Thank god the only non fascists in history, the Soviets, never forcibly resettled or starved ethnic minorities out of fear they might betray their beloved non-fascist overlords once the Germans came. Because if that happened, you would look like a total idiot.

Genocide, invented by and unique to fascism. World history consists of socialists and fascists and started in the 19th century.

"I will never compromise with fascism" I say as I awkwardly invade Poland in accordance with my treaty with a fascist country.

AlexanderCA posted:Racial laws and colonies predate the existence of fascism and even the nation state. You realize fascism is a actual political movement with defining characteristics and a historical origin era right? Yes and for whatever reason you seem to think that America, Britain and its settler colonies, and France were somehow not developing during this historical era, that they did not influence its development and weren't themselves fascist. That fascism isn't a facet of decaying capitalist imperialism and is instead just an ideal movement with no material basis.

So yeah, anything that isn't socialism is fascism. Got it. In fact from the dawn of time until the October revolution, only fascism.

I hate Karl Marx for inventing fascism, on account of being a writer writing under capitalism.

Not America itself. Capitalism is in a state of constant decay. Its internal contradictions can be assuaged, but capitalist crises are inevitable and increasing in tempo and volume. It will end with either our destruction or its.

Herstory Begins Now posted:It's pretty common that people in charge of massively sadistic power structures are fairly benevolent personally. You guys might want to look up narcisstic sociopaths, because it's they easiest thing for them to be charming and affable in order to manipulate people. I agree that calling such people 'monsters' is more a hindrance than a help in understanding them, but having no conscience or empathy is a defining characteristic, so don't kid yourselves that bloody dictators or cartel bosses are 'just people like everyone else.'

He's going to fund his own candidate for president to get revenge eventually. Because that's the world we live in now, where the rich nakedly buy power to direct entire nations to fight their personal feuds for them. Just like the good old days.
