Finally!
We’ve defeated fascism, they are removed from power!
[blue]
What a struggle that was, time to celebrate
[green, looking confused]
Now let’s do everything in our power to return society to the exact state it was in right before fascism
[blue, arms crossed, smiling smugly]
Surely this won’t also reintroduce the conditions which gave rise to fascism in the first place

Even worse, the west protected the fascists and kept them in place.
With the same excuse they later used to protect the criminals that caused the 2008 crisis: “too big to fail”.
They did absolutely nothing about their gambling system which will inevitably lead to another crash.
the only thing they did change was how to deal with it when it goes wrong.
No more trouble approving bail-outs, now they have bail-in laws where these criminals will get rewarded by stealing from the public’s bank accounts.
