Ukraine will take steps to research, publicize, and protect the histories of Ukrainians living in parts of modern-day Russia that have been historically inhabited by Ukrainians, according to a decree signed by President Volodymyr Zelensky on Jan. 22.
Alright so clearly you’re going to just “no true scotsman” any and all examples that I could give, how about you show me the unrestricted left wing utopia that exists somewhere in the world? Or has no one ever attempted “true left wing” policies as you dictate them to be?
Do you have any? I’d be really interested to learn more. I wouldn’t have thought progressivism unchecked would lead to fascism. Without balance I guess I don’t know what it would lead to.
I would actually only think it would lead to fascism as an extreme reaction against progressivism, ala Weimar Republic.
You’ve got some nerve citing fallacies when you’re the one who started out with a massive strawman argument and a balance fallacy. First of all, no, the guy you replied to clearly did not mean “fascism” as a synonym for authoritarianism in general like you pretended he did; these days when we say it, we really do mean specifically that thing that matches Umberto Eco’s 14 points (or a similar definition). Second, no, there’s no unchecked left-wing authoritarianism going on here; you pulled that entirely out of your ass so you could make a bullshit “both sides” argument.

There are plenty of countries in the EU that have favorable worker’s rights, free education and healthcare, and a healthy social safety net. Compared to the US at least.
