    The answer will shock approximately nobody on Lemmy, but it’s a good, careful look at what history can show us, from a pedantic historian.

          .ml users defending modern fascists that all the real world socialists call fascists, weird how that keeps happening

          Actually, now that I think about it, I was instance banned for saying federal representative democracies are by definition a form of democracy, which a Marxist might disagree with on an ideological basis but which a conservative engaging in enforcing right-think acceptance would ban you for pushing back against the “we’re a republic, not a democracy” narrative.

          Interesting.
