Kinda ignores the reality that the past 3 election cycles have been fascist vs. a party that positions itself as progressive “not fascists.” You’d think that, you know. The “not fascists” would’ve done something to prevent the fascists from gaining power.
Instead, they endorsed international colonialism and genocide and spent 4 years fighting back against workers’ rights.
Electoral liberalism trends towards the right over time. As a rule. Because capitalist interests are always further to the right, and electoral liberalism is based on capitalism and the existence of a capitalist ruling class. Any ideology that permits the existence of capitalism must include very strong limits on capitalist enterprise and absolute bans on capital political power and influence. Or, by default, it becomes more fascist over time. Anti-capitalism is the only ideology congruent with antifascism.
