              If by ‘fascism’ you mean a totalitarian government that has abolished any political opposition and consolidated control over there courts and security forces then I would have to agree. But if you just mean a hateful right wing government that does bad things then no, I do not agree. In fact, one of those was in power in the United States from 2016 to 2020 and they were defeated by… voting, not murder. You’re not living in Nazi Germany, calm down and start organizing. But also buy guns, just in case.

            Would you prefer we send them a sternly written letter or write a witty op-ed piece on our blogs?

              Yes. Convince people why what they’re doing is bad, not that it’s bad only when they do it but a Good Thing, Actually when your side does it.

                Panty-waist centrist horse shit. I’m sure WWII wouldn’t have been necessary if the Allied leadership just tried to convince Hitler that his genocidal expansionist agenda was bad with sound argumentation and reasoning, you intellectually dishonest walnut.

        Sure is.

        And if it happened in real life, I can’t say I’d be bothered by it at this point.

        I wouldn’t commemorate it with a glass of champagne like I would for some folks, but I don’t think I’d be even remotely upset about it.

        Good. Violence is the only language these scum understand.

        Zero tolerance for intolerance.
