A final response to the "Tell me why Trump is a fascist".

Here's another one: Trump call the Tienanmen Squire Protests in China a "riot", and says the Chinese govnerment "showed strength".

“The Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows you the power of strength. Our country is right now perceived as weak.”

I heard an interview with a Ivy League Professor who was speaking about fascism ... and came to the conclusion that the sole reason Trump isn't a full-fledged Fascist is simply because he does not yet have power.

Holy fucking shit. This is scary as fuck. Not just because of Trump, he will most likely lose the election, but the number of people who support this rhetoric and these policies is scary. These numbers, especially the opinion polls, should convince everyone that racist and fascist ideology have not gone anywhere; they are as real of a threat as they were during the first half of the 20th century. Trump will lose this one but we might see another Trump in 2020 or 2024.

The man gushes about dictators and their methods on the regular! Saddam, Kim Jong Un, etc. He seriously seems impressed by them. Like an idiot, he seems to be dazzled by their abilities to wield power with no regard for their methods as long as the ends justify the means. (see: his stance on torture) It's absolutely disgusting.

Great work, but I think this would be stronger if you removed the lines about individual Trump supporters such as the ex-cop, KKK member, and pipe bomber.

A critic will first attack the weakest argument in your position, and since you can't hold a candidate responsible for what self-avowed supporters do or say, the whole list becomes weaker. Of course a KKK member is going to vote for Trump. Does anyone think he'd vote third party for Jill Stein? And so would a wanna-be pipe bomber aiming at Muslims. Many Clinton supporters are terrible douchebags, too, including dozens (hundreds?) of rapists and murderers. Is that somehow important? No, it's just not meaningful. Nor is the pic of the KKK Grand Wizard meeting Hillary.

Now, Trump's refusal to condemn the violence of supporters is noteworthy, as are the actions of Trump allys, GOP supporters, and groups of supporters at his rallies. But random self-selected supporters? Not so much.

PraetorianFury · 6日前

OP, looks like you put a lot of work into collecting these sources and making your point. I hope you'll accept a little bit of advice. Liberal sources can be just as biased as conservative ones. You would strengthen your argument by avoiding such source as

think progress
daily wire
democracynow
new York daily news
crooksandliars

In general, if a source has "daily" in the name, it has the quality of a tabloid and is about as reliable. And among reliable sources, avoid opinion pages and blogs. The organization usually adds a disclaimer so they are not liable for anything said, hence there is little editorial oversight.

Trump has said a lot of crazy shit, so it's not hard to bust him with high quality sources like CNN or the NYT. They might not be on the top of the Google search results because sensationalist Facebook trash often gets more views, so you might need to dig a little, and perhaps search for a direct quote, rather than a clickbait headline. Hope that helps.

You've done an excellent job cataloguing everything, but I think that the truth of Trump's nascent fascism was nowhere more apparent than Day 1 of the Republican convention -- blatant lies about the amount of crime in the US (it's at historic lows); blatant lies about the preparedness of the US military (we are still the largest and best-equipped military in the world); blatant lies about the US foreign policy under Obama and with Secretary Clinton heading State (no one on the right mind could call either of them peaceful, and they were directly responsible for targeted killings of several high-ranking terrorist leaders, including Osama Bin Laden); and blatant lies about the "threats" the US faces on a global scale (we are safer today than we have been in decades; we have virtually no national enemies. Our biggest rivals find it more expedient to trade with us than to rattle sabers. We face an insurgency from terrorist groups, true, but that's been true literally every year of the most recent two centuries).

And yet, in order to facilitate their fascist designs, the Republicans trotted out scaremonger after scaremonger, seeking only to inflame fears, inflame xenophobia, inflame hatred, because they know fascism is buoyed up on such base emotions.

I was disheartened to see us goose-stepping toward Bethlehem tonight.

This doesn't even cover his convention speech, which was straight up the most fascist thing we've ever witnessed in this country.
