I have no idea what this is even supposed to mean. But that's what fascism is — right wing authoritarianism built around a leader cult merging racist populists with a corporate elite, directing state violence at marginalized/demonized groups. Which is what Trumpism is.

There's a political illiteracy in our politics (I'm including Canada, but more prevalent in the US it seems) that says fascism is hitler himself and the swastika and nothing else.

Which makes their confidence in their literacy so bizarre. koheripbal's reaction to the uncontroversial observation is to first convince himself that it must be wrong and then project a specific and fantastical reason to explain why we have observed it. He really thinks he has figured something out.

So the person who literally defends the right of citizens to be armed to defend themselves and right for their speech is an authoritarian destructor? Man I used to think HN consisted of intellectuals with more logic. I guess I was wrong.
