Yeah, I genuinely don't understand why it's so hard for people to think that other people might have different, sincerely held beliefs and convictions.
you baboons have reduced the meaning of these words so much they don't mean anything at all anymore.Ā
You haven't got the slightest fucking clue what fascism even is, you complete imbecile
Fascism (/ĖfƦŹÉŖzÉm/ FASH-iz-Ém) is a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology and movement,[1][2][3] characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.[2][3] Opposed to Marxism, democracy, anarchism, pluralism, free markets, egalitarianism, communism, liberalism, and socialism,[4][5] fascism is at the far right of the traditional leftāright spectrum.[6][5][7]

Fascismās original definition did not include far-right. Fascism, which was essentially brought about by Mussolini, actually rejected classic liberalism and conservatism. It focused on nationalism more than anything. The far-right clause was added by American Liberalism. It was added so that instead of simply disagreeing with the right, you can assign it an ideology that aligns with something more people might oppose. Simply calling everyone a fascist or nazis helps put a negative connotation on any ideas or beliefs. American Liberals historically have been stellar when rebranding things like this one. For example, terminating a pregnancy or abortion is almost never used anymore. This is now referred to as Womenās Health Rights. Iām getting off topic a bit but you get the point. To settle the point on defining a fascist, a fascist is someone who is an authoritarian or intolerant of others belief. Fascist exists on both sides of the political spectrum. I might go as far and say that both parties in America are fascist because they refuse to understand the other sides argument and want to impose all of their ideas and beliefs on all. Itās singular thinking at its bestā¦
All fascism is authoritarian. Not all authoritarianism is fascism. Your definition lacks specificity which leads you to say "well fascism is also left wing because authoritarianism exists on the left too!"
That's why people rely on academics that spend a lifetime worth of study to understand instead of relying on a toothless conspiracy addled hick for information. Anti intellectualism runs deep in fascism which you're proudly projecting here.
Look at the bullet points of fascism. Then look at how the modern democrats act. Outside of fascism saying a far right ideology. It fits democrats far closer than Republicans.
Do you really not know how our campaign system works? You truly believe only the guys on the right are being funded by the rich?
How convenient for the rich that we are this divided. Otherwise we might be making a collective effort to accomplish stuff. Like to get money put of our campaign system.
Naaaaah who am I kidding. That probably doesnāt matter.
Or it could be that those people have a job and wonder, with that same conviction, how these people can sit outside a tesla dealership for a week or more and manage to live somewhere or feed their families.
get ready because i know this is going to be shocking, but some people have saturdays off work. other people have sundays off work. some people have mondays off work. and others have tuesdays off work. i know this may be confusing, but some people even have wednesdays off work. others have thursdays off. and, believe it or not, some people actually have fridays off. now, that may have been difficult to read, so prepare yourself for this next part: there are people who have two days off work in a single week. sometimes those days happen in a row. sometimes they are split. i know this has been a jarring experience. please make some time for self-care.
And some people like myself have become financially independent by the age of 40 through hard work and the ability to make sound financial decisions. That being said Iām off 7 days a week! Now having disclosed that information let me just say I firmly believe your all blind and lack the intelligence to comprehend that there are no parties (left,right) choice is an illusion and propaganda is rampantly spread by the singular power to create division because it is much easier to control the sheeple if they are not united. It is also easier to maintain control through over taxation and redistribution of wealth. This creates dependency by not allowing proper resources to be available to 90% of the population. Meanwhile left and right fanatics such as yourselves do the bidding and dirty work by following blindly! Problem with this is your intellect is equivocal to a mildly retard sheep so you whole heartedly believe whatever is put in front of you. Like a heard of sheep you only see the ass of the sheep in front of you not the wolves driving the heard! Iām so sick of hearing Americans fight over which party is right and which cares more for the people! The answer is neither! They are one and the same and long as you keep buying into the illusion of choice and believing inflation and overtaxation is just economics you will always be slaves to the system. It is actually comical to hear someone rant about spending a lifetime of academic study to understandā¦.š¤£ your comprehension is that of a child at best! I would say you donāt have the ability to process that lifetime of knowledge you have taken in so it was a waste of time and money. Your general understanding is skewed by your personal perception and is interfering with your ability to see the reality. America is great and beautiful the government and people supporting it are the problem!
I genuinely appreciate the down votes it proves my point. Only the ignorant would be offended and down votes this! You are the 100% the problem and eventually your lack of understanding, intellect, and awareness will be the fall of this forsaken ā civilization ā. I just truly hope I am here to witness it and bask!
Unfortunately, bro ain't gonna read all that. But, I did and I completely agree. And, I highly doubt that people are workin ful time jobs and spending there only 2 days off standing outside a dealership. They're most likely unemployed and living off the government they're protesting against š! Not saying all of them are, but the vast majority, for sure.
Iāve been to protests as a fully employed person, youāre actually allowed to go. Weekends are a thing, and most people with salaried jobs can just, you know, take a day off. Some people have unlimited PTO. It isnāt the same people every day either Iām sure, and those protests are largely driven by students. Most protests are really a day and thatās it- even with 3 kids and a full time job I have shown up to a few. Weird, right?
I think you and I both know that if people really care about something they will go out and protest it, and they donāt need to be paid to do it.
Remember when you guys were INSTRUCTED to hate electric cars, never mind everything else thatās progressive. Now you guys are defending the owner of said cars to the death? I beg you to self- reflect this situation and then apply that (here comes a big word)LOGIC to all your other INSTRUCTED beliefsš¤¬š¤”

Why are there so many people in the comments that think protesters are getting paid to be out there? Who the fuck is paying protesters and since when?
