    Well I must admit I’ve never met someone who is arrogant enough to claim they know more about fascism than someone who lived through Mussolini’s regime. I suppose you also know more about the Holocaust than a survivor of Auschwitz.

      If you want to refer to fascism only as it relates to Mussolini’s regime, then 99% of people using the word in America have no concept of the word. I’m referring to modern day fascism here in America.

      Nor do I claim that I know more. I’m giving my perspective and opinion on the matter as people online frequently do, and sometimes they turn out to be accurate. I wouldn’t want corporate news as they frequently do to say, “Here we have a survivor of Auschwitz, the sole authority of Nazism to tell you why Kamala is a Nazi. Everything they say must be true and you can’t question it.”

      Would you want that?

        No, you’re referring to being butthurt because some of your posts got deleted which means fascism.

        Which is such a privileged position that I am honestly astounded.

          Is Trump a fascist to you, and if so why did you help him get elected? Do you think when you censor other people online and berate them, especially when they want progressive policies and peace, that it somehow helps you?

            Please explain exactly how I helped Trump get elected. Specifically what did I do?

              Again, I ask…

              Do you think when you censor other people online and berate them, especially when they want progressive policies and peace, that it somehow helps you?

              You indicate that Trumpism is fascism. The concept of attacking people that help you because they’re not blindly loyal is one of the elements of fascism in the link you posted, and one of the reasons Kamala lost. Are you saying you never did that? That you welcomed third parties and showed them that you were willing to push for Kamala to change her positions up until the election?

                Are you saying you never did that?

                You tell me. You are the one pointing the finger. Show your evidence. Or was it a lie?

                That you welcomed third parties and showed them that you were willing to push for Kamala to change her positions up until the election?

                Why is that my job? I was not part of her campaign and I am not a member of her party.

                Now, let’s see your evidence.

                  Why are you even bothering to respond at all then? Why claim that I’m butthurt that comments were removed and privileged for saying that Democrats also lean towards fascism?

                    Because I don’t like liars.

                    And you have now lied about me too. Why did you lie about me?
