Thought you’d all find this funny.

Do socialists actually think talk like this from Kamala Harris is actually helpful? That you need an 'equity' approach whereby people with low income or of color are helped first post catastrophe.
It's funny because I sort of agree implicitly, but Harris's phrasing makes me less supportive of it.
If I were in her shoes and I were asked, I'd say, we will help people in need, and those whose need is most dire will be a priority. In practice, that means the poor are higher priority, of course.

The fascist trick is to minimize a problem (of domination) until it's too late, and then to say it's unavoidable and we must all submit to fate. Climate change for instance
Highly recommend humanist marxist Erich Fromm's Escape from Freedom on how fascism is at root a sado-masochist personality affect (disorder?), a constant need to dominate most and submit to others still, from Hitler on down.
I too, think this is weird and indicative of ignorance about what fascism is. We are used to it in the US because it is associated with mainstream nationalist ideas. That doesn’t mean it isn’t a hard truth.
We’d have to go down a dark and unlikely path to get to USSR style communism. We could get to the Third Reich by 2024 if the next election doesn’t stave it off.
Oh for sure. It’ll just take a President to finish it off if the new Congress flips to the GOP. I meant the congressional mid term election this year as the next one, that wasn’t clear.
