Yeah like America, a country which pretends to be democratic but is actually a dictatorship of the bourgeois. I'm glad we're on the same page.

Not a socialist, but I am genuinely curious.

Is there any socialist revolution that you wouldn't class a fascist?

Well, Chile was a democratic election but then came the CIA because those nasty people wanted their own resources for themself!

OK, that's as good an answer as any.

Salvador Allende got couped three years after his election. Are there any ways you can think to prevent a foreign power from undermining future hypothetical socialist governments that wouldn't be authoritarian?
