    Biden’s still putting Mexicans in cages. Biden’s still turning immigrants away. Biden’s still propagating the police state. Biden isn’t putting forwards any efforts to end the race war that has existed in America for generations. Biden isn’t reducing the size or the scope of the military-industrial complex. Biden is doing nothing about climate change. Biden refuses to pass social system reforms.

    What does Biden do, then? Well, American Fascism.

    The natural progression of Liberalism - the ideology of capitalism -, is the transition to Fascism. Liberalism only exists to set up the social and material conditions for the state to transition into the far-right. The Liberals, first and foremost, achieve this via suppression of left-wing ideology, and the systematic oppression of all peoples below the bourgeois class. Then, the Liberals pit oppressed peoples against each other. Blacks against whites, gays against straights, worker against worker, etc. Biden is completely complicit in this, so was Obama, and every democrat to have ever existed since the formation of American Capitalism. The only difference between the democrats and the republicans in American politics, is the democrats pretend to be polite about their transition towards Fascism.

    Further, the Liberals achieve Fascist reform under the voter’s noses, by pushing the ‘overton window’ (the range of policies politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time) steadily to the right, slowly setting into motion the downward spiral the state requires to push openly Fascist narratives. The more they’re able to push the window, the more they can abuse the material conditions they made exist, and the more disenfranchised their populations become. The more disenfranchised the population, the more likely they are to be radicalized into “extreme” ideologies. They intend for their populations to radicalize into Fascism, but it appears in times of extreme disenfranchisation radicalism into Fascism and Communism are proportional, if your population begins drifting into one the other half of the population will drift into the other to “defend” themselves. Which, is what we’ve been seeing in the United States over the past few years.

      I thought the conservatives want to move the overton window to the right and the liberals want to keep it where it is

        not at all.

        Think about American politics not as two independent parties, but as two hands to a connected body. The Democrats would be the left hand, the Republicans the right. They both act in the interests of the body, and they help each other achieve goals that mutually benefit the ruling class. The “#Resistence” against ‘the right’ is theatre, nothing more.

        Conservatives are Liberals, the rest of the world understands this already. The Republican Party would be considered a Far-Right party by the world’s standards, and the Democrats would be considered a right-wing Liberal party. Bernie, the person both parties called a “communist”, would be considered a Social-Democrat and still on the right, in accordance to the rest of the world.

        Liberal means right wing, pro capitalist, pro wage slavery, pro landlordism, pro free market. The Australian right wing party for example, is the liberal party. Reagan and Thatcher are liberals.

        In the US, a distinction is made for social liberals, who also hold all the same views as those above and are also right wing, but occasionally progressive on social issues, as long as it isn’t an affront to capitalist rule. IE more women prison guards and trans drone pilots.

        Here’s a better and concise definition tho than that I did above.
