I suppose we will find out? I have to say the amount of disinformation is what gets people in such a head spin. I have been trying to get inside the minds of all the q people and I find it absolutely fascinating, I have been trying to gather info on how they gained so much traction and it’s crazy how many rabbit holes there are. Might have to go back to school and get a physiology degree.
Well... I totally agree with you there... And my new favorite quote is Voltaire's
"Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
They got all these people being the absurd idea that thee was some giant conspiracy with a novel virus that spread across the world as a con to do mail in voting and the like and steal the election.
And then those same people that bought that con just raided the fucking Capitol Building. So, Voltaire was right

@boudica, you just advanced to level 2!
Idaho would be the craziest looking state if this goes through 😄
I think Eastern Washington should be included
Idaho is still anti pot though. Not sure how they will work that out.
Face book permanently removed them
Permanently?
Thats what it says under latest news
The left is so fascistic. I mean, they are actual fascists.
This isn’t hyperbole.
Not really, unless you use the term 'fascism' extremely loosely when you actually mean authoritarian.
They just laugh at you if you call them fascists because you're using the academic term incorrectly.
And it feeds into their narrative.
I’m using it with regards to their fierce attacks on opposing views
That's not the academic definition of fascism.
So again, they'll just laugh at you.
The academic term itself is flawed because they consider it “far-right”. It’s alt-left.
Call them authoritarian, and they'll have to crunch their teeth.
It really isn't alt-left. It's derived of a form of nationalism, on top of authoritarianism and dictatorial regimes.
They also don’t use the term appropriately. They are closer to textbook fascists than anyone else.
Not at all. I'd like to see some sourcing here.
But that has more in common with the traditional left than with the right.
Except the left is anything but nationalist.
If you live in those counties. Vote yes. Idaho supports 2nd amendment.
The nationalist part is EXTREMELY important in the definition.
Oh? Was Soviet Russia not left?
@DangerousFreedom, you just advanced to level 16!
Soviet Russia was the opposite of nationalist.
How so? The “Party” was fused with the State, and they were quite proud of both.
... are you really trying to tell me that the USSR was actually nazbols? Are you actually joking?
They were similar.
You see, I am of the opinion that “authoritarianism” is more of a defining factor for a “side” (left/right) than whether they were proud of their nation.
Authoritarianism is the general sense of the word you're literally looking for.
Fascism is literally derived of the movement of Italy, and then conversely Germany and Japan.
It's very specific.
Yes, but fascism and socialism/communism have that in common, therefore they should be on the same side.
And it remains specific in academics.
