All three examples you gave fell to fascism and then were dragged out of it kicking and screaming at the cost of countless lives. They’re the bad ending. In the bad ending the ideology of the country defeating the fascists doesn’t matter; nobody claimed liberals can’t run a war. When leftists say liberalism can’t stop fascism, they mean that centrist liberalism* (the kind practiced by the modern DNC, for example) is incapable of avoiding the bad ending and leading countries away from fascism without becoming fascist in the first place. We want a good ending that liberalism can’t offer.
Again, getting your ass kicked by foreign powers is the bad ending. What leftists want is a way to stop the rise of fascism without a war that leaves millions dead. It should also be noted that this way of ending fascism requires a foreign army able to conquer the region going fascist, and who exactly are you expecting to come and kick America’s ass?
But, you’re talking about a country that is only 237 years old. So, yes 100 years ago was a long time ago. And look at all the changes that have occurred since then. This is not the same system as it was 100 years ago.
Because you know it isn’t, and you’re trying to maintain your cope. You have successfully pointed out that you weren’t prepared to back up your statement at all and just wasted everyone’s time. Reply or not, we’re done here.
It’s also the system that has defeated it multiple times.
More like supplanted one form of fascism with a softer, gentler kind of fascism.
Examples?
Fascist Italy, Nazi Germany and Imperial Japan depending how sticky you want to be with the definition.

Capitalism kicked all that fascist ass though and they turned to capitalism after.

I’m expecting America to implode and it not be a problem.
So what do you want to talk about here?
All the capitalist countries that aren’t fascist or the fascist countries that leftists fixed?
Yeah that’s also a bad ending. Because, y’know, nobody wants a reenactment of the Holocaust.
How liberalism will do nothing to prevent America’s fall into fascism, just like it did nothing to prevent other instances of fascism.
There’s a hundred and ninety-five countries in the world and most of them aren’t currently fascist so I think liberalism wins out.
What are leftists going to do they can’t even vote much less organize an effective party and you think they’re going to head a revolution?
That’s a fucking joke.
don’t worry. once we get rid of the dems we will surely be free of the republicans.
im sorry what. booooobs.
In recent times?
I feel like I’m going to say yes and you’re going to say it’s not recent enough.
What you’re saying is that you know it wasn’t recent.
No what I was saying is exactly what I said because I chose my words carefully.
That you know it wasn’t recent.
It’s pretty recent. 100 years isn’t that long, historically speaking. It seems long to is humans, but it’s really not.
But, you’re talking about a country that is only 237 years old. So, yes 100 years ago was a long time ago. And look at all the changes that have occurred since then. This is not the same system as it was 100 years ago.
Wait.
That I knew it wasn’t going to be recent enough for you.
Because you know it isn’t, and you’re trying to maintain your cope. You have successfully pointed out that you weren’t prepared to back up your statement at all and just wasted everyone’s time. Reply or not, we’re done here.
Don’t worry in about five minutes this time wasting won’t be recent enough to matter anymore.
