Peacemaker's views were called proto fascist. They weren't saying all libertarian views are fascist.

I don't think she was calling all his views as proto-fascist, she was specifically describing his idea of freedom as proto-fascist and libertarian. She said "Why did you not choose to help them? Because of your proto-fascist libertarian idea of freedom?" I'm pretty sure that by her describing his idea of freedom as "proto-fascist libertarian" she didn't mean either adjective to be complimentary, and that she views the two adjectives in a similarly condescending way.

At least that is how I took it.

just binged this weekend with the wife... we loved it. if you haven't seen it, yet, this gif should be all that you need.


also, i've never heard of "Peacemaker" or "Vigilante" before this show or Gunn's "The Suicide Squad", but Vigilante definitely came across as very Deadpool-like. All that was missing from him was breaking the 4th wall.
