      Damn it is hard for fascists to admit being wrong, isn’t it? Looking at yours and the other guys’ squirming is nearly cringe.

        Well, I’m living in a country that’s turning fascist. It prides itself for being the country of the human rights yet it’s being condemned by EU human rights tribunal regularly.

        In 50 years it was on a turbo run for liberalism. What this gave us is more poverty, more riches inequalities, less public services, mental health problems, and fascism might be our next government. Congratulation capitalism! Go on!

        I’m not advocating for fascism btw. But it is a fact that the winners or capitalism are turning their countries into fascist ones.

      Czechoslovakia was leaning capitalist and prosperous before the Nazis and then Soviets invaded, both leaning much more leftist, and surpressing the people.

          In my opinion yes, but you’re free to have your own definitions for left and right since historians and economists alike disagree on their definitions too.

          My definitions are basically, leftistism is collective control of the means of production. Rightism is individual control. The left is therefore a much more broas category as collective control can take a ton of different forms.

                So you are actually equating a central authority with political left! That is very interesting to see how far the liberal propaganda went to brainwash people.

                  I’m equating central planning with leftism yes. Because no one denies a free market is right-wing, so leftism must contradict that.
