    Liberal democracy sides with fascism literally always. Read some fucking history.

      These type of bs coments are so annoying. Countries do not exclusively have treaties with other countries they like and the large majority of democracies can be said to be liberal democracies so its the type of thing that can be slanted to whatever the arguer wants.

        Yes, now imagine how we feel, reading BS comments like yours… What a stupid thing to say.

        Sorry, were we talking about fascist capture of state power?

        Not sure what treaties have to do with it. Liberalism is not just an economic position, it has political dimensions as well.

        In pretty much every historical example I’m aware of, liberals happily ceded to or collaborated with the fascist seizure of the state.

        It’s happening again and no one has ANY excuse to be surprised.

        You sound a lot like someone who could benefit from reading Parenti’s Blackshirts and Reds.
