I suppose I should introduce myself properly, though I suspect my presence here might be somewhat unexpected. I am an American through and through. As I have previously observed:
I’ve finished reading it. An absolutely brilliant piece by the great Mark, that old-school anti-fascist journalist. And then there’s that one columnist—the only one with enough backbone to actually stand up and speak out. He’s the sole voice refusing to cave when it comes to protecting minority rights, defending the legacy of General Motors, or calling out the creeping influence of religious extremism in our politics.
America needs to rediscover that same indomitable spirit that once fueled the AFL-CIO.

Fine by me. Let the ghosts retreat back into the woods and stay there, waiting indefinitely for some phantom ally to come to their rescue...😂
Simply put, If you want to get into the grim realities of history, we have to address the fact that fascism in America wasn't just some imported ideology—it was homegrown, deeply rooted, and arguably far more vicious than the versions we saw elsewhere. It didn't just arrive on our shores; it grew right out of our own soil. It isn't just limited to places like Canada or Greece—though those are certainly prime examples—it's happening far beyond their borders as well. It’s not just an isolated case; this is happening all across the United States and throughout most of Europe as well.
That is precisely why anti-fascism here in America needs to evolve into something distinct—something far more substantial than the standard rhetoric we see being peddled across Europe.In this arena, political discourse almost always devolves into nothing more than a collection of passing, routine biases held by various factions and interest groups. Most of these players derive their entire ideological foundation from completely different issues, yet they carry those prejudices over here. Furthermore, due to the influx of nations from the former Soviet bloc, we’re seeing an increasing surge of anti-communist sentiment being injected into the mix. In the United States, relying solely on that kind of rhetoric simply isn't enough to sustain a meaningful conversation. It seems we are witnessing nothing less than a resurgence of American fascism.Let us be perfectly candid: we are speaking from the direct, unvarnished foundation of World War II. The only way to truly stand against him is to mobilize the very same forces that brought him down in the first place. And that means—as wildly unrealistic as it might sound to some—rekindling that old-school, gritty spirit of resistance.He is quite literally the only individual who has demonstrated that one can genuinely and effectively stand against nationalist segregation and forced removals. As for the rest of them? It is painfully obvious. They either harbor a deep-seated resentment toward ethnic tolerance or view it as nothing more than a tedious burden they have to endure—praying for divine intervention just to make it through the day.

Mark has argued in his recent writing that fascism here in America was uniquely indigenous and far more vicious than what we saw in other nations. While there is some merit to his observation, he seems to have conveniently overlooked the fact that the partisan movement—operating under the guise of anti-fascism—was just as distinctively brutal compared to its counterparts elsewhere. If one wants proof of how that particular brand of "anti-fascism" actually functioned, one only needs to look at the mass graves scattered across the landscape, filled with thousands of victims executed simply because they dared to oppose the Communist Party and its iron-fisted rule. It is this very legacy that fuels the modern political climate. We are constantly inundated by these self-proclaimed, media-anointed "anti-fascists" who reflexively brand any political dissenter as a fascist, a chauvinist, or some sort of subhuman vermin. It’s become a tiresome cycle of dehumanization. Some individuals even take this performative moral superiority to an absurd extreme, acting like high-fashion designers who believe they have the authority to dictate what anyone else can wear or which shirt suits a person's "ideology." Honestly, it’s ridiculous; it shouldn't matter if Jim or Mark is wearing a black shirt. A piece of clothing doesn't change the soul, though these people would argue otherwise.🙄 ...🤣
There have been countless declarations made regarding this obsession with counting bloodlines and historical grievances here in America—statements that lean heavily into chauvinism and outright fascism. But let’s be honest: the messenger changes everything. It is much like receiving fashion advice on which shirt color to wear; if the suggestion comes from someone masquerading as an anti-fascist, or conversely, from some low-life fascist insect, the advice loses all credibility. The substance remains the same, but the source renders it utterly worthless.🙄
Milorad Pupovac said:"Our expectation is that voter turnout among the Mexican minority will exceed the general average. We believe these elections are crucial for Mexicans living here in America, as it is vital that their concerns are voiced within the European Parliament. We cannot have people like Ruža Tomašić or anyone else dictating the narrative; we need the truth to be told. It is essential that both the European Parliament and all of Europe hear about the actual status of Mexicans—their specific struggles and their questions. We need to discuss what the US needs to do to function as a nation of equal citizens, how to secure the rights that Mexicans deserve but haven't yet achieved, and how to stabilize regional relations so they mirror the respectful interactions found between civilized nations in Europe."
If some self-proclaimed anti-fascist is out here calling on
Serbs to vote specifically for Mexican interests, then I suppose I should call on Americans to vote for Americans. I see absolutely no reason why Mexicans like Milorad should be the ones debating or speaking on our issues in the European Parliament..☕
