  • I don’t know computers, but sure. I bet you’re right.

    We moved away since then and my wife made a new account that hasn’t been banned. I considered trying it but I’ve been rebanned almost immediately when I tried before on the last one and I worry if I try again they’ll ban me and everyone on my wifi again.

    The flaw being that when a small country starts trying to determine their own self governance that a far larger and more powerful country can crush it? Also, that argument falls down when you look at places like China and Cuba and DPRK and Venezuela still persist, and even demsoc countries like Norway are still flourishing.

    Also no, saying “these countries are winning elections but leftists don’t win elections” is not the genius argument you think it is. I don’t even understand how you think that could be an argument.

    Right, so after voting doesn’t work, and a fascist state is installed, you just allow fascism to take hold until the next time you get to vote? If you do?

    Also I can’t think of a single time that fascism has won a legitimate democratic election. But feel free to enlighten me and I’ll get back to you about it tomorrow. Maybe I’m wrong.

    Yeah, because they all got crushed after their democratically elected leaders got removed and often killed or imprisoned during the entire Cold War. Also leftists are starting to win elections again quite regularly in South America, so I’m starting to think you just don’t know what the fuck you’re talking about.

    Winning elections by itself doesn’t defeat fascism. Most of the countries that won by elections during the Cold War had their leaders deposed and had fascists installed because they were helpful to US interests. That is the entire point of this post. Just voting doesnt do fuck all to stop fascism.
