    It took me a second to figure out why you called Biden a fascist but I came to the realization it’s because that Biden wanted to relieve student debt which is considered a socialist policy and that for is considered an extension of fascism. But that’s not the problem that most people have with fascism coupled with the fact one can be a socialist without being actually fascist. The aspect everybody is more concerned about is the totalitarian side that tends to be with a true fascist. The water is easily muddied by terms.

      I believe if you reread the comment he’s actually saying that Trump is the fascist. That might be why it took you a second to figure out what he was saying

        Yeah I got busy today just reread it and misunderstood it. I thought that the original commenter was saying that Trump and Biden were both fascists. I was a little upset with that comment because Fox and other medias were pushing that Biden was a fascist because socialism is the most important aspect of fascism. Which I do not agree with.

      Fascism is a political ideology, not an economic structure. I also don’t know how you could miss read a comment that badly, maybe you did maybe you didn’t. Either way your comment is just really poorly thought out and written. Please try and contribute something more useful to the conversation. It was nice to not worry about people trying to stir shit up like they do on reddit, however briefly it lasted.
