I have no tolerance for American fascism. None. You can characterize it however you like. I will not stop calling out American fascists. My line drawn.

Teachers are corrupting minds? You are lost. Fuck American fascist pigs.

You are the swamp that America needs to drain. The drainage system is called education. Until that drain is unclogged, we pinch our noses at your wretched stinkiness.

Hey everyone, here’s an idiot who supports trump. Let him know what you think! But be careful, Mark Twain warns about these kinds of interactions.

Wow! Some of these people really suck at critical thinking.

I can’t say I’ve ever heard it used legitimately with regards to the US government in my lifetime, and I’m getting old. But yeah, EVERYONE seems to be saying it for the past couple of months. Why are you baffled? If you’ve studied the subject, the term seems a little too apt for what’s going on. I suppose you don’t…

Your concern for paying the proper respect to the lessons of history while the US slips into fascism is baffling.

Not positive I understand what you are saying here. I’ll assume you mean fighting communism and fascism were slippery slopes. Those were state conflicts. States are clearly defined actors. Terrorism is not.

I said useless, not complex. Fighting an international and domestic war against a term has too many slippery slopes, many of which the American foreign policy and civil society are barreling down today.

“Terrorism”. What a useless broad sweeping term. How can foreign policy be constructed from such an ill-defined enemy.

For LA Wildfires, wouldn’t it be kinda weird to name a team after a real disaster of an area? For example, I would avoid the Hiroshima Atomics.

Number 2 refers to hyper-nationalism, the slippery slope result of nationalism.

I don’t believe the absence of nationalism equates totalitarianism or vice versa. Your next reading assignment will be Aristotle’s Politics.

What is this garbage? What are you talking about? Go away, no one likes you.

Because of the history of fascism and war. I believe people dying from violence is a bad thing.

Trying to discuss IR with you is like playing a chess game where you have the opponent in checkmate in a couple of moves, but the opponent proclaims “Connect 4!”. You just completely miss the boat.

I call them terrorists and extremists. The terms apply to them better than the bastardized meanings they’ve appropriated the terms for.

For sure I would be terribly upset about that if she was elected. But she wasn’t so it doesn’t matter. The time now is to focus on the significantly more erosive  corruption that was elected.

You’ve rejected your judiciary, the standing of your current president elect, your constitution, your bureaucracy, and your accredited news media. You’ve rationalized abandoning the tenets of your republic for your future government based on perceived injustice from your previous government, (which is an obvious gap…

I worry about possible fallacies from branding and grouping dangerous social movement(s) as Americans have done with “terrorism”, because how can you defeat an enemy you don’t understand.
