    I need to write a longer essay on this, because this has really been getting to me lately.

    The western left’s use of the term fascism, is borderline white-supremacist at this point. Fascism was a form of colonialism that died by the 1940s, and is only allowed to be demonized in public discourse, because it was a form of colonialism directed also against white europeans. It was defeated, and Germany / Italy reverted to the more stable form of government for colonialism: bourgeois parliamentarism.

    It was nothing different than euros and the US themselves hadn’t done against Asia, Africa, and Latin America for hundreds of years.

    These articles conveniently get to ignore the atrocities and still ongoing neo-colonialism of their own countries, never having to reckon with their own history or current state, and place all the blame on a dead political form.

    The only difference between the US and the Nazis for example, is that the nazis also targeted white euros and failed their attempts at genocide; the US carried out a genocide against its indigenous population and succeeded.

      fascists are the imperialist who lost. yes.

      everyone also forget that the military complex have employees. imagine that part of the defense budget goes to personel… it’s the single larger workers organization in the USA. and on top of that huge mass of people you then have cops etc.

      and these people have communities, vote, etc. they are never mentioned anywhere. it’s either rednecks vs trans techno liberals or something with race.

        I have no idea where you’re going with this. Yes, people who work for the US killing machine / war industry vote. What’s your point? And what on earth does your last sentence mean?

          they are the larger category in the usa and are completely removed from commentary and research, as if they are invisible.

          fascism exist in the usa because most of the Middle class makes a living killing and sabotaging worker movements even though they don’t employee anyone or have anything to gain from all that other than a fat paycheck.

          and academics bend themselves trying to justify things on some collective dad issue.

          for rosenthal everything in the world is because he wasn’t loved by his white dad. and he project that on every social issue lol.
