<p>You don't see how the US being a right-wing capitalist authoritarian state and not a left-wing communist authoritarian state answers the question of why I'm talking about the right when I talk about the US?<p>Then I don't think I can help you, no.</p>

<p>You don't see the connection between the capital-state and fascism? The US is of course neither communist nor left-wing in any sense today.</p>

<p>Here: <a href="https://archive.ph/PGZKw" rel="nofollow">https://archive.ph/PGZKw</a><p>The article makes the connection, though obliquely. It seems obvious enough - large parts of the USian West embody fascism in their unnatural relationship with nature. Unsustainable water consumption, roads and "the freedom of the open highway," etc.<p>And as late-stage capitalism "progresses" it'll all become uninhabitable, replicating the logic of the so-called climate migration crisis within as it is without.</p>
