Commenter asked me do I know what fascism means and then would be confused when I point out that Jim Crow, the Indian Removal Act, and China Towns are the foundations of fascism. United States birthed European fascism’s whole style and being white was never a true protective factor against being destroyed by those beliefs. Nazism was not fun for Germans either. Even the die hards (who were not the elite) were tiring of it.

The bait and switch of the colonies, the mercantilist system. It’s all European culture.

Becoming white is a violent process. It’s a process of loss and mental suffering.

Before there was chattel slavery, there was the serf. Many hold on to racism because racism is the only reason the majority of their bloodline stop being disposable serfs and started to have any semblance of quality of life.

“Who are you without racism? Are you any good? Do you like yourself?” - Toni Morrison

The predation of fellow people because of perceived minor differences or advantages is fascism. Stealing art from an indie artist means you don’t understand what “indie” means or the point of being an artist. Tell me how that is not a fascist perspective?

You take without giving. Then you say those with needs are the problem to be eliminated. Odd.

Someone who thinks “wealthy doctors” need to be violently purged but never thinks critically about the Hospital administration, the corporate board of the hospital chain, or the insurance companies who manipulate healthcare access and even influence medical school graduation rates and cost of medical schooling at the government level.

Same facile and easily manipulated attitude that leads you to mock those who continue to emphasize that your class enemy isn’t someone who drives a BMW but the person who sets the salaries of who gets to drive a BMW and the person who determines how much that BMW costs. You don’t even realize that BMWs are not that high end of a car and there are people who drive cars, multiple, worth millions and often don’t drive at all because they yacht and fly private. Taylor Swift is a poor hick to them.

Similar to how the fascist ecological argument is so subtle. Too many “people having children”, but not too many billionaires and factories? Not too many military bases?

You have no compassion and that’s why your politics are incoherent and “based”. It all comes back to egoism.

No, you don’t know what a fascist is. It’s easy to lean into ignorance and be cruel because you want someone to hurt. That’s fascism and that is why you can get on the same shuttle to Mars. You have no obligation to “pay” anyone for anything same attitude as the ultra rich. What a pair you make.

“a modern irony?”

in a world

that’s all

about

accelleration

collecting

possessions

have we forgotten

about

times for

introspection

and self

reflection

those ladders

must we keep on

climbing

while inner peace

we’re denying

at pace

we run the race

forgetting to be

human

crushing all we can

to achieve

as we believe

in things

but don’t truly believe

in anything

yet it’s alleged

that on his

death bed

he with the best of all

Jobs

rejected lucre’s call

and disavowed

the trillions to which he

kowtowed

having truly bitten from

the Apple

when with death he

grappled

he forsook it all

choosing to refute

wealth

accepting instead

the supremacy of

happiness and

health

"to the day when Apple Incs value exceeded €1 trillion"
