    Why am I not surprised you'd conflate facism and social democrats. And nobody tried to criminalize the election result, just wanting to root out the criminals and fraudsters. So far there seem to be quite a few of them found.

    Simple bumpersticker explanations for simple minds is the key to Trumpian greatness

    Equality of outcome like in the justice system? Or perhaps college acceptances? And all thse old fascist regimes managed to find a way of providing wealth to their elites. Who do you think got all of that jewish wealth they stole?

    And in fact, capitalism PROMOTES monopolistic practices, or haven't you noticed?

    Are you saying that the executive is not properly executing the legislation enacted by the legislative branch?

    Projection appears to be difficult for people to avoid. Seeking to destroy or otherwise harm anyone who doesn't follow commands does not appear to be a challenge people outside of the New Democratic Party need to address.

    Tommy Douglas was not very insightful. He was burdened by a Marxian mindset in which reality is subjected to the Procrustean Bed of dialectical materialism.

    Do you know who the elite fears? Trump, Le Pen, the AfD, Orban, Bolsonaro. These are the politicans that keep the worthies of Davos up at night. And they get you to fear them, too. Sad.

    Obama was the closest thing to a fascist we have ever had. Wiretapping, spying, weaponizing Intel and the IRS..... These are straight out of the KGB and were tactics used by Nazi's.

    Now Obama seems to be trying to weaponize parts of the American public into believing ANTIFA is worthy organization and that they have a right to punch whoever they want, just call them a Nazi first, no matter what is true or not.

    I see where the problem lies and it's not with Trump.

    I am always fascinated by the motivations of master projectors when they project projection upon their opponents.

    Oh please. Tommy Douglas was a socialist. Back in the day it was about the working man and providing a decent standard of living for all Canadians. He wasn't a marxist.

    And does the elite fear the far right nationalist movements, who by mere coincidence are all white and a major friggin threat to democracy, let alone morality and decency? Yes as right thinking person should fear a serious existential threat to democracy and freedom.

    y

    And yet your quote says the elite fears democracy and wants to install fascism which is, by definition, a far right nationalist movement.

    Congratulations, you've undermined your own thread.

    Its lucky I’m not addicted to approval from the liberal herd you run around with

    That means I’m free to think for myself

    Which I do

    I'm always curious how those whose hypocrisy is pointed out to them try to double down and deflect the point rather than address it? Thanks

    Some liberal commentator here on PF opined that "racism is woven into the fabric of our society." He, naturally opposed racism. If racism is so woven, don't we need to rip apart the entire fabric of America?

    Isn't that the goal of the Left, to fundamentally transform the US?

    I know that trying to engage you in serious discussion is a feckless task. You can carry an argument about as well as I can carry a tune, i.e. not at all.

    Well, in my fascination I have come to learn that for the most part, such bald faced unabashed projectors of projection are intellectually lazy, suffer from severe dunning kruger syndrome, and are arrogantly unaware of transparent a tactic it is.

    I've noticed that in them as well, especially the intellectually lazy part. I see it more as intellectually vacant.

    Fascism only grew to oppose communism. Are the left telling us they are commies now? Is that why they fear fascism all the sudden?
