Fascist tries to kill civilians for political beliefs/Most media ignores it

You lack an understanding of the definition.

Read it closer and look at the words tendency toward autocratic control. His actions support this. Autocratic means taking no account of other people's wishes or opinions; domineering.

Is he not in support of such a thing? Political violence is the definition of domineering and taking no account of the wishes of others' wishes or opinions. Fascism is much more than supporting Hitler or a single figure. It is a philosophy and a way of being that has been demonstrated. This man is a modern day brown shirt. Anyone enacting political violence in such a manner fits the definition perfectly. You my friend are mistaken.

The great irony of these antifa types, Bernie/communist supporters, or just the insane left these day, is that many claim to be against fascism but are willing to engage in fascistic actions in order to accomplish their political aims.

 

I don't need the news to think for me... but clearly you do.

 

At first I noticed you were thinking of me and then it dawned on me... you can think?

 

You are taking issue that I chose a definition? I didn't go and write the dictionary. I didn't go an make these definitions out of thin air. I didn't choose anything. I am just showing you what the word you didn't understand meant. You are reaching.

I will also explain to you that I used a definition to explain my position more clearly. Sorry if that's a problem for you. I chose the one that teaches you the meaning of it and it is a correct definition from a reputable source. Again I didn't write the definition. I am not that powerful.

Further, I am also, for argument sake, sticking to the definition of fascism provided in this thread by another poster who disagrees with me. I didn't bring that here or choose that, or write that definition.

I think you're just pissy. You are all out of ammo man, give it up already.

 

FIFY

spin your wheels some more and complain to each other and lick your wounds.

This was what I used.

a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control.

Also this apllies to stalin... i believe there is even a term called red fascism. But not in the same way. Stalin is the second part of that... the dictatorial part... in addition to the autocratic

The issue people here have is they do not have a grasp of the word OR. If you undertand how to logically apply that word then the defintion reads clearly.

 

Wrong. The opposite of fascicm is a liberal democracy. Fasicm is not a left right issue broski. You were trying to set a trap but you just displayed more ignorance. Also the term red fascism isn't needed. It is simply fascism. I thought mentioning red fascism might help you understand the different schools of thought on it but you clearly have a basic view of the political spectrum as completely polar where only the right can be fascist.

Again it is a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control. Autocracy is at the heart of it. This word has several meanings as well which must be taken into account.

Like many words there are many definitions. Fascism definitely has many. I am not shocked yall are arguing.
