Keir’s not a social democrat and neither is the Labour party underneath him. They’re out and proud neoliberals.
Social Democrats in the best of times, Fascist Neoliberals in the worst of times. Two sides of the same coin. The same group under different stresses and conditions
Once you realize that the options are private property and fascism, or liberation, the teams really become clear.
It’s because you ultimately want positive social change but are naive enough to believe you can compromise with reactionaries and fascists.
Social Democrats have always opposed fascism, from Nazi Germany to more recent times.
Alex, the question is “What did the Social Democrats hire the Freikorps for in 1919?”
also, why did they not utilise the same power to bring down fascists like they did to communists?
also, whose chancellor gave power to hitler against communists?
What specifically is this from?
rant on how ineffectual search engines are
I’ve been trying to search it and my fucking god all search engines are SHIT now. Searx (using google and bing) returns no results when I throw in a few quote marks as search operators to get exact text matches, and won’t let me use yandex for some reason. Using Yandex directly is impossible because I’m not doing 5 ridiculous image captchas in a row to prove I’m not a bot and just conduct a single search. Brave keeps turning up wikipedia pages and Time articles but completely ignoring quote marks (I fucking hate how Brave just up and ignores important search operators without telling you, just to make it look like it’s feeding you results, even though those results are ones you specifically asked for it NOT to return which is why the operators are there in the first place.
I finally started asking the Brave AI exactly where the text originated from and it says
The text likely comes from a historical book, article, or academic paper that discusses the Nazi Party’s rise to power and the role of various political parties, including the Social Democrats, in that process.
Really? No shit.
Also, searching marxists.org (which just uses google anyway) didn’t help either.
I’ve seen social democrats wondering aloud if it will be necessary for a dictator to implement their green new deal plans against popular will. So imagine some big nationalized American Green Corporation run by a dictatorship, making huge infrastructure investments without touching private property, but in a social democratic way, not at all fascist.
