-
A surprised looking person pops in to existence on a floating rock surrounded by fire, next to the devil.
-
The person asks "wait a second-- why'd I end up in hell??"
-
The devil, now taking up the entire frame, replies: "because centrism enables fascism"
You're viewing a single thread.
The capitalist status quo is protected by a political wing we call "liberalism" and a paramilitary wing we call "fascism."
Carrot and stick, good cop/bad cop - pick your metaphor.
For far too long, leftists have laboured under the delusion that liberals are merely "misguided" people that can be "pushed" left as soon as we could get them to read this or that book by our favourite Beardy McDeadguy. This kind of understanding of these people we call "centrists," "moderates," and, by far the most accurate term, "liberals," completely ignores the fact that it is liberalism - not fascism - that is the true ideology of privilege. Privilege that means that liberals are even more invested in the maintenance of the status quo that the rank and file of fascism are.
The left has always proven itself capable of defeating fascists - but it seems that it has no real answer to the insidious, co-opting tentacles of the liberal and the mountain of lies liberalism is built upon.
You're right. I'm a liberal and we don't like you leftists. Get out of our party and start your own. You're the real fascism enablers.
Your party didn't support gay marriage rights until what 2012 (at the behest of actual leftists and when it finally became politically expedient) and its major health care success was a Heritage Foundation plan full of means testing. It also actively supports an ongoing genocide.
Liberalism can never inherently provide a useful answer to the problems of capitalism, inequality, and climate change because it must protect private property rights and capital. Your party answers to corporate interests and that is a known fact.
Trump literally ran on anti-NAFTA and uses immigration as a scapegoat for peoples' economic woes.
You’re the real fascism enablers.
Keep telling yourself that, liberal... especially when you watch the liberals you vote for "reaching across the aisle" to your fascist cousins.
So your solution is to increase the genocide and hostility while also pushing us further away from democracy? That just sounds like you're resigned to being stupid and evil.
So your solution is to increase the genocide and hostility
That's not my "solution," liberal - that is what your precious status quo will be doing anyway.
No, that is a choice that you made. The two options were less and more and by abstaining from less you got more.
No, that is a choice that
Again, liberal. That’s not my “solution” - that is what your precious status quo will be doing anyway.
