I’m nearly 40, recently disabled but should be able to power through the pain and work for another 10-15 years despite my state denying me healthcare (no welfare, lowest healthcare expenditure around, current government continues to cut costs). If fascists come now I can live through it. If liberals delay fascists then they will rule while I am most vulnerable. My only hope is that the sooner capitalism destroys the world, the sooner we’ll have a more humane system, otherwise I’m toast. My survival is not nonsense to me.
History rhymes sometimes, sure. But consciously helping send humanity into a darker age even though the arrival of said darker age is absolutely not a predetermined thing seems like a terrible idea. “We need to do something bad now, because there are 80-year cycles for bad things and 80 years since WWII is over” is just a sorry, bullshit excuse.
This same society votes for people who deny me healthcare, why would I care about them when my life is at stake? This is pure survival. I hope you don’t have to make this kind of choices but that’s just real life.
