incredible brain melting slop.

all the great hits of liberalism revisited.

democracy under attack equally from the right and the left!

some masturbation about post ww2 hegemony being for the good of all mankind.

remember to vote for genocide joe, i guess.

    anti-democratic sentiments are on the rise both on the left and the right side of the spectrum populism and gaslighting has become acceptable discourse

    the left? really? in the west?

    also of course zero reflection on why people are flocking to these gaslighters and populists when they didnt before. it's all to do with education in history, probably...

      To them "democracy" means liberal democracy. Opposing it in favor of any other form of democracy is "anti-democratic".

        yeah sure, and i guess the sentiment is on the rise on the left too, but since it's basically unorganized and entirely unrepresented in parliaments, mentioning it in the same breath as the very real and present menace of fascism breathing down our necks is ... is fascist shit.

        and that's just for him in his comfy liberal democracy in europe. for many, fascism has been the slavering beast eating their flesh for a while now...
