Fascist is a word with an actual meaning. I know it's fun to call the democrats fascists, but that's incorrect and ridiculous.
So doing genocide and cracking down on free speech isn't fascist?
No, those are not part of the definition of fascism.
Try this link and this one to start, if you want to educate yourself on the topic. Then if you still believe the Democratic Party fulfills the definition of fascist, come back and tell us which characteristics you think makes it so.
Aside from contempt for liberalism there's no difference, and Biden's contempt for the left more than makes up for it. It's more accurately neoliberal, but has a lot in common with fascism and you refuse to see it. That's why he's doing genocide and brutalizing people protesting against it. Similar ideologies produce similar outcomes.
fascism DOES gave a definition written by Mussolini. democrats fit the bill.
They just hear us say it about them so they assume it's just a bad word to throw at people you don't like, similar to doo doo head, or fart sniffer.
Yes because it is right wingers saying "the lesser evil is still fascist"
Please consider expressing internally consistent ideas.
Wait who do you think "they" is in this sentence? Do you think people here are arguing to vote for Trump?
They would be anyone who says "Dems are fascist"
They are fascists though.
Democrats are closer to Vichy than Fascista
