Are you sick of the left calling us 'Fascists'?

Well, you weren't the first...
From a column in The Tribune on March 24, 1944:
"I've heard it applied to shopkeepers, fox-hunters, bull-fighting, Rudyard Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuals, youth hostels, astrologists, women, dogs and more. Any English person would accept 'Bully' as a synonym for 'Fascist.' That is as near to a definition as this much-abused word has become."

I enjoy being called a fascist by a dude who has a fricking SS Death's Head tattoo on his chest.

Always remember: Their accusations are confessions.

Nah, majority couldn't even define the term. It's like a special needs kid who wants to feel validated.

Fascists versus Communists. Sounds like 1938 Spain

I really dont give a shite

Orwell also said overuse of the term has rendered it useless as a political descriptor.

Probably been using it from the shadows for a long time. Currently they have been enabled by a weak pathetic political party to be day walkers. The fagots need to go back, in the dark corner

Sticks and stones, knives and guns, but names that don’t apply are stupid.
I developed an immunity by being considered RACIST, because I’m white.

Doesn’t really bother me. No one from the left has ever said it face to face. Perhaps one day one will try to punch me for being on the right.

If you’re a communist, the absolute worst thing you can call someone is a fascist.
Today’s American Democratic Party is filled to the brim with communists so we get to hear them call lots of people and things that stand against them “fascist”.

I am just sick of the left in general. They all suck and are the enemy
Posted on 6/7/26 at 10:31 am to Zach
I wear it as a badge of honor at this point.

Most of them couldn't define fascism if you gave them a dictionary, (assuming they can read).

Not at all. Because I'm not a fascist.
What am I sick of?
The left being nothing but power hungry fascists.
And commies.
And nazis.
They will seek power and control by any means necessary.

Meh... as another poster wisely stated- sticks and stones.
Posted on 6/7/26 at 10:50 am to Zach
It doesn’t bother me because it has lost its meaning. Just like calling something or someone racist doesn’t mean shite anymore outside of their fantasyland.

Yeah, it's used as a convenience in discussion when a lefty is too stupid to get specific. I see lots of man-on-the-street interviews during protests that go like this:
Q: 'Why are you protesting Trump?'
A: 'Because he's horrible. He's detroying America!'
Q: 'What has he done, specifically, to destroy America?
A: 'Uh, well, Uh, He's a Fascist!'

Radicals aren’t new. The difference today is, they’ve taken over the democrat party.
