Bingo. But it is more than that, as well. They fear the current monetary system will be eliminated soon, ending their great wealth and power.

Yes indeed!

Yes, it could be, time will tell.

Yes, it could. When things go awry, it is because:

Money = Power = Corruption.

In the 1800s Lord Acton put it this way: "Power tends to corrupt. Absolute power corrupts absolutely" (It wasn't a new idea, even in his day.)

This is true, but the rise of Fascism is still an important thing in itself.

Far out, that was my own theory, glad someone else has figured it out, things might, might be stressed, pan out and level out to survival-able temperatures but do we even know that, and what does 'survivable' even mean? For how long and as what? What kind of garden or city planet, molded for us.

As good a reason as any.

English is not my native language obviously. It should be "inconvenient", not "unconvenient". New link: https://united-for-democracy.com/2025/04/29/the-inconvenient-truth-about-the-rise-of-fascism/

We cannot eat money oh no. Thanks for this blog. As a Dutchy I got this message very clear. 🙏

Without dramatic change in inequality, fascism is inevitable.

That's why the democrats cannot save America. They are not serious about addressing inequality.

We probably need a radical left.

canadianstory.bsky.social•1 day ago

We need a left to move past the Dems.

We need a radical left that recognizes it's material conditions, and the scapegoating of minorities, refuses peasant brain, and punches up instead of down.

It's not black people, DEI, or trans women peeing causing your wages to suck ass or ending democracy.

We need a left that can organize work places, a left that cal level with poor and working people in an authentic way. That doesn't dismiss identity politics but places them in their proper framing of capitalist scapegoating.
