Here’s the context thread the quote is from: https://hexbear.net/post/4475762 (the line is from a comment, please don’t bother the person who wrote the line).

I’m thinking, fascism has probably been stopped internally far more times than not? This quote is probably survivorship bias regarding a small number of particularly happenings. For the sake of the question, we’ll define “fascism” to exclude things like Imperialism or lite-fascist things like liberalism, only because then the context thread would have been about leaving fascist countries for other fascist countries.

IDK I just felt like “fascism hasn’t been stopped internally” needed some fact checking and revolutionary optimism.
