   @Radical_EgoCom No offense but I really think you already live in a fascist dictatorship...

     @Radical_EgoCom Not an open one, but a real one.
     We all live in a capital dictatorship, but there's a range of different regimes that fit into that definition.
     And USA, with its fake elections, its fascist police, its incredibly high convicted population (literally legal slavery), its genocide on poor people... It's closer to a fascist dictatorship than we (in Spain) are. And we are close enough.

     @Radical_EgoCom Yes, I'm suggesting that. You have had a uniparty for a long, long time. Someone could argue that Trump changed that. And you see him as a negative change. I see him like a wildcard. And a franker enemy.

     @Radical_EgoCom @krapocho comrade this smacks of the renegade Kautskys appeasement and revisionism and I hope you will reconsider.
     
     The political class exists to shepherd bourgeois policy and its imperialist agendas alone. They need voters to legitimize the facade and so the right wing party stokes fear of immigrants and minorities to motivate their base whilst the left Stokes fascist fears and culture war promises, all the while conveniently ignoring the fascist policy and law of their own party.
     
     Obama immediately abandoned his promise of gay marriage and instead began the Yemen drone warfare campaign.
     
     Trump immediately forgot about the wall and stoked wealth redistribution to the rich with tax cuts, and trade war with china.
     
     Kamala will be no different. The fascism of imperialist capitalism is the only undeniable truth of the vote.

     @Radical_EgoCom Things are not that simple. I believe Trump's election in 2016 was not in the script. There was a conflict inside the establishment. And that probably was the causue for no new wars being started.
     As for 2024, I think that conflict is probably settled, but that doesn't make Kamala as a good option. She is the establishment favorite, as was Biden and Clinton before her.
     You're choosing among two very bad options.
     So, the conditions to participate in an election, from a marxist perspective, are far far from being fulfilled. They actually are, even from a liberal perspective.

     @Radical_EgoCom Fascism morphs over time and looks different in every country. American fascism in 2024 will not look like Germany or Italy or Chile.

     Fact is that fascists have taken over the major western democracies. I'm with El Metabarón on this.
