Fascism is like a mother playing peekaboo and the establishment media is the baby giggling with delight every time she reveals her face because mommy is back, she didn’t leave after all
Since the 1990s, the world has pursued an especially unrestrained form of capitalism. It has brought great benefits: millions of people have been lifted out of poverty.
Except those millions were mostly in China.
Yeah, the UN admitted back in like 2006 that if you remove China (communism) from the equation, poverty is getting worse. And westerners in their glorious illiteracy and anti-intullectualism, still think that capitalism reduces poverty, the thing it creates. Amazing.
The UN poverty report from 2020 (Alston Poverty Report) also critiques the neo-liberal prosperity / poverty reduction narratives: https://www.srpoverty.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Alston-Poverty-Report-FINAL.pdf
Love how even this chart is stacked this way around which makes reading it harder.
Did it ever leave?
they’re just being honest about it now
imagine thinking fascism ever went away
We’re told that after the war the Nazis vanished without a trace
But battalions of fascists still dream of a master race
Somehow, fascism returned
Return?
R E T V R N
The return? Did it go somewhere?
Does a bear shit in the woods?
This fucking headline…
Gee, ya think?!
grauniad
Don’t call it a comeback
