Absolute bullseye. Well said Matt
-
Matthew accuses others of that which he is guilty. The reality is that there are people who bandy the word fascism around too freely and there are those who deny that some rightwing politicians are straying precariously close to the tactics that have led to fascism in the past.

Oppose fascism wherever it raises its head. We noticed our four binmen all wear blue boiler suits and high viz. Classic fash. Also that they're all white men. We demand 1 Asian, 1 black, 1 EU migrant, and that 2 of them be women. Until then, we're keeping our rubbish! Solidarity!

Never seen this woman until about 3 weeks ago and she’s everywhere now. I just switch tv over. She doesn’t let anyone else speak, constantly butting in. The best interview was when her ear piece dropped out and she couldn’t hear the questions.

Paul mason uses it a lot. Trouble is 99% of people who bash that word around haven’t a fucking clue what it actually means.

When considering the definition of the word fascist. Isn’t anyone that didn’t protest China’s (dictatorship) visit but protests the US’ ( democratically voted) visit a fascist?

No-one is calling everyone fascists. It is however accurate to describe an extreme mysoginist who supports white supremacism and the erosion of women's rights as Fascist.

So what do you call a far left misogynist then?
