Democrat = Liberal = Socialist = Communist = Fascist = Nazi. Therefore all Democrats are literally Nazi Fascists
/s
No, but the uni-party that's in power in the U.S. is quite fascist. That has nothing to do with leftism, and I never implied it does. Apparently you missed in my original comment where I made it clear that Biden isn't the only fascist being promoted ("either").
Oh, I was replying @DesertRose and I only saw your comment immediately before it. I'm not a 'both sides' kinda person but they are both quite guilty - Republicans do seem to be more mask-off tho.
That being said, I don't disagree with your response to @DesertRose.
My comment was more tongue-in-cheek and not meant to be taken too seriously, thus the "/s"
Fair enough. It sounded like you were attempting to characterize my comment, and that the "/s" was meant to show that you, yourself, didn't agree with that characterization. Thanks for clarifying.
Fwiw I generally don't think Biden is a Fascist per se. I think he is a corporatist and a neolib which can quickly lead to fascism. We need a different voting system besides first past to post so we can get some of these ghouls out of office.
"'If they didn't vote for a lizard', said Ford, 'the wrong lizard might get in.'" - Douglas Adams, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Those are not mutually exclusive. Biden very much subscribes to fascist politics, and has for his entire political career.
