The republican party has become fascist.

[daveman]

Remember, kids, opposing Democrat totalitarianism is "fascism".

Well, according to idiots.

Laughing my ass off at "democrat totalitarianism".

Good one.

Of course. People often laugh at things they don't understand.

When Donald Trump was in the White House there was much debate about whether or not he could be called a fascist in the full sense of the word, and not merely as a political insult. His presidency showed many of the characteristics of a fascist dictatorship, except the crucial one of automatic re-election.

And that may change.

Seen xidens new Homeland Security directive?

Straight out of the Sicherheistdienst.

But you're too ignorant to understand what that even means.

You can't even spell it, dumbass. How could you possibly understand what it means?

Sicherheitsdienst

Blame my stupid phone, autosomal sucks. But look at poor fop little you attacking spelling instead of addressing the VERY fascist policies that the Dems are pushing.

You are so screwed. If the dems are able to set up their little fascist utopia you and your ilk will be the first ones they kill.

That's what they ALWAYS do.

Your phone has a genetic disorder?

And if you meant autocorrect, why would it autocorrect you to a misspelling?

You don't know what it means, you read it on some RWNJ website and believed their description.

Now sit down and shut up.

And you Googled it because you didn't know what it means, and it showed you the correct spelling.

The problem, of course, is that conservatives incorrectly perceive fascism as being ‘anti-Semitic,’ when in fact nothing could be further from the truth.

Indeed, there’s nothing inherently anti-Semitic about fascism; fascist dogma can be used to facilitate and ‘justify’ anti-Semitism, but not all fascists are anti-Semites.

And that’s the case with Republicans, conservatives, and others on the American right; some of whom are anti-Semites, but not the majority; that an American rightist might not hate Jews doesn’t mitigate the fact he’s nonetheless a fascist.

Anti-Semitism is a plank of the Democrat Party.

No Trumpbot can deny they are fascist unless they can convincingly make the case that they would have dumped Trump had he found some way to stay in power in spite of losing the election.

What's your definition of fascist?

I am willing to bet almost anything that if you were to explain it, it would be different to the actual real definition.

Fascism can be a slippery thing but it generally involves many of the following: Extreme nationalism, compulsory devotion to an authoritarian leader, single party rule, only one acceptable religion, scapegoating media/academia, an enemy within that needs to be locked up/wiped out, widespread domestic spying, militarized borders, militarized police, anti-Labor, anti-leftist, anti-communist, anti-truth.

Things that exclusively apply to Trump (and his supporters) :

Extreme nationalism - fair enough, I'll give you that.

I honestly think that's about it.

The borders stuff, remember Obama started the wall.

A lot of the other stuff you've listed could easily be applied to Democrats and Biden supporters too (compulsory devotion to an authoritarian leader, single party rule, scapegoating media, an enemy within that needs to be locked up hence the multiple attempts to try and impeach Trump without success, anti-labor, anti-truth)

It's not a question of anti-leftist, either. There's examples of left-wing fascists too.

What examples? Not saying leftists cannot become authoritarian but they usually do it under the banner of socialism and only then after toppling a brutal monarchy, plutocratic or fascist state.

Mussolini was a high-up member of the Italian Socialist Party - they were on the left and Mussolini is widely regarded as one of the biggest fascists in relative memory.

There's other examples - but I'll start with him.

But what you are trying to do here is obvious - trying to move the goalposts and say just because it's a socialist then it doesn't count. Sorry, it counts. You don't get to decide these things.

Mussolini was not a leftist by any definition. You are probably the first person I have ever heard make such a ludicrous claim. You must be exhausted from moving goal posts that far.

His main political affiliation was the Italian Socialist Party - who were on the left.

Is it common place in the land of magic inside your head where folk who are on the right, assign themselves with political parties/movements on the left?

It's a simple equation for leftists.

Did they do anything bad ever?

If yes, they're on the right.

If no, they're on the left.

They really do have this insanely simple mindset.

Considering the only reason anyone can be for the GOP of today is the total brainwash from international pariah Rupert murdak and internet crazies. So yes it is pretty simple. No election steal just phony scandals and conspiracies and the brainwash. Everything you know is wrong. You are the world's horror and laughing stock. Poor America

Anti-Semitism is a plank of the Democrat Party.

Back in reality, the Q-cult, which is openly antisemitic, now composes a third of the GOP.

Dave lovingly tongues the rectums of those antisemites. His whole party does. They can't afford to lose those antisemite votes. They've made a deal with the antisemite and white supremacist devil, and they can't back out of it.

I'm making it clear where we all stand. Democrats universally condemn antisemitism. Dave here makes excuses for his antisemite pals, and runs interference for antisemitism by projecting it on to Democrats.

This another reason why it's so good to be a liberal. There's no party ordering us to suck up to racists and antisemites.

Thanks for proving yet again my sigline is perfectly accurate.

Libs just say stupid shit. NOthing they say deserves any consideration beyond any internal logic it might have.


THe bit where he claims that there was "debate"? Ignore that. It is a claim. NOthing they claim has any validity.


THe bit where he claims it was not just a political insult? Ignore that. A libs' word means shit, to them, to you.


The bit where he says that Trump's presidency showed shit? He just said that, because he likes the taste when he pukes up shit out of his mouth.

Having problems with right-wing swine like Sharon and Netanyahu is not anti-Semitism just intelligence.

Because a lot of jews are more committed to their political ideology than to their Faith.

And you have become a kook, projecting his own party's insecurities on others.

Nope.

Look at the definition of fascism, then look at your party's actions.

If you are honest with yourself, you will see the relationship.

Okay.

There is no relationship. Only more projection from you.

Now, prove the relationship.

Prove Trump is a fascist.

Prove that the Republican party draws any of its ideals from fascist ideologies.

Or stop throwing the word "fascist" around, because you clearly don't know what fascism is.

The threat came after Twitter added fact-check links to his tweets for the first time.

March 30 2020
President Donald Trump's re-election campaign has told television stations their licenses could be in jeopardy if they do not stop showing what the campaign called a "patently false and misleading" ad from a Democratic Super PAC.

August 7 2020
President Donald Trump on Thursday issued executive orders that would ban the social media app TikTok and WeChat from operating in the US in 45 days.

In a day and age where these same folk try to tell you men can have babies, men can have periods, woman have penises and anyone can identify as a ninja shark it's par-for-the-course when it comes to the Looney Olympics. It's an extension of their quackery

Men can't have babies (in the meaning they can't give a birth) and biologically there are two sexes. That is not a question per se. But there are people who consider they are a woman despite having been born as a man (and vice versa). And now, the main question is what to do with these people.
