the fight against global capitalism?

I can't help but label this 'boiguoise fragility'.

How many people will need to get new jobs when the market moves the energy sector away from black stuff? 60 year olds will have to retire early, and people will have to find new jobs that pay less and have less benefits. Won't some one think of the American coal miner and oil driller? We should limit the amount of energy produced by other sources. In order to retain these high paying jobs.

Saying something is bound to happen isn't a recommendation, it's a prediction based on historical precedent

The real answer to the problem of not enough work to go around is a basic income.

Rich people seem to forget part of the social contract that comes with "you provide work and pay us for it" is the implied threat underneath of "or we will loving take it from you."

That's historically the way it's always been. Acknowledging that is not a recommendation we do it, because it's likely to happen regardless of our opinions
