    Do you really expect leftists to NOT spend all their effort dunking on other leftists? That’s why there is no more Left left, because the honest truth is most people are okay with fascism out of convenience and self preservation, that is, till fascists come knocking on their door. And even then, they’ll be more than happy to be peacefully escorted into the van. If i’m wrong there would be an armed leftists movement a la Black Panthers but with more support, but we don’t see that do we? Leftist ego’s competing at who’s theory is better doesn’t solve anything.

      They have to dunk on somebody. The easiest ones to dunk on are fascists. But who really is the fascist? I’ll give you a cheat code here: Fascist is everyone you call fascist.

        I call the people who hold accounts in the £36 TRILLION in offshore tax havens and all those who are okay with it “fascists.”

            By my metrics the majority of people are fascists, and it’s a terrifying world to live in. When I think about that £36 trillion I’m reminded of those old legends about things like a “Well of Souls” and ugly beasts hoarding and guarding food from the villages. It’s almost like these types of people have cautionary tales about them for a reason, and that we’ve been here before. Humans have always had one common monster - inhumans. Money is the religious monarchy of our day, we wonder how people could believe in witches yet people think food, science, and trade comes from money. “How can the world work without God Money?” is the dogma of our times.
