"Cultural Appropriation"

[The Grand Nudger]

That is neither new, facism, or of the left.  Nor is it what Benny pointed to -as- the new facism of the left...which is what -I- contend doesn't exist.

The aggressiveness of it certainly feels new. Yes, it is fascism or at least attempts at fascism. Neither side has been successful at actually being fascist.

I'm not sure how pointing to one individual is even discussing what the "sides" are doing.  

Nope. I don't have to have an opinion for every nuance of the discussion. I was responding to one aspect of your conversation, about which Benny's statement makes some sense. Don't mistake that for agreeing with Benny or disagreeing with you on the topic. I'm simply pointing out that the far left is indistinguishable from the far right in many aspects. If right wingers are fascist, so are far left wingers.

Sure.  You can find a facist at the far end of either side-ish. This was not Bennys statement, this is -your- statement. Bennys statements were regarding all that "nuance". Sure, your statement makes sense, in the main part..that there are crazies at both ends - though fascism explicitly denotes a far right bent. The far authoritarian left...are socialists, lol.


His statements...however, don't.

It's always been indicative of individuals on each side of the spectrum trying to push for their distinctly fascist agendas. Of course, these are the crazy outliers, but let's call it like it is.

You did just call it like it is.  Crazy outliers.  I forgive both sides for their crazy outliers (lol).  Crazy is gonna crazy cuz crazy.  I concern myself not with crazies...but with sane fascists.  With facism in the mainstream, not on the edge of the wilderness.  With fascism in the statehouse, not the shithouse. I don't concern myself at all with socialism, with the authoritarian left..because that has a snowballs chance in hell in america. Even the socialists won't vote for it.

Where you have to point is irrelevant. Far left, far right–they're all fucking looney tunes.

Yes, individual looneytoons are all looneytunes...but the phrase "new facism of the left" seems to promise more than a few looney toons - to promise more than people calling bigots bigots.  Meanwhile, the same old familiar fascism delivers at the statehouse.
