Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Small note
This is incorrect
You can have Fascism in any circle. “Communist” Occupied China is an example of non-white Fascism. And you could point to some military groups in Africa as well
I know. The part you quoted was in a separate paragraph because it was specifically about the American Fascist Party rather than fascists in general.
Other examples include Modi's fascist Hindunationalism and Netanyahu's fascist apartheid state where the favored religion is Judaism.
This is not how Apartheid works in the West Bank. Zionism may be dependant on Judaism, but that's not the dividing line.
It is ethnic apartheid between ethnic Jews / white westerners and Arabs. Religion has little to do with what is actually enforced. there are tons of secular Jews. There are evangelical Christian settlements in the West Bank too.
It's about denying rights to Arabs living in Palestine.
?
It wasn’t separate from this
What are you doing right now?
Do you really need me to quote their whole paragraph to show that they’re in the same paragraph?
Incorrect. Fascism is specifically a white right wing phenomenon.
You can have similar methods in other authoritarian and totalitarian systems. But while they're certainly equally despicable, that does not make them fascism.
This was the least educated comment you’ve made today
I highly suggest looking into a political literacy class
I assume you've gone through my comment history to confidently make that assertion?
Scan the Wikipedia page on fascism. Read a bit more into the citations. Then tell me again how uneducated my comment really was.
Why would I go through your comment history to make an assertion of one comment that I was replying to?
If you don't know any of my other comments, how can you confidently state that this was 'the least educated comment' I made that day?
Because i respect you
