The problem is that in order to unite the left it is necessary to agree to the ideological level, very difficult, to unite the right it needs just a briefcase of money.

to unite the right, all you have to do is say "so, we all hate Black people and immigrants, right?"

"so, we all hate capitalism, right?"

A lot of people aren't ready to let go. Probably something to do with having lived their whole lives like this they can't accept its wrong and needed to be changed this whole time. Sunk cost?

definetly onto something. talking to older people thats exactly the impression i get.

deep down the fascists would rather, well, be fascists than to accept radical change from what they are used to. especially when i see that at least in my country they are a majority of older people.

I wish. You're giving right-wingers way too much credit. Most of those craven idiots do it for free for the opportunity to lose themselves in a gaggle of other morons. They are vulnerable in a way that is easy to exploit for people who know how to do it.

I’ve never come across anyone who calls themselves a “Stalinist.” Maybe that’s what some horseshoe theorists call Marxist-Leninists.
