A world for all of us, not just the billionaires

I find myself agreeing with the article’s general assertion that the global elite has amassed an unfair and disproportionate amount of power and influence compared to everyone else.

It’s shocking to me that such flagrant corruption and economic abuse go virtually unpunished and think that this is why we need people like Bernie Sanders more than ever, even if only to raise awareness on these issues and attempt to mobilize people against the exploitative establishment...

I disagree with the article but that's by the by. This section however, caught my eye, simply because there are many things wrong with it:

And Eastern Europe, which suffered horribly from the scourge of fascism, is once again seeing the rise of demagogues like Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and Germany’s Alexander Gauland, one of the heads of the far-right Alternative for Germany party.

First off, both the examples aren't even in Eastern Europe. Germany is considered to be Central Europe. Hungary is often too (it's cited as being in central europe in wikipedia for instance). Secondly, Eastern Europe suffered from both fascist invasions and communist governments, however communist regimes have had a longer lasting negative impact, due to the longer time they were in power. For instance, Ukraine got fucked over during the russian civil war, fucked over during the holodomor, fucked over by the nazis in world war 2, then fucked over by the post wwii communist regime again. You could have just said authoritarianism and that would have been better. As for examples, Jarosław Kaczyński would probably have been a good example.

I understand Sanders is like many americans and gets confused about aspects of Europe, but stuff like this doesn't fill me with confidence. Being somewhat informed isn't that hard.
