  • Who knew white supremacy would be a world wide scourge in the 21st century?

    Communists.

    From Dorothee Sölle to Noam Chomsky to Gus Hall.

    The notion of a worldwide shift towards christianized fascism has literally been on the communists’ radar for decades, if not centuries. The worldwide shift towards fascism is only befuddling to liberals who live under the philosophy that we’ve reached the end of history, and that the wheel of progress will always inevitably turn towards justice and equality thanks to the advent of the infallibly progressive “marketplace of ideas”.

    And the liberals haven’t learned their lesson. In the face of explosive excitement about fascism, liberals are still bashing pinko “tankies” who continue to sound the alarm.




  • I saw the word creativity and assumed they were talking about creativity. Soviet cinema and socialist realism disproves this. If they were truly talking about envisioning different systems of government, they should have said that. Instead, they made a comically huge and hand waving statement about raw creativity from socialist projects.

    Soviets cannot create new ideas

    Then explain the Soviet artistic renaissance

    Oh well I’m only talking about creating new political philosphies

    That’s textbook moving the goalposts.

    We should reject the notion that Nazis were simply dumb because that view treats Fascism as an aberration of individual stupidity instead of a systematic process of capitalism in crisis. There is some subtle ableism in attempting to correlate “stupidity” with fascism.
