That train needs to be more rickety and the tracks terminate over a cliff. Fascists always destroy themselves. They literally cannot help it, it's built into fascism itself. Sadly, they always aim to hurt and kill as many as possible along the way. Bunch of short sighted mental invalids.

My concern is not for their long-term chances of success, it's for all the people they will drag down that cliff with them.

As we've seen very clearly and with great documentation, fascism can literally burn the world down and kill countless millions of people and reshape all of human history, setting back all our progress and plans by decades or centuries.

If it wasn't for selfish authoritarians, we would be colonizing the solar system and fixing our planet's climate.

Eh, maybe. Just cause it hasn't worked long term yet doesn't mean it won't. Don't copy their "the enemy is simultaneously weak and stupid, and strong and crafty" rhetoric
