Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn said it best, I paraphrase. “Liberalism must give way to socialism. Socialism gives way to communism.”
It’s the nature of progressivism to get people to flirt with government interventionism and wait for the opportunity to take control.
Gee I wonder if that is why they have convinced everyone here (almost) to carry a cell phone. Most people cannot function at all without a phone on walking or driving. People will give up their freedom before they give up their phones.

“Liberalism must give way to socialism. Socialism gives way to communism.”
Here’s what happens:
(1) The Fascists gravitate to Liberalism because that’s where they’ll simply have more power over others.
(2) The Fascists then use Socialism as their cover for implementing top-down economic policy, which ALWAYS fails.
(3) The people get sick of having a wrecked economy, so they want the Socialists out. However, since Socialists/Liberals are only their for power over others they refuse to leave.
(4) So Communism is next, as the Fascists cling to power.
