they are just scared that they have zero ability to form counter arguments

@nolsen that is probably how i would turn it around on them; censorship of political speech is a shield used only by those unable to defend their ideas

AP party has a white chick with problem glasses!

im dying

@nolsen plus, fascism is unironically less worse than communism so there's that, too

I'd argue that in fascists nations, you cannot use free speech

you would get arrested

or sent to the FUCKING HOLOCAUST

that's actually true of most kinds of governments

So their "free speech" to call other fascists

permitting free speech is a rarity if you look at all the countries ever

would not be allowed

free speech is a traditionally liberal value

pretty much no other country on any other ideological basis has ever permitted free speech

unless it was a benevolent monarch or something

fascism isn't worse than communism

they're the same

fascism is like "Eat food, but work all day without breaks."

communism be like "Don't eat food, eat tank instead."

fascism: "Why aren't you working? Are you a degenerate? Do you not care about the nation?"

communism: "You should be working, but only when govt is watching."

communism: lol I already starved

fascism: "Oh god, I was drafted to fight in a war I didn't want to be in."

"But at least the food is okay."

fighting in wars wasn't super uncommon before nukes made conventional warfare suicidal

yeah, but fascists tend to advocate aggressive foreign policy to put it lightly

the nazis were probably the most principled fascists

because they really adhered to the social darwinism

just declare war on everyone basically

lol

annex everything, war is human nature, so be the first to declare it, REEE

also, fascism tends to pursue total war, which is something wholly different from most wars throughout history

unless it's the mongols

because mongols killed everyone anyway

so

yeah

though mongols did allow people to survive if they surrendered, whereas with the nazis... not always, to say the least

so nazis are slightly worse than mongols, from a certain point of view

really diving deep on that one

they didn't kill everyone tho
