fascism happens when all the alternatives to look worse than shaving your head and going around beating the poo poo out of people for poorly explained reasons

when you realize that fascism is winning you don't go around telling people that fascism is bad. everyone knows that fascism is bad. it's loving retarded and nobody ever actually thought it was a good idea. you look inward and go "wait what the gently caress are we doing wrong that everyone wants to go do that poo poo instead of listening to us?"

Thatīs great, whereīd you get that idea from though? The history of fighting fascism?

The only tactic that has ever worked against fascism, historically, is to beat it down. It's too bad insufferable liberals are loving obsessed with their idea that All Opinions and Ideologies Are Equal and Deserve a Fair Say. Let them have their platform guys. let them march in the streets and use the power of the internet to recruit dissatisfied people to their cause. Let's not bother to offer them actual alternatives; That's Radical Leftism, which is bad. Ever heard of HORSESHOE THEORY? I prefer my inactivist centrist liberalism. let them grow. nothing bad is going to happen. Don't fight against it, otherwise you're just as bad as them.

The reason that fascism will rise again despite the fact that we actually know what it is and exactly how to avoid it is loving liberals.

being a fascist doesn't actually mean you have to shave your head that was just a trend among a certain subset in the 80's and 90's

he campaigned for the "stay" side and still thinks we should stay. Basically it's a bit of a rebuff to his position on the whole thing, it's zeroed his credibility and it would go down badly for him to be leading the way in determining how to get us out, when everyone knows he doesn't think we should be getting out in the first place.

also the tory party would probably knife him in the back lol, for the above and other reasons

lol yeah dude

i don't think you realise but any leftist most definitely opposes the neoliberal hellhole that is the EU

the worrying part of brexit for leftists is not the consequences of the vote itself, rather that the result was undeniably swayed to leave by the ridiculous racist and nationalist sentiment being espoused as of late

whenever democracy happens the radicals on the losing side bitching about how democracy sucks

in this instance it's people in dnd bitching about how it's old white people's faults

if remain had won it'd be /pol/ bitching about how it was the immigrant's faults

it boils down to people saying that certain segments of the population should be denied suffrage for not agreeing with them, and it's always stupid and it always happens and if you look at the specific people who end up bitching about it always ends up being the best argument for the merits of democracy because holy gently caress, if we had a dictator it could be one of those guys
