Comment on Stew Peters Advocates for a Violent Overthrow of the Government

Tankies are terrible, but nowhere near as big of a problem. This isn’t a both sides issue.

Fascism as a term is vague and isn’t limited to any one thing anymore, no one is talking about 1930s/1940s Italy anymore.

Then allow me to define it for you.

Call it neo-fascism if you like, it’s the same shit just in modern times.
And yet the same ideology persists.

I was talking more of “They don’t want transwomen on the womens fishing team? Clearly fascist!” But even that brittanica article can’t seem to come up with one good definition beyond “populist tyranny” which I guess works. And tankies definitely fall under that.

That’s its own different kind of bigotry, unrelated to the issue.
And this is whataboutism.
