America is sick with fascism

Avery accomplished and famous doctor recently told me, "if you really listen to the patient, they will tell you the diagnosis." His advice applies to many areas of life. For example, journalists and other people who think and write publicly about politics should follow it. When newsmakers (and everyday people too) talk, we should listen closely and not try to impose our own meaning and agendas on what they say. Too many times there is an impulse and bad habit of trying to discern secret meanings to triangulate and make inferences that are not present or merited.


If you listen closely, people will tell and show you who they really are, what they actually believe, and by doing so reveal their true character. Such a process of honest listening brings us much closer to the truth — even if we do not like what we find there. To wit, when Donald Trump and his supporters communicate their threats, love of violence, and overall contempt for democracy, they mean exactly what they say.


Words have actual meanings. Through her words, Greene has repeatedly shown herself to be a hate monger, white supremacist, White Christian nationalist, antisemite, neofascist and supporter of the Jan. 6 coup. Those facts must be repeated and not assumed or otherwise glossed over as something "obvious" because to do so is to normalize evil. And it is through normalization that neofascism and other forms of authoritarianism and illiberalism penetrate and poison an entire society.

The United States was never a democracy.
It is DEMOCRATS that threaten and commit acts of violence (example: the vandalism of statues and memorials, the burning of cities, the wanton assaults and murders on city streets, the racism, the hate, etc.

YOU have shown yourself to be a hate monger, a racist, a bigot, a fascist, a communist, and a supporter of the Jan 6 violence (there was no coup on Jan 6), and the coup by DEMOCRATS (and so has Lefty, who agreed with you).

Marjorie Taylor Greene's speech at CPAC (and the larger pattern of attacks on the LGBTQ community by the right-wing) is part of a strategy known as stochastic terrorism, where a malign actor uses repetition, coded language and overt threats, humor, and other rhetorical moves to stigmatize an entire group of people as a way of encouraging violence against them. When said outcome takes place, those same actors will then deny any connection to the lethal events they incited.

America is sick with fascism. Fascism, at its core, is corrupt power. The Republican fascists and their allies and followers will not stop with the LGBTQ community, they are targeting other groups of people who they deem to be "un-American" or "immoral" or "not Christian." By its very nature, fascism knows no limits or boundaries to its violence and cruelty. That rule applies to those people who are sympathetic to or even outright support Donald Trump, the Republican fascists, and the "conservative" movement. Such leaders have no respect for their followers and view them with contempt. In that way, fascism is cannibalistic. It starts with the so-called Other before it then turns its sights to "normal" people.

Redefinition fallacy (fascism<->corruption). It is the DEMOCRATS (and the 'LGBTQ community') and are filled with hate. Fascism is government manipulation of markets. It is socialism. It is what DEMOCRATS want.

Birdman lies, making up his own definitions and thinking he is fooling us. https://www.oxfordreference.com/dis...4;jsessionid=4C83C7F9044933BE99E5C46CC4CDB65E Fascism is a far right system. If you took any history in college and stayed awake, you would have learned that much. He just says the opposite and claims victory.

You know, I keep asking what qualities Fascism has that make it far right and keep getting either nothing or answers that don't make any sense...

Redefinition fallacy. Fascism is a form of socialism. It is government manipulation of markets.
No dictionary defines any word. False authority fallacy.
