    My likely idealist notions

    Like second thought said in a recent video, the conditions that allow fascism to take hold are the same conditions that allow communism to gain popularity and power. Communist thinking and action of actively suppressed, while fascist dogs are given leash to do pretty heinous things in the name of “free speech”. When you look at these organizations however, that commit a solid percent of hate crimes across the country, they’re made up of like 2-300 people. So fascism is boosted while communism is repressed, what does this say about our current conditions? It means there are probably more comrades, proto-comrades, and potential comrades than there would appear to be at first glance!

    The other thing that makes me hopeful, and not to sound overly US centric, but global capital has a lot of it’s eggs in the USA basket, but the USA I believe is not as prepared as it thinks it is against internal action. The US being weakened by this would take the boot off literally billions of necks around the world and, hopefully, inspire a few new countries to take revolutionary action while the main military force of capitalism is distracted.
