    Most everyone on both sides agree that Nazis are fascists and the Nazis in Charlottesville were right wing extremists.

    Most every one on both sides agree that Antifa is of the left and they confronted the Nazis along with others on the left.

    So it is now clear, and no one can ever again credibly argue, that fascism is not a right wing phenomenon. We saw it. We witnessed the two sides fighting. We witnessed the right, even here on this forum, defending the Nazi white supremacists and opposing the leftist Antifa. And we saw leftists, even here on this forum, opposing the Nazi white supremacists and defending those who opposed them including Heather Heyer and Antifa.

    The lines have been drawn and it is all very clear now for everyone.

    Fascism can be a good thing.

    And only fascists agree with that. Fascism is a dominant, overwhelming evil. Kindness to kittens doesn't compensate for it.

    So you are one the side of Antifa violence and anti-free speech. Got it. Some of us are not on the side of any violence but do stand for American values like free speech.

    You talk as if it were a universally agreed upon value that fascism is bad. It's not.

    Indeed, what Charlottesville clarifies forever, is that the vast majority of the nation is too emotionally immature to be making decisions. In the words of the President: SAD.

    You saw marches and riots, you didn't see any govt. in action from the protesters, so it's hard to say if they be fascists..They do have dorky outfits, but that's just my opinion..

    That wouldn't be you. But me? Fascists have no rights in my playbook. We sent Americans to fight and die to eliminate that vermin once. We need to attack it and crush it early hereafter before it can fester and infect society again.

    Not hard at all when you see Nazi flags and symbols and slogans and salutes.

    Wrong.

    That statement ONLY applies to the Current IMBECILE-in-Chief (Trump).

    But, your statement does apply to Trump.

    Trump is "too emotionally immature to be making decisions".

    Well there you have it. The left feels that only certain people are allowed to have rights.

    Your remarks more closely align with Hitler than any thing Trump said.

    No. Only liberals/leftists think fascism is always wrong. Note: I am not saying fascism is always right. I am just saying it can sometimes be right.

    You should share that with your anti-Semitic buddy that gets his rocks off by posting anti-Semitic threads and then crawls back under his rock when he is called out. Fascism is never right for people with an intellect, integrity and pride. It is good enough for spineless jellyfish and the pathetically subservient but that's about it.
