    I don’t actually think you’re asking in good faith with the bot joke, but if you really care you don’t need to look that hard, they are literally all around you (the person who pays your wages after they’ve pocketed most of the value of your labour, the person who collects your rent by commodifying and profiteering off of a basic human right to shelter, the government that allows them to continue to do so and worse, and who also privatise your national services for personal gain and much much more), you just need to open your eyes to how they exploit you and the rest of society.

    It’s called capitalism, look it up.

    And no, abolishing capitalism isn’t fascism, it’s quite literally the opposite (since capitalism in decay is fascism as we can see being demonstrated around us in real time).
    The other person saying that targeting an individual group of people turns you in to a fascist is full of shit in this instance (and is acting exactly like a “crab” who refuses to acknowledge the “bucket” even exists, but instead tries their best to keep down those who do because they threaten the status quo this person is obviously comfortable enough in) - capitalism isn’t a marginalised or oppressed group it is an active marginalisation and oppressing machine, and standing up to oppressors does not equal oppression, it’s literally liberation.
