J’Accuse of Friday 23 May the drift of right-wing extremism and the grip on democracy: the new well nazism...

One could very well assert that capitalist liberalism itself has triumphed over all other Marxist and social democratic ideologies, but in the end it has generated itself and against its own supporters the seed of its end. We see it in all European states and especially in the country Leader of Western democracies where a billionaire tycoon, communicator and shrewd, with the decisive support of a handful of American super billionaires, racist, xenophobic and contemptuous towards humanity, owners and controllers of the major international social media, is demolishing democracy itself with all the political, social and legal conquests achieved so far, in the name and for the name of the protection of national and particular interests and against the same principles of democracy and respect for human rights that made him elected. It is paradoxical, absurd, contradictory but it is also true. We discover it as the weeks go by the cynicism and shamelessness with which Trump launches his policies with presidential decrees that suspend rights, prohibit freedoms and even threaten the independence of other states. We also see it in how he behaves with his interlocutors at the White House, treating them as subordinates and even inferior to his authority as a president capable of offending and often supporting the unsustainable. This shamelessness emerged but not clearly when he proposed to Zelensky to sign the Agreement on rare earths, ignoring both the rights of Ukraine itself and the rights of the Russian imperial state that has regained possession of the provinces that had always been part of the Empire of the Tsars. We saw this same cynicism with horror when he posted the video on Mar in Gaza, as if he himself were behaving like a God Pharaoh with the power and authority to decree that a people must leave their land so that Tycoon Trump in the White House, and not the American people, can build his luxury hotels and casinos and perhaps pleasure houses for the clientele of the friendly Gulf, buyer of American weapons. What use would all those hundreds of billions of dollars of weapons be? Perhaps to fuel civil wars when they decide to break out! We perceived the same inconsistency when two days ago the absolute Head of the White House received South African President Ramaphosa and his delegation. Here Trump somehow strips down and lets his disappointment shine through for those who, as he has stated, are pursuing a genocide in South Africa against white minorities. With photos and videos he illustrates the drama of these landowners killed and robbed of their lands, with the complicity of the local authorities. Genocide of white South Africans, but not of Palestinians by Netanyahu, his guest would have replied! No. He did not have the courage to tell this truth which, moreover, was told and denounced by the South Africans themselves in the International Criminal Court. Ramaphosa defended himself by blaming criminal gangs, but he forgot to remind Trump that these same landowners that he defends as white are the heirs of the shameful Apartheid system and that those same lands were stolen from blacks at the time of their arrival in South Africa. Trump's accusations, however, reflect the influence of his rich supporters and at their head Musk who is the son of that Apartheid system and of those shameful stories and tragedies that have besmirched the country and the African continent itself for centuries. We therefore find in this approach and in these policies the end of democracy and the regime change that day after day is emerging from the measures and decrees that President Trump, supported by these oligarchs, is launching, raising very broad questions of constitutionality. The attack on Harvard University, guilty of not having conformed to his political choices, is emblematic in its originality and in revealing the true identity of those who want to muzzle political dissent. If the European right-wing extremists on the rise and in government in many countries consider this model as the most effective to respond to the wars and crises of our time, the oppositions are unable to understand that we are facing a return to Nazism and dictatorship precisely by those who once built their empires and their political identity on the ashes of the Nazi-fascist system. The very rift with Russia is a plot to weaken the anti-Nazi and anti-democratic front that emerged with the same American oligarchic class now ruling the throne of the White House. Finally, those who sing Trumpian songs in Europe are acting against the same citizens and the same European history that made cooperation and the sharing of values ​​and democracy the pillars that have guaranteed peace and security in Europe and that today are wavering because they have returned to the hands of extremists and imperialists of all stripes.
