The sitting POTUS is a weakling in foreign policy and too undisciplined in regard to domestic spending. His predecessor and potential successor is a lying demented moron who is a caricature of a Fascist. A village idiot on the grandest stage because of filthy rich daddy, corrupted media and an already rotten political party.
The European politicians are almost all useless, weak minded people with insular competence at getting into power. None of them prepared properly against the threat of a Fascist America that we may face very soon. I don't mean preparing for facing Russia alone; anyone who pretends that Free Europe couldn't stop Russian military might without American help is a fool. The Russians can't even defeat the Ukrainians who receive a little help. Their Soviet heritage arms and munitions stocks are almost exhausted. No, the issue is that we are not prepared to at least mitigate what harm a Fascist POTUS would want to inflict on us, much less deter any such aggression.

If America goes fascist, we are prepared to follow, but not lead in any other direction.
ReplyDeleteJust this.
DeleteA fascist america has no need to threaten military action on europe. Even just the threat withholding aid against russia would be powerful motivator. They can demand "tribute" in the form of beneficial trade agreements, which wouldn't easily register as injust in europe. Or in the form of military assistance against china, which might even be in our own interest to provide. If they want to impose fascist values in europe, they can do so through cultural influence, internet propaganda, pro-atlanticist networks, coups if need be (we know the military and police tends towards right wing opinions). They would find enough political allies and collaborators in europe.
Yeah. I hope Trump wins, because I'm half optimistic about it being the start of some shock therapy that will make Euro nations want to be at the helm of their destinies, not just some protectorates who buy F-35 as someone pays the mafia for protection and totally accept the domination of the US big data and tech giants. But everybody seems so spineless from the EU to the local governments... and even if Trump doesn't wins some demagogue, maybe more inteligent and much more dangerous, will in the near future. The US institutions are wrecked, the country is so divided and millions are accepting things that were jokes in some dystopia movies from the 80s about the future. interesting times, Nord Koreans are fighting in Europe and the US are on the brink of being a isolationist-militaristic pseudo christian country anti everything non US...
DeleteAmerica already has "beneficial trade agreements" with Europe.
DeleteIt's software companies rarely if ever pay taxes in Europe in spite of making an ABSURD amount of money IN Europe.
America also enjoys a position of international monetary priveledge thanks to the petro dollar.
You are over-reacting.
ReplyDeleteFascism will not likely occur in America and if it does it will certainly not happen under Trump, for the simple reason that Trump is lacks the competence needed to go through the complex process by which America can become a fascist state.
The fact as the matter is, America is an oligarchy with a great deal of similarities with 90s Russia, a handful of billionaires basicly decide who gets to be president.
His party understood that he's lazy and incompetent. They've shown all signs of doing the heavy lifting for him.
DeleteThe call is coming from inside the house. Fascism is always descending on the USA and landing in Europe; and Germany's BfV does daily what would make scandalous headlines in America's FBI.
ReplyDeleteThe fear of American fascism leaving Europe alone so they have to pay for their own defense!
ReplyDeleteThat's a worthless comment. You'd have seen that nothing of that sort is in the links if you weren't too lazy to read.
DeleteI read them, that's why I think it's silly! You're concerned with defense against an American military attack. That's something "American fascism" makes dramatically less likely.
DeleteWhy was my comment deleted it was perfectly reasonable...
DeleteAny comment that denies German sovereignty has a 100% chance of being removed.
DeleteThere are two definitions of Fascism:
ReplyDeleteThe correct one: A system of political economy where Government, Labor Unions, and Business are in close collaboration to run the economy led by corporate executives & university trained experts. In the US, we call this "Progressivism".
Trump is the opposite of that.
I will assume you are using the Marxist definition of "Fascist" which is: "Any person or any group who opposes International or Global Marxism". The main opposition targets the Marxist seeks to destroy first are always: The Family, The Church, and the laws of the Nation & the community.
Marxists hate Trump for a very good reason. He protects all three.
Both your definitions are total bollocks.
DeleteThat's the kind of talk that's common among Americans who have been brainwashed to be utterly illiterate on political terminology.
There's no need to assume what definition I use. You can simply follow the first link in this blog post to see which one I used there.
