I agree, fascism is capitalism in crisis. Capitalism is always cruel as imperialism in the global south, but I'd say fascism is the most mask off form. Ultimately, capitalism is the root of the issue. The meme wasn't contradicting that

And no, it's not AI :)

For example Nazi full name is National Socialism, it’s in the name.

In case of fascists in Italy, their entire name came from fascio - which means bundle of sticks - their entire thing is about collectivisation and making individual to work for the greater whole. Just like communism.

Cool etymology fact, doesn't make fascism socialist.

In practice Communism killed (by extermination and starvation) as many people as Nazism

I'm not even a Marxist and I can tell you that's bullshit. The black book of communism included the death of Nazi soldiers, the HYPOTHETICAL deaths of unborn children due to declined birth rates, and much more bullshit. Ffs, even the coauthors denounced that book later on.

while Fascism in Italy was pretty tame in comparison

jesus fucking christ

No worries 😁 and thanks!

???? Elaborate. How is fascism socialist and how is communism worse than fascism?

[–] fxomt 17 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (4 children)

I added that in the body :) unless you explicitly differentiated from imperialism and colonialism, if so

How I understand it, imperialism is a general term describing a nation ruling over another, controlling the politics, the economy, the military, the media, etc; through either soft power, or hard power.

Colonialism is occupying the land, and with the same outcome as above. Imperialism is a general concept, colonialism is one of the means of imperialism, since you don't always need explicit colonialism to be imperialist. I hope I got that right lol

A note! the desktop field is completely optional! You can install any other desktop you like, but the listed are the "main" ones, usually recommended by the distro.

Linux Mint

  • Country: Ireland 🇮🇪
  • Experience: Simple
  • Desktop: Cinnamon

Best distro for beginners. has two versions: One based off of ubuntu (default), and another one debian (recommended, LMDE)

https://www.linuxmint.com/

Ubuntu

  • Country: Britain 🇬🇧
  • Experience: Simple
  • Desktop: GNOME

Good distro, but has some controversies. Though it's the most popular beginners distro by far.

https://ubuntu.com/

EndeavourOS

  • Country: Netherlands 🇳🇱
  • Experience: Intermediate
  • Desktop: KDE/GNOME/XFCE

My second favorite :) Arch based, easy installer and updater, friendly community and beautiful themes. I recommend this distro if you are into arch based distros without wanting the painful part of it.

https://endeavouros.com/

OpenSUSE

  • Country: Germany 🇩🇪
  • Experience: Intermediate
  • Desktop: KDE

It's mainly built around using the GUI, with tools like yast. Uses KDE.

https://www.opensuse.org/

Manjaro

  • Country: Germany 🇩🇪 / Austria 🇦🇹 / France🇫🇷
  • Experience: Intermediate
  • Desktop: KDE/GNOME/XFCE

Added because of popular recommendation. I recommend EndeavourOS more, since manjaro has a... history.

https://manjaro.org/

NixOS

  • Country: Netherlands 🇳🇱
  • Experience: Advanced
  • Desktop: KDE/GNOME

My personal favorite <3 Great for servers. It's not for the faint of heart, though hah. It's an immutable distro, where there is no package manager, or manually modifying config files; your entire system is created with .nix files, not commands. Reproducable.

https://nixos.org/

Arch

  • Country: Canada 🇨🇦 (Yes yes, it's not european but how can you not mention arch???)
  • Experience: Advanced
  • Desktop: None

Most popular distro for dedicated users, and for good reason; bleeding edge, full power over your system. Though you have to manually set up everything, from internet to your deskop environment.

Void

  • Country: Spain 🇪🇸
  • Experience: Advanced
  • Desktop: XFCE

Great distro if you want something like arch, but without systemd or slightly more stable (Also, musl support). Obscure but amazing.

https://voidlinux.org/

Debian [Honorary mention]

  • Country: Global 🌍
  • Experience: Intermediate
  • Desktop: KDE/GNOME/XFCE

An honorary mention. Isn't suited for everyone, but is the golden standard for servers, and the grandfather of a huge family tree of distros.

https://www.debian.org/

VanillaOS [Honorary mention]

  • Country: Global 🌍️
  • Experience: Advanced
  • Desktop: GNOME

VanillaOS is a debian-based immutable operating system, which can install packages from any other distro and is very hard to brick.

https://vanillaos.org/

That should cover a lot. Please heed the desktop warning, and please correct me/comment suggestions. This is not perfect, so please do criticize where possible c:
