Milton Friedman once said that the “society that puts equality before freedom will end up with neither”. He was right.

Aspects of liberalism go against the grain of human nature. It requires you to defend your opponents’ right to speak, even when you know they are wrong. You must be willing to question your deepest beliefs.

You must accept the victory of your enemies at the ballot box, even if you think they will bring the country to ruin.

    This is the "fascism is capitalism in crisis" explanation of fascism, which is from Lenin (edit: he probably didn't say this himself. More likely the Bolsheviks just attributed it to him). The "antifa is actually fascism" argument is done by striping their behaviors out of context.

    Is that the Bolshevik view of fascism?

    It sounds like your being dogmatic or orthodox here. Hate to sound like a lib but you gotta think for yourself sometimes. That's what all the great revolutionaries did.
