  • This isn’t entirely new or unique to America, but the dynamic is essentially:

    Party A improves the odds fascism is successfully implemented.

    Party B implements it.

    Reducing the conditions for fascism to take hold is strictly off the table for both A and B.

    Fundamentally changing the system of Party A (or B for that matter) through voting alone would at least require a Party C.

    But even so it is the internal party politics prior to and outside of elections that are keeping this fascism paradigm in place. And that’s where people’s frustrations tend to lie.









  • As an environmental regulator in America I know first hand how company owners tend to respect nothing but their own wealth and standing. I write and enforce administrative orders and penalties to company presidents and CEOs. They’ll throw the world under the bus before taking reaponsibility.

    But during covid a lot of contracts and orders were digitally signed and not given wet signatures.

    So a lot of American company owners are trying to pull back on everything covid. One of the angles is attempting to void all contracts not physically signed with a wet signature. Completely ignoring digital signing is a (new?) tactic being used.




  • If there’s an actual debate you’ve got to define terms. People’s definitions of ‘leftist’ can be pretty wild, especially if the debate is between an American and… mostly anyone outside America.

    I have seen people waxing poetic about Imperial Japan and the Jakarta Method who consider themselves leftist, while at the same time associate outright NazBols with the left.

    So ‘what do you actually mean by tankie/liberal?’ will usually cut through a lot of debate perv noise.
