    Fascism and liberalism are not distinct ideologies, but the same ideology in different circumstances. Liberalism is the nice mask, fascism is the brutal one, and Capitalism will use whichever the bourgoeisie feels is necessary to maintain control and profits.

    Critiquing liberalism is a “left” thing, not an “alt-left” thing, and I don’t even know what that means.

      Alt-left means “I’m a liberal co-opting the word ‘leftist’ to to pigeonhole leftists out of ‘conventional politics’ (picking the current flavor of liberalism)”
