Isn't it weird how we've collectively gone back in time 50 years to the Cold War? It's become more and more common to hear libs and conservative call each other commies, the Hammer and Sickle are being banned, and Capitalists talk about the Russian Federation like it's the actual Soviet Union.
I'd argue we are going as far back as the 1920s, with the global economy on the verge of imploding, socialism becoming popular in western nations, and the increasing tolerance of fascism (even nazism) and anti-communism reaching dangerous levels.
One day very soon, something is going to wake people up to the reality that they've been so scared by Russia and China that they've opened the door for a new Nazi regime.
Given how much people been scared? They'll still say it's a lesser evil. They said that after WW2, when US was prancing around Europe, bringing back fascists to power. They said that after 1991. They are saying it right now about Ukraine and Baltics.
