I don't get it though, I don't even read Marx. The fact that it was Russia and China who stopped fascists last time, and might have to do it again because the West is doing the opposite of stopping fascism, how is that Marxist? It's literally what happened.

I know right, ML Tankies are so much worse than fascist capitalist Nazi's, they sure spoil everything amirite (watches a capitalist do a nazi salute at a presidential inauguration). Lets continue to ignore politics and see where this goes.

I'm not holding my breath on neolib democrats taking over anything, they'll be quicker to side with the fascists for convenience and self preservation.

"It’s a much smaller population" literally your second sentence, or do you not comprehend your own writing? Why is their smaller population relevant?

That's what I thought.

Who do you think will stop them then? Are you counting on Americans to "rise up" like the average German moderate in the 1930's did?

Just because an island has a smaller population doesn't make it any more or less predisposed to egalitarianism, nor do large populations have to be predisposed to authoritarianism.

Time for peace is long gone, we've already let it get too far at this point.

I'd like to believe that there are good cops out there that will be like "hey wait a minute" and when push comes to shove they'll be some of the greatest allies of the people, who protects the people and not just the powerful. I'd like to believe.

I see a lot of neoliberal fascist democrats in this thread, seeing a lot more of them on lemmy.world now. They'll sooner blame a "tankie" on the internet than their own beloved party who sold out to fascists. Neolibs still haven't figured out that red/blue are just two sides of the same fascist coin, and are quick to turn on other leftists (because they're actually right wing af)

EDIT - Just to add, can't wait to see you neolib Democrats side with fascists out of convenience and self preservation. Oh wait you're already doing it.

It has to be a takeover of the Democratic party.

Who and which billionaire would do that?
