Was Thomas the Train on time? That's the important question...

Fascist trains always run on time. It's one of their only virtues. :mrgreen:

The extreme left is always looking for something to call Fascist.

That's true.

Also, the extreme right is always looking for something to call "communist".

I consider it a compliment to be labeled a fascist or a nazi by progressives.

No you just like to try to piss people off, that is more than likely all it is.

FASCISM (n): A political philosophy, movement, or regime that exalts nation, race, and/or religion above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.

I might add that such a "philosophy, movement, or regime" is, more often than not, patriarchal; that is, it is a government that is composed of men who rule the state for their own benefit. Women in a fascist state tend to be subjugated as wives, housekeepers, caregivers, and breeding stock for the male "Master Race". For example, ISIS, if allowed to exist, would be a patriarchal fascist state.

Thus, if the current crop of neo-Facists have their way, women in America would likely be removed from all positions of authority -- i.e., doctors, engineers, lawyers, politicians, professors, scientists, teachers, et cetera -- and kept at home for the pleasure and sufferance of their husbands.

And woe betide any woman who speaks out against a Fascist regime, for abandonment, abuse, and repeated assault would be her fate -- just ask any burka-clad Muslim woman with scars across her back . . . or Heather Heyer . . .

Hey, chill out, kids! The mods seem to be less tolerant of threads that devolve into hostilities these days.

No hostility on my part, though I'll probably be the one who takes the rap for it...

In the past, you have repeatedly stated that you love it when liberals get pissed off.
This isn't a personal attack because it's 100% true.

Well, I have richly enjoyed their anguish over Trump if that's what you mean. :P

lol it doesn't take mind reading to notice that, you stated its a compliment to be labeled a fascist or nazi...leading me to the conclusion you enjoy trying to piss people off. Also I am curious, would it be a compliment if a conservative labeled you as a fascist or nazi, or just if progressives do?

Coming from conservatives it's a thing of humor.
Even though I've never espoused nazism or antisemitism, since about 14 I've oftentimes been labeled a nazi.
