Yes, It’s Fascism | Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

    god fucking forbid we hurt the feelings of a rapist pedophile con man by calling him a fascist, which he literally is.

    His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

      That’s literally how children act. It’s fucking insane, this is not some keen business man, he’s a petulant spoiled child.
