an alt right neo nazi according to twitter

2020-12-01 05:06:50 UTC  

I don’t even agree with populist economic policies, but I feel that they should have a voice and be represented

2020-12-01 05:06:51 UTC  

even though my policy views havent changed at all

> I don’t think he was equipped to take on the challenge that he did. But he took it on, and that’s enough to inspire awe and enjoy the fireworks
@AdvanceManExtraordinaire Yeah I don't look at it as an endeavor to display triumph over personal challenge.

2020-12-01 05:07:45 UTC  

It's the presidency. Not about him.

2020-12-01 05:08:04 UTC  

That's funny I am the same.. what was even crazier is that I found out from other people

2020-12-01 05:08:19 UTC  

No one man is bigger than the Presidency of the United States.

2020-12-01 05:08:31 UTC  

Yes!

Twitter [big tech] has bred fascism marketed as wokeness. Combating neo fascism will be the challenge of this decade.

2020-12-01 05:09:09 UTC

2020-12-01 05:09:21 UTC

2020-12-01 05:09:49 UTC

2020-12-01 05:09:50 UTC

2020-12-01 05:10:15 UTC  

words usually mean what people mean them to mean

2020-12-01 05:10:26 UTC  

but we have a word

2020-12-01 05:10:28 UTC  

thats more accurate

2020-12-01 05:10:30 UTC  

authoritarian

2020-12-01 05:10:34 UTC  

so if someone is using the word fascist, they usually mean something specific

2020-12-01 05:10:42 UTC  

authoritarian doesn't mark all the traits of fascism

2020-12-01 05:10:56 UTC  

yes but people just use 'fascism' as any power structure i dont like

2020-12-01 05:11:12 UTC  

'Authoritarian' is a great word to use when talking about authoritarianism.

2020-12-01 05:11:19 UTC

@ImNotGas Well, people use 'communism' in exactly that way, as well.

2020-12-01 05:12:24 UTC

2020-12-01 05:12:30 UTC  

people just confuse socialism and communism

2020-12-01 05:12:36 UTC  

Oh, they sure as hell do.

2020-12-01 05:12:40 UTC  

I'm happy to not be a Russian Bot lately.

2020-12-01 05:12:50 UTC  

Twitter has been on fire today. Hilarious

2020-12-01 05:13:07 UTC  

And they *also* conflate it with socialism.

2020-12-01 05:13:20 UTC

eh lefty people dont go accusing right wing people of being communists

2020-12-01 05:14:10 UTC  

but righty people do the lame "SEE THEY ARE THE REAL FASCISTS"

2020-12-01 05:14:26 UTC  

fascism includes a certain kind of economic policy (picking favorite/loyal corps, destroying the rest), and a kind of populism (support me and I'll give you what you want! all the other politicians are establishment and only paying lip service! I'll take money from one group and give it to another!), a kind of traditionalism (we will return the glorious past!), a scapegoat (these guys are responsible for our troubles!), making everyone take sides (are you a patriot? or not?), over-glorification of the military into everyday life (large parades, banners; socially punishing anyone who criticizes the military), and loyalty to the leader (socially punishing those who disagree with him) among other characteristics. So when people see some of this stuff, they call it "fascist". I agree that it gets abused a lot, but you are also oversimplifying how language is used.
