particularly i call people with shallow politics who spend more time virtue signaling than trying to engage on topics of critical analysis shitlibs

it's why us lefties focus more on systems than on people. a marxist approach to history reveals that this has been happening and likely continue happening until we muster some fundamental change in how we organize. it's like there's an 80 year cyclical race where the "revolution" (not the revolution) happens, people accept that it's not perfect, but it's an improvement, they fail to educate their children about the problems with the old regime and the current regime, until eventually a time comes when no one remembers the last cycle anymore and the whole process gets repeated.

fwiw, i thought what you were saying was pretty clear hence posting the fascism definition comic that just takes what you said and puts doodles to it. but for some reason you got downvoted to hell and i got hella upvotes. i even looked at lemvotes and saw several people downvoting you and upvoting me, which i find confusing. it seems like lemmy is going through a weird moment

worth noting: he named his party the catholic socialist party.

it's also worth noting this pattern of ebb and flow, subjugation and liberation, is as old as civilization itself. political theorists didn't invent any of this, they just wrote down what the dissidents of their age were doing. fascism wasn't created in the 1920s, it was merely named. Karl Marx didn't create communism, he just named what he saw people working towards. for as long as humans have lived in hierarchical societies, they have discussed and planned how to bring about an end to these hierarchies that they suffer under.

all i can find is that the CIA used Radio Free Europe to communicate to the independence fighters that the NATO allies would support their uprising. then when Hungarians revolted, they found themselves wholly unsupported.

do you have any good articles showing this to be a color revolution? because this reads to me just about what happens when a fascist org (CIA) co-opts international solidarity in order to thwart real change from ever getting organized, something they were very fond of doing throughout the cold war leading to devastating effects in the global south

fascism is the status quo recognizing that the people are waking up to the status quo not working for them, and the coopting the symbology of liberation to maintain itself

"liberation is when authoritarians operate via pieces of paper and text on a screen to purchase access to violence to exploit the workers"
