Yep, I think you've shifted from "this is a fact in the dictionary" to "this is my belief" very neatly. Much harder to debate that way! Good job.

I don't actually want to protest the Nazis in-person, because, you see, I want to live. But taking down their signs and doing other indirect protest is fascist, right? It's only non-fascist if I show up to get shot.

THat's not what I asked! I know perfectly well what the laws are. I'm asking if you think it's fascist to stop them.

The questions of "is the USA fascist" and "does our constitution enable fascists" are totally different areas. Don't hide behind the law when you don't want to say your opinion.

... buddy...

do you really think nazis should get to march in the streets because silencing them would be fascist?

I didn't ask you to edit it back in. I asked you why you took it out. It's no small distinction!

There is a huge difference between "no opposition is allowed" and "some opposition is not allowed". It is the difference, in fact, between fascism and "no fascists in our democracy."

Maybe next time consider the words you use.

That's what a lot of people would think!

I bolded two words there. You wiped one away. Why is that?

You don't remember how people talked about Trump in spring of 2016 at all, huh?

So you didn't even try to look at a dictionary! I'm really disappointed. Here, I did it for you:

>an extreme right-wing
political system or attitude that is in favour of strong central
government, aggressively promoting your own country or race above
others, and that does not allow any opposition

Can you explain to me how "removing illegal litter that says to vote for fascists" is "not allowing any opposition"?

> Madden insisted that the scheme is legal. Asked who told him it is legal, he said, “It's just, I read the FEC rules.”

the arrogance

As in, send into combat, back to DC.

It's a gray area. The real question is, will your local cops see you, and will they care?

Are they? Or do they just have an address here to ski from?

Goalpost move there.

The fascist playbook has a lot of tactics, including "convince people who agree with us to vote." Does that mean asking people to vote is "pure fascism"?

Again: please be careful with your words. We have a lot of actual fascism going around right now. This ain't it. Do you need me to copy-paste the definition for you, or can you review on your own?

It's against the law for them to be on public property. Is it ALSO against the law to take them out of their illegal places? Eh, iffy. That's the sort of question that gets thrown out of court.

Honestly same. I thought ignoring him would do a lot fucking more than it did.

They're already illegal where they are, but we don't have the state manpower to enforce.

Theft is not fascism, please consult a dictionary

I promise thievery is not the same thing as armed insurrection

Agency of Transportation (I assume.) So state job.

High-minded liberals have been saying this about Republican fascists for 22 years. Three stolen presidential elections later, I can assure you, it is not working.

Nope. Q.
