“Fascists and communists are the same, excuse me now while I support dumping hundreds of billions of dollars into the military and police, make excuses for decades of US-backed anti-democratic coups and genocidal imperialist wars around the world, and support Biden as he continues or intensifies all of Trump’s policies (including caging children).” — liberals

“CoMmUnIsTs ArE ThE SaMe As FaScIsTs”, whoa, what an original thought that we’ve never heard before, did you come up with that all on your own? I’m glad a wise liberal like you is here to enlighten us.

What is democratic about the current situation:

1. The current global stage is dominated by the attempt of historical centers of imperialism (the U.S., Western and Central Europe, Japan—hereafter called “the Triad”) to maintain their exclusive control over the planet through a combination of:

• so-called neo-liberal economic globalization policies allowing financial transnational capital of the Triad to decide alone on all issues in their exclusive interests;
• the military control of the planet by the U.S. and its subordinate allies (NATO and Japan) in order to annihilate any attempt by any country not of the Triad to move out from under their yoke.

In that respect all countries of the world not of the Triad are enemies or potential enemies, except those who accept complete submission to the economic and political strategy of the Triad … In that frame Russia is “an enemy.”

After the breakdown of the Soviet system, some people (in Russia in particular) thought that the “West” would not antagonize a “capitalist Russia”—just as Germany and Japan had “lost the war but won the peace.” They forgot that the Western powers supported the reconstruction of the former fascist countries precisely to face the challenge of the independent policies of the Soviet Union. Now, this challenge having disappeared, the target of the Triad is complete submission, to destroy the capacity of Russia to resist.

The current development of the Ukraine tragedy illustrates the reality of the strategic target of the Triad.

The Triad organized in Kiev what ought to be called a “Euro/Nazi putsch.” To achieve their target (separating the historical twin sister nations—the Russian and the Ukrainian), they needed the support of local Nazis.

The rhetoric of the Western medias, claiming that the policies of the Triad aim at promoting democracy, is simply a lie. Nowhere has the Triad promoted democracy. On the contrary these policies have systematically been supporting the most anti-democratic (in some cases “fascist”) local forces. Quasi-fascist in the former Yugoslavia—in Croatia and Kosovo—as well as in the Baltic states and Eastern Europe, Hungary for instance. Eastern Europe has been “integrated” in the European Union not as equal partners, but as “semi-colonies” of major Western and Central European capitalist/imperialist powers. The relation between West and East in the European system is in some degree similar to that which rules the relations between the U.S. and Latin America! In the countries of the South the Triad supported the extreme anti-democratic forces such as, for instance, ultra-reactionary political Islam and, with their complicity, has destroyed societies; the cases of Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Libya illustrate these targets of the Triad imperialist project.

“democracy”

It’s a tough category out there for “Most meaningless buzzword”, but I’d still wager good money on “authoritarianism” taking home first prize

What democracy is involved in the Ukraine war?

When the fascist media corp says that a country is “authoritarian” it means that that country would have authority over them. In fascist countries the ghouls who own the media can pay off the corrupt state officials, in the countries they have called authoritarian, they can not. Anti-authoritarianism by media corpos just means they want to be above the law.

Ofcourse for normal humans this is different, every state would have authority over us.

But America is the most authoritarian country in the world with the most prisoners, police murders, most warlike and belligerent, etc. I guess you made a typo and meant to say that fascists and liberals lean heavily into authoritarianism which makes them quite similar.
