I was wondering if there are instances where the fascist were banished, without having to rely on foreign army? For example, hijacking the fascist party with leftist sympathizers, or indirectly threatening the stability of the government by using fascist-handbook reactionary provocations? Or something like using economic arms to crush fascism?
I’m not a subject matter expert but I believe Fascist/Francoist Spain underwent a peaceful transition to democracy on the death of the dictator.
Portugal too. Although there was a revolution, it was mostly bloodless
A peaceful “transition” where they kept the francoist police, judges, military and politicians in power. No reparations were paid, no executioners went on trial, everything stayed materially the same. Nowadays it’s a struggle to even dig up the mass graves and identify the victims, which the government is supposed to help with, but barely any money is ever allocated to do so.
It was a transition alright, but only to a bourgeois democracy, that ultimately represents the same interests from 50 years ago.
I didn’t say it was good, just saying they’re a sorta functional democracy after a peaceful transition from a fascistic dictatorial hellhole.
And I’m saying nothing substantially changed, still a hellhole
So you’re not arguing they’re fascist and dictatorial?
The exact thing I said?
Cool
Fuck off with smug reply. If you’re fine with fascists and the pointless spectacle that covers for them, just say it out loud.
Stop projecting
Generally without revolution and agency for the population you mostly get change for the worse. See also how the Soviet Union deteriorated from it’s mission into a historical hellhole under Stalin
Was fascism ever destroyed?
Removed from power, sure. Removed from influence, not really
Chile… they just voted theirs out?
