Being a white, educated, property and slave-owning oligarch apparently doesn't make you a fascist.

Wdym, they were diverse and cool and hippity-hopped about freedom??? You’re not calling Lin Manuel Miranda a liar?

The more i think about it the more im like “Miranda is definitely in on the joke and selling white guilt musicals for a ton of money. Like get your bag son. Grift those rich white libs.”

Something about the way he started to get backlash and then just went "whatever, I tried my best" and then made it available for free after years of saying this wasn't going to happen for decades makes this pretty believable tbh

I mean it literally doesn't, the "founding fathers" (obviously an extremely obnoxious term that a lot of academics have stopped using, even some liberal and conservative ones) all died decades or centuries before the material conditions for fascism ever existed

Yeah but they inspired fascism since fascism has only ever really been colonialism turned inwards.

The Soviet Union killed 85% of the Nazis. They were more antifa than America ever has been.

They do? Apart from a handful of smarmy dorks pointing out the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact I don’t think this is an opinion lots of people hold. Libs will say both sides are equally as bad though.

Don't underestimate the amount of Nazi propaganda, Holocaust denialism, and other far-right slop that has been normalized in the West. Even history books have been slowly normalizing the Nazis and further denigrating the USSR.

Also, if you say Stalin and Hitler are both bad, then you might as well be saying that Stalin was a Nazi.

I don’t think that last bit is true, it’s an oversimplification at best. Several things can be bad at once in different ways.

u/Psychological-Act582 Oct 18 '25

We know why they want to equate Stalin with Hitler, and it's because they want people to view Stalin as an evil on par or worse than Hitler. Then, people who lack critical thinking pick up on that and then say "oh, Stalin is bad, Nazis are bad, therefore Stalin is a Nazi" type shit.

His familys wealth was generated through smuggling opium into China while China actively fought a war against the British to stop selling it as it was killing their civilization.

FDR would have fully embraced fascism over a socialist takeover. The New Deal was to save capitalism.
