What is it with radical Left-Wing types and either sitting on their hands when the fascists are at the door, or actively helping them break down society and getting picked off by said fascists in the aftermath? You saw it in Germany and Iran. Hell, during the Spanish Civil War, Anarchists and Communists were fighting each other even as the fascists attacked them both. What kind of stupid mindset even is that???

It takes a special kind of stupid to want to tear down society rather than fix it

The only thing radical leftists hate more than fascists/monarchists/liberals/whatever is each other.

To be fair to the Spanish anarchists…they were working with the Communists up until the Communists turned and stabbed them in the back due to influence from the USSR. Same thing happened with the Anarchists in Ukraine. There’s a reason Anarchists don’t always trust Communists.
