Are The Left The New Fascists?

[ToraToraTora]

With the growth in antisemitism and the systematic abuse of anyone who disagrees with the prescribed view on any given subject, are the left the new fascists?

[shoota]

Yes.

[ichkeria]

Are the old fascists still fascists - or now ex-fascists - or co-fascists along with all the other anti-Semites and people who abuse others who disagree with them ?

[shoota]

Mind you, with the way Stalin and other red leaders have behaved in the not too distant past, they always have been fascists.

[ToraToraTora]

good point shoota, they are the old fascists too!

[spathiphyllum]

No.

[cassa333]

Yes.

They want more government.

They want to dictate what you say and how you say it and how you think.

They want to redefine social norms to align with their ideology.

With the left your freedoms are being eroded and TBH most of the left are just useful idiots who don’t see who their puppeteers are.

[ichkeria]

What?

[10ClarionSt]

And what's "the prescribed view" then? I just love this website!

[jno]

well, let's see now, is the systematic abuse of anyone who disagrees with the prescribed view on Brexit a sign of the new fascism?

Could be, could be.

[Theland]

They are often , "triggered," by some bizarre idea that entails them shouting and shutting down debate, snowflakes the lot of them .

[10ClarionSt]

Brexit holds no interest for me whatsoever. I didn't vote, but I think Parliament is very funny now, sitting round on their elbows.

[highbury57]

Thank you for your sublime ignorance, Khandro. A joke(?) in appallingly bad taste.

[Theland]

The left see themselves as victims.
Minority groups being exploited by the rest of us.
Women, LBGTXYZ, disabled, traumatised, and whatever peripheral label you can think of.
The cure of course is taxpayers money for counselling, support groups, and community leader salaries.
Common sense gets shouted down.

[ichkeria]

Yes equating the tossing of milkshakes dumb as it is with the persecution of the Jews is appalling

[naomi24]

Khandro, //Kristallnacht 1938 = Miskshake-nacht 2019 ? //

The irrationality of that statement aside, you must know that it is, at the very least, in disgustingly poor taste. If, as a supposedly intelligent man, you don't know that, why don't you?

[ToraToraTora]

10CS - "And what's "the prescribed view" then?" - depends on the subject, tell me the subject and I'll give you the prescribed view.

Well the Nazis were a National 'Socialist' Party.

[ichkeria]

Surly that would have made the old fascists the even older communists :-)?
