    And that’s why conservatives get elected. And since more and more young vote for right-wing parties we’re in for a real shitshow.

      Yeah. To be honest most liberal and social democrat governments are playing right into the hands of the right wing too.

      Too afraid to crack down on the far right, but still too conservative to commit to large public spending on housing and sustainable infrastructure. Or in Germany’s case, nuclear energy.

      I have hope for those organzing outside of electoralism, those organzing within it in the West are in for another rude wake up call soon. They keep ignoring them.

      Westerners are not more tolerant or intolerant then any other people on earth, we generally just have higher standards of living as a result of economic and military hegemony. As that continues to decline for more and more previously " wealthy " people the fascist radiclization will get worse in the West.

      We need new ways of living and bold ideas. The far right nor neoliberals can offer that to people. Liberals will tolerate dissidents but they will never take meaningful action on the issiues of class, the military industrial complex or encomcis for the most part. It needs to change from the outside in.

      Just prepare properly.

      Take 5 minutes of your day to excersie a small speech about how you never knew anything, nobody knew anything in fact and we were just following orders. If we all feign ignorance we can pretend like this happened under our watch.
