@yogthos@mastodon.social @clacke You think we're worse for having a say in how our countries are governed? Why?
@clacke @yogthos@mastodon.social Yeah, these ideas and revolutions to implement them are much older though. This stuff happened in the mid 20th century when there was no internet and barely TV.
Neofascism is older than the widespread use of the internet of course, Europe had a fascist wave in the 80s and 90s, but it had largely subsided by the turn of the century.
The current fascist wave has been growing in the last decade and it is no coincidence that it has been growing along with the shifting media landscape. Global propaganda has never been easier.
