Well, you're getting a little complimacated for the American electorate. Next thing we know you're gonna ask us to hit the dictionary!
"Weird" or "creepy" is about the IQ level verbiage suitable here. "Fascism" is one of them there foreign words.
It it would be a case of stupidity then it would be solvable but I'm afraid it's wilful malevolence at play - wanting to make life of others (especially those who are already struggling) worse is pure malice and this is what republican voters want and applaud. To spite "libruls" they're willing to make even their own life worse.
That said I'm sure that certain segment of populace is simply dumb, just like in any other country.

Fascist is far better one.
It is, but it doesn't get under their skin like "weirdo" does.

It's kinda strange but I guess weirdos must have different sensibilities.

Never I've seen people more easily offended than right wingers. It's hilarious that they dare to call anyone snowflake considering their own fragility.

"Snowflake is a derogatory slang term for someone who is overly emotional, easily offended, and unable to cope with opposing opinions. It can also imply that someone has an inflated sense of uniqueness or an unwarranted sense of entitlement."
I can't be the only one who thinks that seems to accurately describe Trump?

Edit:
Oops, wrong thread 😬
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
