Enlightened Centrist thinks we should like talk to each other man instead of burning schools down, paid shills (i.e. bottom-feeding cucks) get completely fricking histrionic about their right to exist

No see @pizzashill is using the exact same definition of fascism that the rest of the left uses: 'Anyone committing wrongthink that I disagree with'

Amerirights are libertarian-leaning in general. Sure you got your authy types, but the fundamental ideology is very nosteppysnek, government fek ov, etc. They're anything but fascist.

Also, Trump had every opportunity and justification to use the insurrection act during the 2020 BLM riots and he didn't. It actually pissed off his authier fanbase. The man is a lot of things (idiot, narcissist, fricking hilarious, etc), but he's not a fascist.

My god man you people have no clue whatr you are talking about.

Well, for one, the core, fundamental notion of fascism is that the state stands above everything else, be it family, religion, race, anything. It is a totalitarian ideology first and foremost. For another, the economic system of fascism is, as it's social policy, totalitarian:

No, it is not a fundamental notion of fascism before fascists obtain power. Fascism is primarily a set of emotional traits and national mood - the stuff you're talking about comes after.

The Trumptard base is fundamentally authoritarian and in favor of government authoritarianism, as long as it targets the right people. Rather than adherence to the state, fascists primarily operate via cult of personality and said cult serves as the avatar of the nation, the people.

Hannah Arendt, on totalitarianism:

“In an ever-changing, incomprehensible world the masses had reached the point where they would, at the same time, believe everything and nothing, think that everything was possible and that nothing was true. ... Mass propaganda discovered that its audience was ready at all times to believe the worst, no matter how absurd, and did not particularly object to being deceived because it held every statement to be a lie anyhow. The totalitarian mass leaders based their propaganda on the correct psychological assumption that, under such conditions, one could make people believe the most fantastic statements one day, and trust that if the next day they were given irrefutable proof of their falsehood, they would take refuge in cynicism; instead of deserting the leaders who had lied to them, they would protest that they had known all along that the statement was a lie and would admire the leaders for their superior tactical cleverness.”

American rightoids are absolutely not the-state-above-all types, and are very much free market types. I'm sorry, but the glove doesn't fit. They're authoritarian conservatives, but fascism is more specific than that.

And my point is you have no idea what fascism is. Fascism, again, is a set of emotional traits, a national mood, with a completely fluid set of goals until they obtain power.

You're also again, confusing the idea of the state with the idea of the nation and the people. Trumptards are absolutely hyper-nationalists that believe the nation comes above all else and any action is justified in defense of the nation and the ideas they associate with the nation.

And Trump - as their avatar of the nation, has absolute loyalty from them. When he speaks, they listen. His core base will believe anything he says, do anything he tells them to do.

Oh God yeah, just wide open and calm. Full of understanding.

Except I do.

someday they’ll just admit they want to kill them all. I’ll have a lot more respect for them when they do.

I wish I had a meme that went something like this, except it'd be "all fascists are nazis, a HS drop outs understanding of political ideology."

He doesn't.
