Expand on this.


You know exactly what it is. In fact, youre one of their targets.

So you would rather be condescending than listen to somebody who has actually lived though it. Just be careful what you think you are getting vs what you will actually be getting. Your future will not be what you seem to think it is.

Not really, I am getting used to the sheep like you that Atwater and Ailes created.

Both sides have become "fascists" since both parties are trying to control what we do with our lives/stepping on our personal freedoms. Anyone saying otherwise is living in a fantasy land.

Considering you don’t even have an elementary grasp of what communism is yet want to talk down to others is also quite laughable but you also think Kim Mulkey is sexy. So, you are either terrible at opinions or just good, old fashioned stupid. I will go with the latter

If your definition of fascism begins and ends with Hitler, then sure it fits your attempted Trump narrative but he didn’t create fascism. Mussolini created it and didn’t dwell on the past at all. He despised the monarchy. It’s true he did try to expand Italy’s influence militarily but the military was poorly run, trained, and organized. General Franco in Spain also fascist in principles, kept Spain out of WW2 and also despised Spain’s colonialist history. You seem to have forgotten that Hitler himself very much despised the industrial complex in terms of private enterprise and implemented numerous public works projects. I guess you have hyper patriotism going for you but the Nazis made soldiers sign an oath of allegiance to Hitler not the Fatherland.

It’s been proven trillions of times in the past decade that like 85%-90% or adults in this country have absolutely no idea what the philosophy of fascism is at all. I blame most of this on our school system and how closely tied to the communist they are (we the very upper echelon is and the higher learning institutions are). It’s neither a left or right philosophy by nature. It could theoretically be used by both ends. It just so happens that the only times it’s ever been tried were by leftist in Italy Germany and Spain.

Communism and Fascism are shades of the same color. Both require complete authoritarian government and suppression of individualism to be enacted.

They were "#1 enemies" in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s not because of massive ideological differences but because both sought what the other wanted - complete control.

did they stick "far right" in that definition recently or has it always been there? fascism is tricky and totally bipartisan IMO.

just curious if they're doctoring that definition too.
Nationalism somehow went from an admirable quality to "extremism" in a couple months.

If you are trying to sound smart by extolling its Latin origins then you would be correct but the modern version of it originated in Italy by a group of journalists led by Mussolini. He even coined the phrase
