    I am a citizen of two countries: a republic and a monarchy. Both are advanced European liberal democracies.

    One has a strong far right, refuse to acknowledge its own regional languages because of the threat they pose to the national unity and has a very strong head of state that can decide a lot of things alone, without being responsible before the Parliament.

    The other has almost no far right, a very numerous immigrated population, recognizes three national languages but officially communicates in two other languages spoken by its two biggest immigrated communities, has a weak head of state and a strong Parliament.

    Which one is the most “proto-fascist”? The first.

    Which one is a monarchy? The second.










  • Government welfare programs are centrist, they were established in my country by a left-right alliance after the WWII… Jesus advocated something more radical : if you have something that you don’t need, it’s not yours anymore, it’s something you have to give to people who need what you have. It’s basically the end of private property, and not only of the means of production.

    But no, he was not violent, that’s true. Is violence a leftist marker? I don’t think so.
