    Well, I’m living in a country that’s turning fascist. It prides itself for being the country of the human rights yet it’s being condemned by EU human rights tribunal regularly.

    In 50 years it was on a turbo run for liberalism. What this gave us is more poverty, more riches inequalities, less public services, mental health problems, and fascism might be our next government. Congratulation capitalism! Go on!

    I’m not advocating for fascism btw. But it is a fact that the winners or capitalism are turning their countries into fascist ones.

      So it was liberal, and everything was good, and now it’s turning fascist and everything’s turning bad?

      Read my first messages again now and think.

        The irony here is palpable.

        I think you fail to realize liberalism has multiple contextual definitions, depending largely on location, and that neoliberalism is largely criticized by progressives.

            The only thing funnier than stupid people who don’t realize they’re stupid is stupid people who are convinced they’re intelligent and can’t shut up about it.

            Thanks for the laughs!
