    Yeah the person marching for the proto-fascist president surrounded by racists and bigots ready to overthrow the government and install a right wing dictatorship was a secret lefty

          A conservative. I don’t believe conservatism is fascism, although conservatives will ally with fascism when given the chance

            You've said multiple times that you think neoliberalism and fascism are pretty much the same thing but you don't think conservativism is fascist as well? Hard pressed to believe you aren't a wrecker.

                And conservatism isn't fascist how? Especially in a US context. Conservatism in the US is the most neoliberal ideology. If neoliberalism is fascist, as you've said at least twice, how is it that conservatism is different?

                  Because conservatism at the moment holds at least a color opposition to liberalism

                    Is that because you personally dislike liberalism more than anything on the right wing as you've stated before?

                    This is what you get when you take "Democrats are bad too" and contort it into "Democrats are actually worse than Republicans."

                    Not only does it make zero sense, but it actively stifles the growth of the left because anyone persuadable will look at that and think (correctly) that you don't have a clue.

            I'm not gonna care when the conservatives/fascists are fighting each other. If anything their infighting is a weakness that the left should exploit, not support one flavour of racism over the other.
