The oversimplification of everything is the same is a path to fascism

But you misunderstand us, everything is not the same. In the US, the borgeois double party encompasses a sprawling ecosystem of rich and varied fascism, with every species serving a purpose in facilitating the flow of capital. It's fascists of the blue variety, usually willfully ignorant, who insist on ironically reducing a century's worth of comprehensive analysis to "a simplification" just because it arrives at clear conclusions in a way that is verboten in liberal thought.

In reality, it's that trained liberal reflex of peeling off increasingly atom-thin layers of nuance to wrap over increasingly visible fascist policy that, historically, has only ever ended in naked fascism. Only liberals could torture into being the nebulous mirror image of a fascism to define themselves against that somehow also lets them off the hook for the genocide they've been doing for a year. My brother in capitalism, we are the fascists. You may personally think there's still daylight between liberalism and fascism, but most of the world knows better by now.

Finally, you're not going to change a system that you are forced to participate in regardless of your opinion

Very cool not-a-sham democracy we have here
