As the dominant global economic model of supposed never-ending profits, never-ending growth, and never-ending extraction of resources has led us to the brink, the small gains and minor progress of recent decades have faced an inevitable last gasp backlash from Late Capitalism's acolytes -- leading to a scuppering and smearing of even mild social democratic alternatives in the hierarchical electoral state systems, and therefore a promotion of fascism that offers an authoritarian protection for their precious capitalism's perpetuation. We may think of fascism as some bygone ideology snuffed out by the good guys, but Nazism was largely confronted when it threatened opposing imperialist interests. Today, most capitalists are on the same page.
