    Lmao we're still as capitalist as ever. Americans have a skewed sense of what capitalism implies due to your super-duper-mega-unregulated-corporation-shareholder-moneymaker3000 type of ultra capitalism

    Unfortunately, it might also be the spring of fascism there.

    People who downvoted you clearly aren't paying attention to what's happening in Italy and Germany to a lesser extent

    all have severe issues with fascism right now

    It's not an issue... fascism is a feature of classical liberal nation states - not a flaw.

    Bullshit. Fascism is by definition antithetical to classical liberalism.

    Really? Tell that to all the "liberal" regimes that enabled fascists when said liberals couldn't keep working-class revolt in check... Weimar Germany literally did that to crush the "Spartacist" revolt after WW1.

    There's a saying amongst leftists - you can't have a harvest of fascism without liberals loosening the ground for it first. Fascism is not some "aberration" of the classical liberal nation state and it never was.
