There will always be nazis
You can't defeat an ideology
in general, maybe? but probably a pretty small amount depending on the society
It will always exist
Yes that's why there a few Nazis in this day and age
>few
>fascists elected all over europe and the americas
Not Nazis but yeah the Brazil election is stupid
fascism is a natural endpoint of liberal society, but in a different society I doubt there would be as much of it
But the people of Brazil generally fed with the violence
The left didn't help so they went for the right
Most of them didn't even care if bolsanaro said horrible stuff
He said he will be hard on corruption
not so much that the left didn't help, more that the fascists appeal more directly to their simplistic ideas about the world
People want a strong leader in times of chaos
exactly, in a society with less chaos, fascism would be less likely
True
thus I think it's possible to have a society in which fascists are very rare, so much as to be not a problem
If one extreme rises another extreme will rise to counter it
That's why we have occasia Cortez in the limelight and the SJW's
do you think cortez is somehow extreme?
define "SJW"?
She is for open borders?
The always offended group
so, like... a pretty small group not at all comparable in size or power to modern fascists e.g. white nationalists in US and brasil
Small but a very vocal minority
anyways, can you give me a source on cortez' border policy?
Smooth, how many Americans do you think are fascists?
can't find a page on exactly what she thinks
@Bookworm define "fascists"
She hasn't outright spoken about this
Huh? You're using the word, what are you using it to mean?
But there are people who want it and it's growing
@Bookworm when I use fascist I generally mean by it "militant ethno-nationalist"
just want to know if we're on the same page
Are there any other definitions of the word?
@methdragon all I can see is her asking for no ICE, not necessarily open borders as such? I could be missing something
Okay. How many of those do you think are in America?
I see that too but I have read somewhere that people close to her says it's in her manifesto
