Comment on Lemmy's gaining popularity, so I thought new people should see this.

That’s why the most violently MAGA are small business owners and the like, and why they think immigrants are the ones proletarianizing them.
I highly recommend reading the first chapter of Blackshirts and Reds by Dr. Michael Parenti, which covers the material conditions surrounding fascism and who it served.

Fascism has been described as a teacher telling a student to shut up in class too, just because someone says something doesn’t make it true.

Sure, so can you explain what you disagree with about what I have said, and why you believe fascism to not be left nor right? I am aware of “Third Positionists,” they serve Capitalists and arise from Capitalist decay.

It’s going to be useless to explain it to you, you’ve already made up your mind, and since I’m no longer shitting and have things to do today I’m going to have to decline your request to waste my time explaining natsocs.

What gives you the right to call me a Nazi for saying “fascism is right-wing?” That’s incredibly rude, entirely uncalled for, and utterly unfounded in reality.
