I watched the whole video, so I know what he said at the end, but:
Realistically, what’s going to defeat European fascism this time? There’s only one real way to defeat fascism and the Soviet Union isn’t around to do it again.
European Fascism doesn’t exactly require a whole lot of beating, this time around. In 1933, Germany had a large population of young people that could be fed into the meat grinder of the eastern front. Right now, all of Western Europe is facing an impending demographic catastrophe with incalculable consequences. Case and point: Germany’s strongest birth rates have been in the years of 1962 to 1965 with a pretty sharp decline and eventual stagnation around the mid 2000s. Retirement age in Germany is 65-67, thus in the waning years of this decade, Germany will face labour shortages it will not be able to accommodate. Now, imagine if fascists come to power in Germany and actually expel the quarter of the population that has a migration background (which, on average, is considerably younger than the “Bio-Deutsch” population). The country would be in ruin effectively immediately. This is no economic basis for a major military campaign on the scale of Operation Barbarossa.
The situation is not much better in the rest of Western Europe.
My mind honestly goes to cannibalistic fascism in which these countries utilize fascism to forestall outright labor disputes that in the end make shit EVEN WORSE because in the end fascism is an illogical reactionary ideology that is only good at murdering a crap ton of people.
