No I’m not catastrophising.

The world is slowly lurching towards a fully fascist led America, India, Hungary, Russia, Netherlands, Germany, Italy and Argentina.

Instead people are either ignorant or blaming “wokeism”* for their problems.

I have no clue what to do and this is literally a car crash in slow motion.

I’m despondent because I’m going to be crushed under the boot when the time comes and my morals get in the way of my survival instinct.

Humans are repeating the mistakes of the past. It’s just so anxiety inducing.

*Woke is a useless term promulgated by fascists to dog whistle the things they really want to hate - feminism, socialism, LGBTQIA+, immigration, brown/black people, equality and diversity.

Don't forget Belgium, specifically in Flanders.

My parents are in their 80's and my wife is older than me and they are the only people who really matter to me. I don't have other family.

When they go I will go too. I don't see how I will be able to live on my own.

You forgot about the UK

It's not actually fascism, it's modern feudalism. The push for a more totalitarian government in all of the countries you mention is being funded by the super rich who want the working class to stay firmly under their thumb. And the plebes who are voting for the oligarchic candidates are really just voting to become serfs to their new lords and masters.

Even better is watching liberals ignore it and ban everyone who tells them to arm up to defend themselves. This is seen as "advocating violence" because they think that fascists will be nice to them if they are nice to fascists.

I think that instead of it being the end we will simply learn that fully fascist world is actually quite good for business and nothing will change for vast majority of people. I'm not saying it will be good. It will be worse, just not as bad as you think.

Edit: I guess I should have said "fully fascist" with ' " '. What I'm saying is that the world is moving to the right, yes, but it's not collapsing into fascist states. OP is being overly pessimist. The whole world is not turning into US.

Spoken like a good little bootlicker.

Best keep that tongue on that boot, lest it steps on you instead. Same goes for those businesses under a fascist government. I'm sure life will be good for them, especially if they don't mind the taste of leather.

Remove their tongue from the boot, and business won't be good for them.
