Let's take a look at the 12 early warning signs of FASCISM!!!! OHHHHH!!!

T for Trump (D) for (D)emocrat.

1. Powerful and continuing nationalism - T dawg all the way. Democrats fucking HATE the USA, they are anti-nationalist oikophobes.

2. Disdain for human rights (D)'s.....holy shit with covid around they don't give ANY fuck about rights of any kind.

3. Identification of enemies as a unifying cause- Both really.

4. Rampant sexism- nobody supports sexism much less is it a rampant issue.

5. Controlled mass media - (D)'s arguably have the overwhelming share of media control.

6. Obsession with national security- Both.

7. Religion and government intertwined - Neither.

8. Corporate power protected- (D)'s bigger than shit...don't fuck with silicon valley, HC or education industry, (D)'s will get you all sorts of FUCKED for that.

9. Labor power suppressed- (D)'s bigger than shit....killed their gig economy in California, they're not just making being in business hard just getting work is now outlawed in CA. SO progressive!! NY and WA are fans and looking to do the same.

10. Disdain for intellectual and the arts- This is pretty far from being fascist specific but even if it were, it's not really something either side here in the US has.

11. Obsession with crime and punishment- again, totally not fascist specific, but(T) because not anarchist moron like (D)'s.

12. Rampant cronyism and corruption- Again, totally not fascist specific, nor even party specific at this point.

As much as I loath responding to you directly, I just couldn't let this pass.

Trump has openly stated that he envies Xi and Putin's power to dictate.

The only reason Trump isn't a dictator right now is the checks and balances of our institutions. Those institutions are being steadily eroded by Trump and his enablers.

Trump IS a fascist.

You are an idiot.

No they are not.

The only people trying to erode those institutions are the (D)eez.

Trump is a neo-liberal.....you are a delusional leftist.

He doesn’t envy them, he respects them, big difference. If our institutions are working why are you delusional socialist trying to tear them down?

I see you don't know anything about communism either.

Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe. The first fascist movements emerged in Italy during World War I, before spreading to other European countries. Opposed to liberalism, Marxism, and anarchism, fascism is placed on the far right within the traditional left–right spectrum.

You shouldn’t loath responding to me directly. I take your name calling in stride and I don’t hide by putting posters on iggy, I’m always interested in others point of view.

The correct phraseology is “I SAY AGAIN” repeat is a term used to recall indirect fire support! Just kidding!

 

[jomar]

Lol, bullshit.

He's pretty much nailing 11 of the 12 signs of fascism.

And that's not including refusing to commit to abide by election results or demanding that his political opponents be jailed.

You're just a fascist supporting fucktard.

FescueFan beat me to it. Trump is a neo-liberal, not authoritarian. Authoritarian = elected officials mistreating citizens and nothing more. ANYTHING ELSE = / = authoritarian behavior/attempts/leaning/desires, Bill Barr and the ride of the Valkyries helicopter trip to the Mussolini balcony show of strength #gaspingforbreath notwithstanding. Ergo, trump is definitely not a weak authoritarian.

Sorry but I completely disagree with your one criteria.

Here is a comparison between neoliberalism and fascism:

Neoliberalism is a set of practices that favors entrepreneurs and corporations, supports--often below the radar--massive state subsidies for the corporate estate, presses for radical deregulation of private markets, treats labor as an abstract factor of production, celebrates the authority of courts governed by a neoliberal jurisprudence, hates collective social movements on the left, protects imperial drives, strives to render democracy minimal, and moves to dismantle or weaken unions, social security, public schools and universal voting if and when the opportunities arise.

Fascism is a form of capitalism that dismantles democracy, pushes intense nationalism, pursues racism, deploys big lies systematically, attacks vulnerable minorities to energize its base, corrupts courts, drives to make the media its mouthpiece, places police and intelligence agencies under its wing, colludes with foreign dictatorships, welcomes vigilante groups beneath a veneer of deniability, and jacks up the intensity of cultural ruthlessness

.

I think the Trump administration clearly falls into the fascism category.

So correct....this is why Trump has been trying to dismantle the other checks and balances and stack the court. He actually thinks the court owes him or something like that...

He is a Neo-fascist.

Correct on this post...Facism is opposed to liberalism, Communism, Socialism, Anarchy. Correct!!!!

Ding, ding, ding, ding....this is why these right-tards misidentify Hitler, Stalin, Il Duce as Socialist/Communist every time....They were Facists and it is a far-Right form of control.

Ah, I see you missed FF and my authoritarian discussion, not that you should have tuned in. My post was tongue in cheek as I think trump is an authoritarian dictator wannabe and has behaved in ways supporting that. FF disagrees because words mean things and he reduced authoritarian to equal elected officials mistreats citizens period full stop and nothing else smacks of authoritarian.
