Republican reality is artificial. It tracks.
Fascists always lose in the end
The Kim family has had almost 3 full generations of not facing any consequences for their actions in NK. Sorry, but I think your statement is childishly idyllic and not reflective of the real world.
Karma doesn’t exist. The good guys dont always win. Some of the most evil people imaginable will die peacefully in their sleep at the age of 90, wealthy, and surrounded by family that loves them.
You confuse history with karma. Authoritarians don’t outlast humanity. The “real world” bends in centuries, not decades. Your attempt at an argument is myopic and unsophisticated.
Yeah no, he also has a point.
Humanity may survive but that is the same as saying not to worry about climate change because Earth will survive; it’s of little help to me here, right now
The reality of the situation is that you don’t know. Just because history worked in a certain way doesn’t mean the future will, especially with the rapid changes we’re facing today
Every single authoritarian in history has fallen out faded away. Every single one. Will you and/or I see it? Probably not, although I hope that we are close to a cusp in history. The pendulum has been artificially pushed to the right, the current status has been built on lies and deceit - it can’t be sustained.

Only if they are stupid enough to start a war. Internationally peaceful fascists tend to rule until they are bored or die from old age.

The intersection of people who become fascist and people who don’t want to declare war is small

Argentina and Spain are good examples. Peron and Franco organized ratlines for Nazis fleeing the Nuremberg trials.

And that sample size is pretty small. I wouldn’t count on the US losing a war.

America wouldnt come off very well in a 1v1 with China tbh I doubt either side would win but Alas.

How so? China has a manpower advantage, but they don’t have the capability to project that advantage beyond the mainland. In what way would America not “come off well”, when the enemy has no credible way of actually getting to us? Are they going to island hop from one American defensive position to the next, all the way across the Pacific?
Sounds like a bad time - for them.
