MODERATORS
Four years ago we gave it a stay of execution. Until we fully purge the fascist and focus government to actually serve the people, we are going to keep finding ourselves in chaos, until China beats us to and at everything.
Yeah, a Trump victory scares me, but what scares me more is the more competent fascist that comes next. The Democrats can't keep waiting for the Republicans to, "come to their senses." The material conditions of the working class need to improve, or fascist populism will take in the absence of economic populism.
No other fascist has the cult of personality that trump does. If we can rid ourselves of this scourge, it will cause a reckoning and reset among the conservatives. I hope.
I doubt that, but it would be nice if you're right.
It's crazy how the global powers have handed China so much power as a result of their insatiable greed. China was hardly a concern 40 years ago, but 4 decades of manufacturing and stealing literally everyone's IP have given them resources they didn't have access to before.
China didn't have to steal anything, the west handed them all of our trade and engineering secrets on a silver platter just to boost their profit margins.
Well yes, under contract that they don't copy it, but that's not how China works.
Twenty years ago they were still basically nothing.
