Can’t even hold one person accountable. Your answer is why can’t we hold everyone involved accountable?

I think it starts with one person.

Corporatism predates Mussolini by almost a hundred years.

The only person who pretends not to connect the dots is you.

Don’t trust anyone, just Trump. It’s like having a abusive partner you can’t escape from.

And we are back to saying fascism doesn’t exist because I can’t connect the dots in your head. sigh

Edit: Just to be clear Fascism didn’t start in Italy.

And that’s why you will never be a billionaire.

It is a last ditch effort in Linux instead of the first reaction for me in Windows.

Maybe I don’t just don’t respect Windows. It probably goes back to things like it deciding to do an unskippable update right before I did a presentation or trying to find some obscure .dll file for hours trying to make a program work.

I get your point though.

I was just pointing out the irony of your statement. I think this is a low effort meme for sure

Isn’t it crazy that you need a physical workaround for your operating system?

This is what it is like when you start with Win95 instead of DOS. Windows never made sense because they buried the CLI. After you played around making .bat files learning .sh was amazing.

I even remember playing around with OS/2 which blew Windows out of the water at the time. It really is all a matter of perspective and I think starting before a GUI is so similar to your example. Linux just makes sense on a fundamental level. Like this is the way it should be.

You are clearly unable to connect it to anything I said.

As I already stated your extremely narrow view of what fascism is prevents you from seeing. You take this as being vague or nonspecific. I totally get that.

I provided multiple examples of my own as well as modern definitions of fascism even from people you sourced. This is ultimately a disagreement over semantics.

I thought you had the answer to your own question. Perhaps I was wrong, my apologies.

The modern wealthy are completely divorced from country and city. They no longer build a mansion and improve the town they built it in…now they own several mansions in different countries and the real status symbol is the private jet. The ability to go anywhere at anytime without any strings attached.

The technological aspect is perhaps the most important aspect though. It is what has allowed the wealthy far more money and power than ever thought imaginable.

Things are inevitable if you don’t change policy and culture.

They are just betting everyone is so overwhelmed they can’t see what is really happening. So far it is working.

“If you believe modern states are fascist, then you need to explain how those institutions and structures transformed while preserving a fascist core. Instead, you’ve repeatedly responded to positions I never took rather than the critique I actually made.”

Back to reality from this kind of garbage.

I never made the argument that Italian fascism took over the world. In fact, I was clear from the beginning. You are the one who is looking for the apparent answer they already know.

Save your leninsplaining for someone else. Cheers!

Part of the problem is corporations have squeezed so much money out of all our systems that there is none left unless you start cutting corners. So that is what people will do.

Nothing beats a garden tomato. It really is hard to eat store bought produce once you have grown it yourself and it is so much better tasting.

Disgusting to hear about elders living in cars. It really sucks and to be honest me and my whole family are only a few paychecks away from losing everything. All the while expenses are increasing much fast than our income. We are starting to consider desperate ideas like making our own bread instead of buying it just to save money. Things are getting progressively more bonkers.

I really like the idea of the game until the first combat and I was like WTH is this and stopped playing.

I love this debate and I think you hit the nail on the head with your last two statements.

A vegetable is a culinary term not a scientific one. Fruit is both a scientific term meaning the ripened ovary (calm down people) of a flowering plant that holds seeds and a culinary term as plant parts that are sweet.

This checks out as the French are the second biggest arms dealer in the world.
