With its general election just a week away, fears are mounting that the hard-right Vox party could form part of the national government.

    The person you’re replying to is a lunatic for sure, but to be fair, far left is on the rise as well and a quick history review shows us that they’re as scary if not scarier.

      Stalin and Mao were fascists.

      The far left, such that it has existed, was primarily slaughtered by the nazis and the red army and moderates happily watched it happen.
