Comment on Why do conservatives define being fascist solely as "being violent?"

Some of them do it because they dont want to admit to being fascists themselves…for now. Others genuinely do not care what the true meaning of the word is, and of them, many actively choose to refuse to learn. And some others still are just saying what the talking heads they trust tell them to say, regardless of what they know or knew before. In many ways, life is easier when you dont have to think.

Regardless of where they fall on this spectrum, reduction is a big part of the message, one way or another. Restricting how people understand this concept makes it easier to actualize it because vast swaths of these fools will be unable to recognize it for what it is until they find themselves in its very maw.

Are we all doomed? Cause it’s feeling more and more like we might all be doomed before long ngl
