With the rapidly worsening of the material conditions of the general population in the 'west', will we see a rerun of the early 20th century? I feel we are approaching the point where the bourgeoisie are so desperate to cling on that the 'democratic' institutions of today might be in danger.
Since everyone is saying "Fascism is already here" I ask the group how do we as leftists resist it? When fascism was rising in Germany and Italy, communists would literally fight in the streets against right wing class traitor mobs. In the US now, those class traitors are formalized as the police and have the power of the state backing them completely. We have different material conditions than interbellum Europe, therefor our methods must be different.
