    Far-left and far-right regimes are just a cycle, society just goes from right to left and vice versa gradually, bad times make strong men and good times make weak men. That’s it.

    Edit: The key is to be the strong man in any time.

      This is a classic fascist talking point. The ideology is coming from inside the house on this one.

        Research about human history and you will know what I’m talking about, the same phenomenon it’s seen in all the human history, it is just now it’s at global scale but it will be the same when humans get into the space, far-left and far-right will keep fighting each other for resources and power.

        Edit: There is no transcendence until you are a cold dead ass, until then you will need to pick a side, if you are smart enough you will pick the side of the winners.

              So Finland pulled all the strings when they fought the USSR? Are you sure about that?

              And while we’re on the subject of the USSR, I assume you think that the people who had all the power in Imperial Russia were not the czar and his noblemen, considering they ended up on the losing end of a firing squad.

          Research about human history

          Whose writings specifically should we research? You do know that the study of history is not usually about objective facts, but interpreting historical accounts around those facts, right?

          There is no consensus agreement on human history. Or fascism. If you want us to do research that argues your point, you’ll need to tell us who we’re supposed to read.

          I would turn this right around and suggest you yourself look up the “Fremen mirage”, it’s very readable, and more or less a direct dissection and dismantling of the precise interpretation of history you present here.

      bad times make strong men and good times make weak men.

      This concept seem to be rooted in the idea that hard work makes you stronger. If you work 12 hours in a mine you won’t become the weightlifting world champion, you will also get no time to study, research or improve all the way around.

      That’s what those on top say every time there is an economic crisis: “just a passing storm”, time to buy low. But every time there is irreversible damage that accumulates until the ship suddenly sinks.
