What an obnoxious, privileged thing to say when you live with the consequences of neither. Go look at pictures of cluster bomb victims in Yemen, Syria, Libya and see if you come back with the same conclusion.
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.

Marianne, please. How can you look at this and still draw the same conclusion? People’s lives are being destroyed in the end anyway. There’s no distinction at all. link.springer.com/article/10…

A nuclear bomb is not as bad as a nuclear explosion, but the are not alternative things, but different stages of the same process. Neoliberalism is NOT an alternative to fascism. It is the process that leads to it.

Barack Obama started all 3 of those wars. Did Biden speak out against that? And how many wars has Trump started?

Everyone out there turning on Marianne, talking about, "your book sucks now" bullsh!t because she had the nerve to try and tell you one of the most obvious facts in politics (that fascism and neoliberalism aren't the same thing) are an embarassment.

Is it reasonable to expect that some people might not want to support the neoliberal candidate, if the difference between neolibealism and fascism is not enough to prevent those bombs from being dropped?

So you’re aware of the murderous policies of the Obama, Bush, and Clinton years... why is Trump worse? Is it because you fear that he might murder people? I’m basically trying to figure out what’s worse than these decades-long policies of the US

if you were in one of these countries getting destroyed by us you would see Obama presidency = destruction Trump presidency = destruction Biden presidency = destruction how could they think it was anything but the same?

So do all the Democrat-run cities brutalizing protesters not count as fascism?
