    The problem with saying everyone is a fascist is it desensitizes everyone so they don’t know what an actual fascist is.

    Unless that was your plan all along…

    Are you a fascist?

    You sound like a fascist, so you’re probably a fascist. If you’re probably a fascist that means you’re definitely a fascist.

    When will you stop being a fascist?

          Do you understand that the point youre making is that it is not fascist to kill a vulnerable subgroup of the population that has been marked as undesirable?

          Do you also understand that your point is directly contradictory to every single professional study of real, actual fascist organizations and governments?

        Maybe we should make a list of things that aren’t fascist, it would save a lot of time. I mean if Obama doesn’t make the “not fascist” list, then what actually does make that list?

        We should also consider compiling a list of actions that are not genocide, because that word seems to be slapped on everything nowadays too.

        Or maybe we could create a fascist scale and grade every world leader past and present to prove that everyone is a little bit fascist and therefore fascism is nothing to worry about. “You know in some ways we could consider Obama to be a little bit fascist…”

        Or maybe we should just focus on the fascists that a clear and present threat to democracy. Like Trump and Putin. Might make it a little easier to consider what needs to be done to prevent democracy from being ended by these assholes.
