No, neoliberalism is not “just as bad.” It is stupid. It is wrong. It is treacherous. It is fucked up. But. it. is. not. fascism.

Considering this was your take yesterday, I highly doubt you know what you're talking about.
During World War II, fascists and Nazis were trying to take over the world and Americans marshaled all our efforts to push them back. Today, Americans are deciding whether or not to give them a second term.

Capitalism is worse then Fascism, Fascism is a short term problem, Capitalism is long term.

The Patriot Act, which @joebiden claims to have written is as bad. The Crime Bill of 94 which Joe Biden wrote is as bad. The Bankruptcy Reform Act is as bad. The things Joe Biden are proud of devestated poor people in this country. And it's as bad.

In a country with checks and balances, the difference between fascism and neoliberalism is what? A dictator in the white house? Our government is so against the people that a dictator in the white house looks a lot like "Biden is a nicer guy who will exploit us the same."

Bad take. They have been enabling in many cases. Doing as little as possible to stop anything in others. They pretend to be our friends, when they are not.

If you want it to see this kind of talk change, you need to change the way you talk to - and lead - your followers. Have a good Sunday, Marianne. Sending you loving kindness.
