The liberal march towards EXTREME fascism

John Cleese cancels event at university over 'woke rules,' says he is 'blacklisting' himself for his Hitler impersonation

John Cleese, one of the stars of legendary British comedic troupe Monty Python, is no stranger to making crude, insensitive, politically incorrect comments and jokes. He has made a career of it. But that's a problem in today's woke world. So when Cleese heard about an art historian being...

The fascist believes that creating the "unrest" through violence, arson, looting, etc. is totally cool. But anything to help mitigate it - well those people "should avoid" it.

If Rittenhouse is convicted, he will likely stop being a right-wing mascot and become a right-wing martyr. If he isn’t convicted, he will set a precedent for others like him to pick up guns they shouldn’t have and thrust themselves into the middle of unrest they should avoid — confident in knowing that prison won’t be in their future.

What's wrong with America is the left's belief that they should be able to burn, kill, and maim, while conservatives should be imprisoned. Remember, this shit went down during COVID - when the left was pretending that the entire nation should be in lockdown (to destroy the economy because they knew Trump was unbeatable)

George Soros is seriously one of the most evil mother-fuckers to ever walk the planet. How Americans aren’t universally lined up AGAINST this guy just blows my mind and really goes to illustrate the extremism/fascism embraced by the modern-day left.

I’ve been saying it for more than a decade now - the left has embraced fascism in its purest form. They will not tolerate anything short of complete and total adherence to their fucked up ideology and they will achieve that through violence.

The Democrat Party began weaponizing government under Barack Obama. It’s disturbing as hell and further evidence that the left has embraced fascism in its purest form.

Not to get too deep into "ism" dissection, but I notice that you keep using the word 'fascism' when you are really talking about authoritarianism, which is a much wider term.

Which is fine, by the way. Ranting against authoritarians is totally OK in a liberal democracy such as ours. It's fun sometimes, too.

Just be warned—fascism is a specific type of authoritarianism, with its own characteristics that make it uniquely dangerous to our way of life, and when you dilute the term like that, you chip away at the ability to talk about actual fascism specifically. Not having a word for it any more makes it tougher to oppose, and therefore easier for it to chew away at the corners of our liberal democracy.

I know it's a bit word-police-y, but definitions are important, especially these days. Just as a piece of helpful advice.

I think you're spot-on and that was a great post. Just one thing though. I don't see an ounce of difference between fascism and authoritarianism.

Just as there is absolutely nothing “democratic” about the “Democratic People's Republic of Korea”, there is absolutely nothing “liberal” about modern day “liberals”. Hijacking the name was just a propaganda tactic by true fascists.

Where am I wrong on that? What am I missing?

Authoritarianism is in essence the opposite of democracy; it means the power to make change within that society lies in the hands of a single person or entity. If forcefully suppresses challenges to the ruling party regardless of legality, won't share power with anyone, and generally doesn't care about your human rights as much as it cares about keeping those in power, in power. Communism, with its promises of total equality to poor people, but really just being about keeping the junta in power, is a type of authoritarianism from the far left.

Fascism, on the other hand, is a type of authoritarianism from the far right. It is based on extreme nationalism—beyond just believing that their nation is great, but believing that it is *the best* at the expense of all others, and therefore deserves to have the things the "others" have. It tells a pretty specific message: that their once-great nation has fallen due to failed liberal policies, corruption, and alien influencers, and that only their leader (there is always a strong leader) can restore the nation to its former glory.

Fascism then plays to the emotions of those "true" members of the nation who feel powerless, scared, frustrated, or pissed off at recent events to mobilize and unite and invest power in this one big leader, even when it conflicts with the nation's laws or principles. It then uses intimidation or violence to force loyalty (there's the authoritarian streak) from established politicians, businesses, the military, and so on, to bring about its authoritarianism. It's always the same, and traditionally it is THE way that large democracies come to an end.

One interesting thing about fascism is that it adapts itself to each society. That's why Mussolini's Fascists (capital 'F' means them specifically) focused on militarism, the Nazis (simply the German version of fascism) had the persecution of Jews at its heart, and in modern days Erdogan's Turkey and Orban's Hungary (each of whom both have strong fascist elements) focus respectively on Muslim purity and ethno-nationalist identity even more than usual. In the US, it appeals strongly to flag-waving patriotism and Christian nationalism.

This is longer than I had hoped, but there's your summary of it all. Fascism is a type of authoritarianism, but it has its own playbook that we need to be able to talk about, because it is otherwise a *huge* threat to the health and even survival of our country.

Fascism, on the other hand, is a type of authoritarianism from the far right.

Ehhhh. Wrong. Fascism is not “far right”. The further right you go on the political spectrum, government gets smaller and less powerful until it ceases to exist at all (anarchism). That’s just plain common sense. You literally cannot have right-wing authoritarianism. It’s impossible by the very nature of the right-wing ideology

But don’t take my word for it. Ask Friedrich Hayek (who held PhD’s in Economics, Law, and Political Science) who lived through the hell of the 1940’s. He writes in “The Road to Serfdom” that fascism and communism are two sides of the exact same coin (ie authoritarianism).

Democrats have embraced fascism in its purest form. Illegal surveillance and - ultimately - the elimination of anyone who refuses to embrace their disturbing ideology. We are repeating all of the mistakes of Nazi Germany by not prosecuting these maniacs for their crimes.

Ah, okay; now I see where you get your perspective. Yes, I know Hayek. He was what we would today call a free-market libertarian who was all about opposing socialism. He wrote “The Road to Serfdom” during World War II in order to demonize socialism by equating it with the much-hated fascism, attempting to redefine the political spectrum in the process in order to fit his own ideas. When you add in his insistence that the free market is responsible for everything good in the world, and that any type of socialism inevitably leads to tyranny (which it has not and does not), it is easy to see why that book was widely criticized then, as it is now, and certainly does not represent the consensus.

But bear in mind that that is a dispute about terminology. Regardless of what we label the right or the left, my earlier point still holds: Fascism is its own thing, and by slapping its label on ALL authoritarianism, you strangle the chance to talk about *actual* fascism, which only serves to give it oxygen.

Well Hayek aside, the further right you go, government gets smaller and less powerful until it ceases to exist at all. Fascism is absolutely left-wing.

The #1 example given of fascism is the Nazis. Well, Nazi is short for National SOCIALIST.

Thankfully the low-IQ left is too dumb to be as effective as they should be.

From taxpayer-funded abortions on demand to defunding the police, from their $3.5 trillion social engineering boondoggle to indoctrinating our children with critical race theory, the Democrats—like the North Vietnamese in 1968—tried to move into phase three too soon. They struck before enough people have been indoctrinated.
