fascism is a strictly regimented society in which every institution serves the state. under Mussolini the most obvious expression was corporatism and in fact that is the purest definition of fascism. sure, eco will talk about The racial stuff as Central but I don’t think Mussolini ever would. I think that he only saw that as part of strengthening the state just like almost every other country who was practicing eugenics at the time did, just like the United States.

fascists come to power out of liberal democracies because liberal democracies are incapable of preventing them. All they have to do is pitch themselves as " third positionist" like clinton did.

neoliberalism is fascism.

You explained what I already said: Neoliberalism creates the conditions for fascism. When one candidate is a Neoliberal, they leave the door open for fascism. When one candidate is a fascist, you’re straight jumping to fascism.

Delaying the slide to fascism by voting neoliberal is the preferred course of action.

You’re a fed, you have no knowledge of theory and exist purely to spoil the pot.

A tiger cub is still a tiger. You can cuddle and pet a tiger cub. Even let your kids play with it. But a full grown tiger? That’s dangerous to have around, especially if it gets hungry.

Sure, so then there’s no difference in voting to be locked in a room alone with a tiger cub vs an adult tiger, got it.

The tiger cub buys time to make meaningful grassroots change, even if it still continues the path to an eventual adult tiger.
