>I mean that they give off Fascist vibes, and that it's a problem

But you've just repeated the accusation and said that you think it's a problem. You haven't provided proof of any actual fascism.

I disagree that DHH is a fascist, I do agree he gives off Musk vibes e.g.

https://world.hey.com/dhh/mega-a0f62cd4 "so pumped up about Trump"

https://world.hey.com/dhh/failed-integration-and-the-fall-of... "multiculturalism is bad"

https://world.hey.com/dhh/the-social-media-censorship-era-is... "hooray for lack of fact checking"

(you may agree with him or not, and he makes better argument than Musk, but it's the same vibe)

What do any of those quotes have to do with fascism?

I think you’ve discovered the corollary to the “Everything I don’t like is woke” that people say right wingers do. “Everything we don’t like is fascist,” says the far left.

Only way to avoid being called either a fascist or woke (and I know some who are accused of both!) nowadays is to never say anything.
