Congratulations, you've written probably the most hitlerite comment I've seen on Lemmy so far, and I'm genuinely concerned.

Instead of investigating what makes people act this way in terms of material conditions, incentives and values that are promoted, maybe the way power is organized and how it leads to inevitable opportunism or this being an inevitability of a class dictatorship that we have now, you instead go for the "undesirables" angle.

People didn't vote for the candidate you wanted because they were irredeemably evil. What do we do, kill all MAGA voters now for having the wrong human archetype? Prohibit them from voting? That only seems the natural conclusion from everything you wrote.

It's easy to blame Russia and China, but it's not really that. It's clear that this is a symptom that something is wrong, and that is stagnating or worsening living conditions, unhappiness with how society operates and people hearing that turn to reaction.

Left doesn't have an answer given how marginalized they are, all you get are center-lib parties that pretend everything is okay or that focus on liberal middle class issues. It's no surprise

Not surprising - traditionalist liberals attacking LGBT people because they dare defy the holy family structure is very common.

I doubt this has anything to do with religion though, apart from it being used as a convenient tool to add credence to the rhetoric. More people being born and raised via unpaid labor of their parents (usually mothers) means more future workers for the ruling class to extract labor value from, which usually means more economic growth and more bodies for when war breaks out.
