    “I resisted calling it fascism until it was too late and people were dying at the hands of monsters.”

    Get fucked. It was fascism when it was George Floyd and it’s fascism now. It’s been a fascism white people were willing to ignore because it didn’t impact them directly for fucking decades, if not a hundred years or more.

      I would say certain white people but they don’t consider me white so maybe that’s why I’ve been freaking out too.

      "[Fascism] the term has been overused to the point of meaninglessness, especially by left-leaning types who call you a fascist if you oppose abortion or affirmative action.

        Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

        Maybe he’s been in opposition of using the term because he’s fucking fascist-lite himself. Fascist with half the calories.

          Calling liberals fascists is literally overusing the term to the point of meaninglessness.

          Fascists are real and they’re here, and they hate liberals and liberals hate them too. Calling liberals fascists is not going to help the situation.

          And if you’re going around making liberals bleed because you disagree with them, then you might wanna look in a mirror because you might be a fascist.
