Fascism came out on top. Communism failed spectacularly, socialism and capitalism slowly give way to fascism.

Don't be quite so certain... the last chapter has yet to be written. Sometimes things change quickly and dramatically.



Oh I know, I lived through the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe.

And I lived through the painful transition to market democracy... which is still on going, going, going, towards fascism.


What comes after fascism?


Crisis driven collapse & revolutionary reform which is a lot like flipping a coin and ending up with either a small democratic government or even more fascism.

If you end up with the first, you're still not safe as it tends to grow over time. Think of fascism as the highest entropy state of society.
