        Now why would anticommies need to consult an organization for that when they’re clearly already capable of making up whatever shit that they want on their own? That’s another one of the great privileges of being an anticommie: you get to do zero studying!

          Whoah! You’ve opened my eyes. For the longest time I mistakenly thought that this video was the definitive answer on the topic, but your source completely blows it out of the water.

          I’m going to go share your links with everybody in my clique right now! Thanks for red‐pilling me!

      He was shocked when he learned of gay peoples oppression and shot those responsible for perptuating the persecution of homosexual men in camps

      He even went undercover as a gay man into a camp.

        “That’s a nice argument senator, why don’t you back it up with a source?”

        “My source is that I made it the fuck up.”

    Hmmm. I guess what your definition of “fascist” is. Seems to be whatever the person with the bullets doesn’t like.

      I’ll help you out. Here’s Stanley Payne’s definition, courtesy of the Wikipedia article on fascism:

      1. “Fascist negations" – anti-liberalism, anti-communism, and anti-conservatism.
      2. “Fascist goals" – the creation of a nationalist dictatorship to regulate economic structure and to transform social relations within a modern, self-determined culture, and the expansion of the nation into an empire.
      3. “Fascist style” – a political aesthetic of romantic symbolism, mass mobilization, a positive view of violence, and promotion of masculinity, youth, and charismatic authoritarian leadership

        More in depth is Umberto Eco’s essay: Ur Fascism

        One of the attributes I take as, if not essential then at least consistent, is the unanalyzed contradictions within any fascist system.

        Speech should absolutely be always free!

        Unless your speech involves disparaging public figures for transphobic bullshit, that is a crime, or educating children on facts of their own bodies and their right to tell anyone “no”, that’s obviously pedophilia, or actually worst of all even just sitting in your own home and thinking gay thoughts, super crime.

        The only functional economic system is the free market!

        But if a consumer chooses to patronize this brand rather than the transphobic one or some big corporation finds it profitable to speak out publicly against transphobic legislation that isn’t allowed, those are whimp tactics that cheat the market system!

        Men should be men and not sissies afraid to get their hands dirty!

        But I have a bad back so I can’t fix my own car, or my PTSD keeps me from obtaining a stable job and getting off government assistance, or I’d do any of those things everyone must do but the specific problem I have is the only good excuse for why I can’t but anyone else who doesn’t is a lazy whimp.

      Fascists are the neoliberal empire’s lackeys
