It’s not enough to fight fascism. If you don’t deliver on the promise of democracy then fascism will find its way in.

It seems like @TheDemocrats are Fascist. Look at @SenSanders who wants to centralize government control, reintroduce classism, install a proletariat and take away all rights.

What "democracy"? cambridge.org/core/journals/… " . . economic elites and organized groups representing business interests have substantial independent impacts on U.S. government policy, while average citizens and mass-based interest groups have little or no independent influence."

fascism was originally the merging of state and corporate. We have been there for at least a generation. We have democracy only in the sense that there are elections in which the majority wins. But those elections are sponsored 100% by the corporate donors.

In advanced countries, fascism goes hand in hand with socialism. Only undeveloped countries have gone to left socialism - and usually by force.

Biden provoked a needless war with Russia and Dems kicked Green Party candidates off their ballot. That's fascism.
