      Absolute state of the world that the view that people should defend their country is facism. I'm sure the allies didn't see themselves as fascist in WW2

        The allies didn't have a 'service guarantees citizenship' model, dipshit.

          You don't think the allies out people in jail for not helping with the war effort?

          Right tell me how every example of "you need to do something for your country to get citizenship" is fascism? Plenty have people have argued that you need to be educated to vote or to have land to vote or whatever. They are shit systems yes but they aren't fascism.

          You're just using an over used internet buzzword. It's going to lose all meaning eventually.
