On Tossing Around The Term "Fascist"

[NYcarbineer]

Conservatives don't want less government. Conservatives by a huge majority want an ever larger military,

the perfect example of centralized power where everything you do is controlled from one minute to the next.

 

[Compost]

So....today's lesson deals with the meaning and proper use of "Fascist"....so one may insult another properly.
And correctly.

I'm as big a fan as anyone of learning the definitions of terms. What I do not like to be instructed on how to "insult another properly". That smells of an all-encompassing entity attempting to control me.

Education is 'controlling' you?

Could be worse....ignorance could be doing it.

There are few things less unpleasant than a smart person with no sense of humor.

Partisans love tossing around words that end in "..ist" because they fit nicely on a bumper sticker.

That's about as deep as it gets.

Could you be any more of a hack?

Conservatives cant be fascist? LOL
Indeed they can. A lot of the conservatives in politics have fascist policies.
Regulating marriage to exclude gays is fascist.
NSA
Many many other examples.
Not to mention the whole concept of fascism is regulation and the right LOVES to regulate. Like their fascist healthcare.

That's silly as all hell dude. Up until very recently ALL major Democrat candidates stood for traditional marriage. That made them fascists? You can't be serious.

obamacare is a Republican creation? It didn't get one supportive vote. You use words like liberals do, you just throw them out because you know they mean bad things.

Doesn't matter. A brand doesn't deter meanings and intent. The Federal govt telling who can/cant get married is fascism. Period.
Fascist healthcare, like the ACA, was first introduced by a bunch of conservatives trying to stay away from socialist healthcare. Their answer to socialism was fascism

That mirror probably isn't very pleasant for partisans.

Right, fence-sitter?
.

What a stupid. puerile attempt at deflection!

"Fence sitter' is the term for individuals who stick to the middle of the road, in perpetual fear of irking one side or the other.

Or....individuals too dumb to know what two perspectives entail....and, hence, cannot choose which is better.

That would be you....one of the two....I'll let you choose.




But...are you actually suggesting that I am concerned as to how the other side of the aisle views me????????


Really?????


I tell it the way I see it....and am always.....every single time...willing an able to suppot my beliefs and my charges.



Wise up.

BTW....have you gotten around to reading Power's book in your sig???
She's no 'fence sitter.'

You never miss an opportunity to miss the point.

Article 1, section 8 covers the authorized powers of the federal government.
See if you find marriage in there.


Then check the 10th amendment.

Well, I'll say it again.

What you don't see is that you sit on a fence, too. Only the fence on which you sit is way off on one side of our little playground. Your vantage point gives you an excellent view of your little area, but a lousy view of the playground as a whole (even if you don't realize it). You appear to think you have the whole playground covered.

I like my fence much better.

LOL right back atcha. There are no federal marriage laws. No Republican voted for obamacare. You must have took a spill without a helmet.

The federal govt got involved with marriage. That was game over. They should have NEVER gotten involved.
What does it matter no one voted for ACA?

For hardcore ideologues, there are only two sides: My way or the wrong way. That's it, very binary.

Life just ain't binary, but they don't see that. Reduced vision is a symptom of hardcore ideology.

I know, but it also unconstitutional for a state to deny marriage to homosexuals.
Look, the bloated bureaucracy got involved with marriage. That was a game changer whether people like it or not. A state cant say no to gays. That is institutional discrimination and direct violation of our constitutional rights.

They got involved with equal protection under the law which is a constitutional prerogative.

Oh, and by the way, I didn't say that.

And DING!

As USMB's King of the Straw Man, you are allowed one (1) "I didn't say that" per thread. You may attempt to communicate with me on another thread, and I will determine at that time whether I will respond.

What tax incentive, and why would denying someone a tax incentive because of their sexual orientation be okay?
