    Don’t forget, the goal of Hitler was a united Europe. Now that Europe is united, it’s turning far right in most countries. Hitler just had the formula all backwards. Now with Russia being a dictatorial regime and Trump being a Putin lover, Biden is the one to stop the US from being a Russian puppet state. This world is so fucked up right now. Putin wants to restore the Soviet Union and the American Republicans are all for it.

      Yeah, the Soviet Union, but with all the lip service to communism replaced by actual capitalism.

        Well, not really. The regime is a totalitarian dictatorship, the system is extremely corrupt with all the oligarchs. So it’s not really capitalism. Communism is replaced by nationalism. Not really nazism, as the nazies had a very social system (only national). Putin wants the old borders of the Soviet Union back, not socialism.

          Capitalism doesn’t need free market to exist. In fact, capitalism has nothing to do with free markets, only with ownership of the means of production.

      I knew they were going off the rails for decades, but when I saw them stroking themselves to shirtless Putin on horseback while saying Obama was “weak” because “mom jeans”, I knew they were just beyond righting themselves.
