Why is fascism popular again?

@ravenwind43 it's true that we're finally seeing progressives get into office, especially with the last midterm with figures like AOC. But Trump rose against a moderate centrist, not a progressive.

If you mean Hillary she called herself a Progressive years ago.:)

@ravenwind43 Hillary can call herself a progressive. Just as North Korea calls themselves a democratic republic. You can say it but it isn't true 😏

Hillary's problem is that it's hard to know what she is because she reinvents herself constantly to appeal to what she believes is popular at the time. At the end of the day though, her record is that of a corporatist.

There was a documentary called The Choice I think, which was trying to tear down and expose Trump to which I think it did a decent job. But it was trying to build Hillary up as this person who constantly rose up above adversity. But she always did it by changing who she was. They tried to sell it off as a strength, but to a critical thinker it meant she was an unknown quantity. You couldn't trust her to stand up for her beliefs because she never really did before. That's not a progressive. That's a focus group construct.

@ViciDraco It doesn't matter to me what she calls herself since I can't stand her lol.

@ravenwind43 agreed.
