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.

saying this is like saying the caterpillar and the butterfly are not the same. that's true, but one thing leads to the other. saying it like this minimizes the dangers of neoliberalism.

It only leads to the other if we let it. And we let it.

The way to not let neoliberalism lead to fascism is to not do neoliberalism.

Let it? How exactly do we hold them accountable? Hey, I know, let’s elect the democrat most responsible for building the fascist state to the highest office in the land.

I'm sorry, ""we"" did not ""let"" neoliberalism evolve into fascism. 40 years of offshoring of jobs, despair, and working class suicides have led us there. Our choices were taken away from us while Dems rebranded the party with war criminals & bankers.
