Then you should be happy with the democrats because they are basically global fascists.

      What is left-wing about them? As much as I dislike what the Russian Bolsheviks stood for, they were much better than American democrats. At least the Bolsheviks pretended to stand for the working class. American democrats have no such pretense. I can't think of anything that the democrats stand for that is traditionally left-wing. They are pure tyrants. They stand for big business. They hate the working class. They hate freedom of any kind.

      Okay, so fascists support nationalism and democrats don't. So maybe the only word that fits democrats is "tyrants".

      Liberalism is the dictatorship of capital. Republicans and Democrats focus on different things rhetorically, but they're fundamentally the same thing. Communism and fascism both set out to destroy the liberal world-order, but I think the fascists were more accurate in their analysis.
