    yes, every state is fascist by design, the function of a state is to opress people in order to make them more governable using violent force with the excuse of “protecting” it’s people

    and yeah sure, your points about america are valid, but what country doesn’t do the same shit or doesn’t at least collaborate with america?

    also I do think that you can be more fascist than someone else, for example: you said that america is as bad as nazi germany, but it can become worse, right? so that would make it more fascist than nazi germany

      yes, every state is fascist by design

      The vast majority of the states in the world don’t do these things though. Every state is going to do bad things (however you define that), but fascism is something very specific. It is the form of policy that a late stage liberal society follows, one which has no further path of development and especially one which has an empire it has to defend.

      for example: you said that america is as bad as nazi germany, but it can become worse, right?

      It can get worse. But predicting which American candidate will make it worse less quickly is trying to predict the butterfly effect.

      I’m not saying that you cannot make predictions in politics. It is possible, but only specific types of general predictions under specific circumstances.

      Take the election again, who is to say that a second trump admin won’t be as incompetent as the first? In that case, it might even end up being less harmful than the Biden admin. But that is not guaranteed either.

        1. name one state and I can dig up tons of shit about it

        2. I belive that trump won’t be as incompetent this time and as I am part of the lgbt community I wouldn’t vote for someone who actively tries to destroy it

          1. And? Still wouldn’t make most states fascist
          2. Your rights are already fucked. The Biden admin could have tried protecting them on a federal level, but they didn’t bother.
