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.
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.
That this comment is still up five days later, and amidst the current news, is a shocking failure by the mods.
What an embarrassment.
Who has actually expressed or implied this definition of fascism?
Why is this comment allowed to stay up?
Nope. Where it's defined as people enacting or cheering right wing authoritarian destruction of democratic society.
Like the supporters of Donald Trump.
Feel free to keep putting those goal posts wherever you feel like today.
