Capitalism in Decay

Fascism is capitalism in decay. As with anticommunism in general, the ruling class has oversimplified this phenomenon to the point of absurdity and teaches but a small fraction of its history. This is the spot for getting a serious understanding of it (from a more proletarian perspective) and collecting the facts that contemporary anticommunists are unlikely to discuss.

Posts should be relevant to either fascism or neofascism, otherwise they belong in !latestagecapitalism@lemmygrad.ml. If you are unsure if the subject matter is related to either, share it there instead. Off‐topic posts shall be removed.

No capitalist apologia or other anticommunism. No bigotry, including racism, misogyny, ableism, heterosexism, or xenophobia. Be respectful. This is a safe space where all comrades should feel welcome.

For our purposes, we consider early Shōwa Japan to be capitalism in decay.

For you brilliant commenters reacting angrily, this doesn't represent actual views. /r/UnethicalLifeProTips is satire.

EDIT: Well it's supposed to be satire, anyway. I won't claim it's succeeding.

"satire" is when you say out loud your sociopathic thoughts and get epic updoots for it. The posts on ULPT are, as i understand it, humorously unethical means of achieving an objective which is socially acceptable to desire. In this case, the apparently socially acceptable desire is the removal of the minorities who we are deciding to blame for the election result. Note that this is different from the desire to win the election, the election has already passed - this is pure vindictiveness.

I didn't claim it was good satire. That's just the supposed purpose of that subreddit. I personally think this is pretty pathetic.
