        Problem with repurposing what had been conventional GOP dogma as "fascism," like Katz does here: 1) dilutes meaning of term 2) sows hysteria

        Yeah, they'll be the first to call for some extra-legal measure to block Trump from assuming office.

        I wasn't presuming to invalidate your conclusion. I was pointing to your proclamation as an example of what I just wrote about.

        If you genuinely believe Trump to be a fascist, are you prepared to fight? Use violent tactics if necessary?

        Uh, I didn't subtweet you, and the fact that you assume I did is pretty vain. I just replied directly to you several times.

        "This is what I mean by pulling implications out of your ass." That sentence is not responsive to my question.

        You're the one who just blithely declared that a presidential candidate is fascist. So the burden is on you to prove that claim

        And that claim, if proven, would entail you to take certain acts to prevent the ascendance of fascism, of out moral duty.

        The aim of the post wasn't to disprove the validity of the fascism label.

        It was to suggest that using the term compels a certain set of acts, which proponents of the label don't seem to want to accept

        If you are willing to throw the "fascism" charge around, but unwilling to accept the implications, there's a discrepancy.

        No. Since you do apparently think that: what actions, if any, does holding said position morally compel you to take?

        Because I made a case using logic and reason for why those *would be* the implications. They are obviously not universal truths

        I'll ask again: what are your obligations in view of your contention that a fascist could soon take over the US government?

        The fact that you steadfastly refuse to answer this question is telling, and gives me confidence in the validity of my argument

        Again, if you don't answer the very straightforward question I posed, I consider this discussion to have reached a conclusion.

        Because I was expanding on a point made in the very same thread. I obviously replied to you repeatedly. Such a trivial hangup.
