Shutting down free speech with violence is not fighting fascism. It IS fascism!

    Oh, that overly simplified joke where it's impossible to be placed into one of the quadarants? Yeah sure.

    Fascism lets speech be free, provided you don't attempt to undermine the people, the morals, the values, the policies, etc. that define the nation.

    In other words, Fascism is free speech, absent the communist subversion. What do you want? Freedom or communism?

    provided you don't attempt to undermine

    Subjective call made but assholes of the ruling class. Fuck that.

    Sometimes things need to be undermined. Fuck consumer culture. Fuck authoritarianism. Fuck over-regulation.

    Freedom is freedom, including the freedom to reject the status quo.

    IFIFY:
    Shutting down free speech in any way is not fighting fascism or communism. It IS totalitarianism!
