Fascist is a code word for "I don't like their politics, but I am not articulate enough to explain why". It's lost all other meaning by now.

Fascist is still bad even if the term is widely misused.

We are still suffering from the 2008 crash and the more democrats try to pretend its not real the more voters slip through their fingers into madness.

That's because most Democrats are still capitalists at the end of the day, and why I say they are more similar to the Trump conservatives that claim to hate them then they are The Actual Left.

Our form of capitalism is too far gone for incrementalism. Drastic measures will be necessary, it's why we say "socialism or barbarism" and it appears some mfers are so brainwashed by the rich to hate everyone who isn't identical to them that they are leaning towards barbarism.

I agree with you in every way, but electing the democrats is as incremental as you can get, and like saying "I believe in our system, and the only way to solve it is by working on it from within"

That is saying incrementalism, because if you believe in the system you believe in incrementalism.

The left thinks anyone who doesn't believe in the system is a literal domestic terrorist, and they want all of that discussion to stop.

How you cant see a march on the capitol by a guy in a bear suit is as drastically NOT incremental as possible just makes no sense to me.

I believe with all my heart occupy wallstreet was the most patriotic thing our generation has done, and I believe the 2nd most is when they got so mad they flipped to trump and then took it to washington.

The system is broken, and the broken part is washington.

If you can handle voting for BOTH parties, youll be able to get ALL the rich corruption.

They were trying to install a fascist dictatorship in which people like me would get helicopter rides and people like my spouse would already be dead

Better or worse than 1916 when Rosa said it?

It alludes to monarchy btw - regal barbarism.

Just different. I dunno. We still misuse the terms "left" and "right" and all kinds of other crap from the French revolution, lots of phrases morph in usage over time

I don't want to be King Shit of Turd Mountain, I want humans to attempt to build utopia. As close as we can get

Don't mistake my unwillingness to bother explaining your shit beliefs to you for inability, thanks

I'm capable of it, it's just proven to be a complete waste of time on this forum
