Socialism by definition is not anti establishment. It's anti current establishment but the philosophy is geared towards a bigger government "establishment".

I'm pretty sure that's the difference between anti establishing and anti government. the "establishment" is the established power structure. technically fascists ARE anti establishment in most places. and that's a very good thing.

Are they tho

Republicans are going mask off, Italy is run by fascists again, AfD is at 20%, Putin is invading neighbors and bankrolling white supremacists world wide, Israel's engaging in open genocide, their neighbors wish they could do the same, the second largest party in Sweden was founded by Neo-Nazis...

Don't forget India's BJP/VHP/RSS ecosystem.

that's still only a very small handful of places, though i agree. it's spreading.
