No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming “wokeism”* for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

*Woke is a useless term promulgated by fascists to dog whistle the things they really want to hate - feminism, socialism, LGBTQIA+, immigration, brown/black people, equality and diversity.

The fascist party is polling at 30% the party they split off in the 70s is polling at 20% it's not good.

What else is new? Ask yourself why they are getting these votes? You don't have to believe me but it's the only way to understand the issue. Like i said you ppl are clueless.

Why? Failures of neoliberalism. The increase in wealth inequality, the refusal to adress issues structurally, and the appeasement of fascism to name a few.
