I've got a BA in modern history under my belt and two decades of amateur study after that and can tell you, the distinction between Fascism and how the West has always treated the rest of the world is nothing but window dressing and fake binary

Then you know that colonialism and fascism are not the same things. Words have meanings. Two things that share some common attributes are not the same thing.
I accept that this post probably touched a nerve with you as someone who is thoroughly invested in the status quo, which is why you've chosen to attack my clearly made point semantically, but you are wrong on that level as well; and astoundingly arrogant to keep pushing the point tbh.
And now you're deflecting. Trying to distract from the fact that you haven't made a solid point against either my post or the counter arguments I made to your BBC comment.
Whether consciously or not, you are here to defend the status quo on a self declared communist page, why? really.
I didn’t defend anything. What do you think I defended?
I just disagreed with your simplistic joining of jots.
I am sure you have read a lot of history books. But knowledge is not wisdom as you are demonstrating.
Fascism is what happens when western supremacism, racism, authoritarian and colonial violence comes home instead of being politely tucked away in a corner.
