No, you just made a likely bad faith argument he couldn't be bothered to engage with.

There has been a rise in far-right parties in many countries, many of which don't officially label themselves as fascist for plausible deniability, while spouting clearly fascist rhetoric. Their current scapegoats of choice include (but are not limited to) immigrants and lgbtq people.

But if you're not being disingenuous, what do you think fascism is?

Say what you want about marxist-leninists but they're not "very extreme right fascists". Do you have any evidence for your claim or are you just doing your part in decreasing political literacy?

~~Extreme~~ capitalism stifles and suffocates innovation and preservation.

It's an inherent contradiction of capitalist competition. Somehow everyone is supposed to be competitive but noone is supposed to win for capitalism to "work". Otherwise it's considered a monopoly and "anti-competitive".

Ironically this requires collaboration.

Of course capitalism operates in a lot of gray areas, it's how it seems freer than it actually is. "I need food" isn't always a problem, but it is one often enough to be systemically problematic. Abandoning one's hopes and dreams because one must be "realistic" is the norm.

Why do you think communism "lead" to authoritarianism? Do you think communism is inherently authoritarian? Is the distinction between Marxism-Leninism and Anarcho-Communism and other 'communisms' meaningless to you?

What do you think communism means?

In practice, (representative) democracy is a sham, anyways

The actually imporant thing they undermine, as does capitalism, is autonomy.

What exactly makes it "far left"?

Uncorrupt governments? No, far left (at least an anarchist far left) is realising that that's a pipedream.

A "healthy middle class"? Lol, leftism is all about eradicating the class system entirely, it's one of the biggest reasons liberals aren't leftist.

Yeah it's so tone deaf.

Imagine thinking inequality is fine as long as the petite bourgeoisie is satisfied -_-

The nordic model is not socialist, it's a mix of social democracy and corporatism
