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.

      The people with opinions over a fucking JOURNALIST not seeing fascism while it’s arresting his peers are doing the same thing as a fucking fascist!?

      Holy hyperbole!

      What the fuck is wrong with you?! “We want allies on our side… oh not YOU. YOU’RE JUST AS BAD AS THE FASCISTS! You must be a PLANT!”

      Go fuck yourself you clear fucking hypocrite.

      Oh and if that turns you into a fascist because i was mean to you then you already were one. Now fuck off.

      Edit: when you fuck up people will be pissed off at you. Grow the fuck up if you can’t handle that. The answer is not to turn into a fucking fascist it’s to fucking apologize for being wrong.

      Exhibit A

      Pick a random one of these posters to engage in a conversation to change their mind and you will often find the same toxic behaviors, bad faith arguments, red herrings, strawman arguments. It’s like they’re all reading from the same encyclopedia of bad faith rhetoric.
