From you to "race realists" to Christian anticommunists to the US government to HP Lovecraft, western supremacists love to accuse people who know better than to guzzle chauvinist propaganda of simply having some vague, unspecified "fetish" for the Designated Enemy.
Of course, when you look at what else those people and groups do, it's easy to see which side is actually motivated by fetishism.
This is vibes-based.
Capitalism brought with it skyrocketing poverty rates, drug abuse, prostitution, homelessness, crime rates, and lowered life expectancy. An estimated 7 million people died due to the dissolution of socialism in the USSR. There's no fetish here, but instead a dedication to historical accuracy and fighting for a better world, where humanity organizes production and distribution to suit the needs of the people instead of the profits of the few.
It likely isn't worth continuing to argue on your end if you're going to stick with anecdote as your sole method of argumentation, and accuse me of having a fetish for bringing sources to back up my points.
