Here's the thing that these idiots must understand. Neither fascism or socialism is rising in the world.
If anything the political trend that we're seeing now is the rise of Caesarism at best.
Now if you ask me I still think that the United States is undoubtedly the greatest country ever as of now but with that said we even we don't come close to the great Roman Civilization which has deeply left its mark on human history for as long as the human race exists.
If you ask me, the political trend that we are seeing now is Caesarism which is the rise of strongman leaders that rise to power where they preach to the masses about how they want to defend their nation's interests and be for the people.
We in this day and age are seeing our modern day Julius Caesars; Donald Trump, Shinzo Abe, Narendra Modi, Benjamin Netanyahu, Boris Johnson, and others like them are all modern day examples of rising Julius Caesars (or strongmen) in this time.
The Roman Civilization was and always will be the greatest ancient western civilization that ever existed and now the spirit of the Roman Civilization is still living on.
Say what you want about people like Boris Johnson but that is the reality that we are seeing now.
