considering the current state of the world and things like the resurgence of fascism and other authoritarian ideologies, do you think there is still a chance to avoid a new world war or now is unavoidable?

Oh I understand those far-right "others" just fine. They're all the abusive partners, parents and bullys we've all known. The ones who will torture their own family members for doing something, anything, without their unpredictable stamp of approval. The ones who eagerly twist and lie and manipulate people to get what they want, saying vapid shit about "empathy and understanding" that they have no intention of following themselves.

The Republican party is indefensible and by extension, so are those that support them, from Fox News all the way down to fuckstains at the local bar. They've made themselves a shining beacon for the worst people in America and I'm comfortable writing every single one of them off.

Because if they were actually capable of empathy, understanding or reasonable discourse, they wouldn't be far-right in the first place.
