Well leninism isn't facist. It's communist for sure. But again we are just arguing over titles where i believe there is no correct opinion anyway. I just care about the outcome.
It is very dangerous when the government becomes to much about the collective in my opinion. Trying to push everyone to be the same and equal is very dangerous. That is not human nature and is proven countless times not to work.
I'm afraid for the future of the USA because I see it clearly that the "weak" and lowest common denominator are taking over. It is more about being equal than winning and being your personal best. Bernie Sanders pushes this very scary to me "equality". This kind of mentality is going to be very bad for the future.
The entitlement mentality is just starting to hit. Bernie Sanders pushes this mentality and makes it his platform. I don't see it getting better from here. But I can hope.
