Mexican here. Last month, a reporter known for being critical of the government was fired live in the middle of his segment. We're definitely going fascist.

India and China are missing. Japan is pretty fascist too... at least when compared to European "fascist" countries marked in the map.

Apart from that... the amount of fascism is too damn high!

Is Japan "going" or just sitting roughly where it's been for decades? I don't know enough about Japanese politics but it doesn't seem from my perspective like it moves fast.

You're correct, it's innaccurate to not portray the entire world as descending into fascism, as has always been predicted on any path that embraces capitalism.

I wonder if Greenland would go fascist if they started having issues with immigrants.

Canada's not fascist yet. We're electing our own Vance in a few months, so save your sympathy for us then.

Apparently the Corporation has been able to convince people - as they've tried from the start - that Hair Guy is somehow worse than them. They haven't actually put forth a platform with any numbers or promises on it, but "hair guy bad" has finally found an audience so dumb to swallow it.

Please remove Quebec from that map, we’re definitely not going fascists!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

Why would they remove Quebec? Quebec doesn't matter here much more than the Bay Area, Catalonia, Sami land or Ulster.

Someone should warn them

Eh, we find that out next year if the cookers are stupid enough to vote Dutto in.

[–] goodthanks 2 points 35 minutes ago

It's not just the cookers. It's also the media illiterate and unengaged. I'm constantly shocked at how insular our population is. It feels like a ticking time bomb.

We just wanna be like everyone else, is that so wrong?

Hear, hear. Let’s commit to fighting fascism as enthusiastically as Putin!

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 hours ago

So, not particularly effectively and using it as an increasingly threadbare excuse for maintaining the status quo?
