    I'll confess to being very confused. What is it, specifically, that Trump has done to be considered a fascist by Antifa? What drives these people to claim his administration is a "regime"?

    Does anyone here know, or is it all "Well, I FEEL like he has a fascist regime"?

    I am honestly perplexed by all of these claims.

    Antifa (and the left in general) have long abandoned reason, evidence, logic and debate. They simply call you something "bad" and that is supposed to "win" the argument and shut you up.
    The word Fascism has now no meaning except in so far as it signifies "something not desirable". The words democracy, socialism, freedom, patriotic, realistic, justice have each of them several different meanings which cannot be reconciled with one another. In the case of a word like democracy, not only is there no agreed definition, but the attempt to make one is resisted from all sides. It is almost universally felt that when we call a country democratic we are praising it: consequently the defenders of every kind of regime claim that it is a democracy, and fear that they might have to stop using that word if it were tied down to any one meaning. Words of this kind are often used in a consciously dishonest way. That is, the person who uses them has his own private definition, but allows his hearer to think he means something quite different.
    ― George Orwell

    Since these people feel and not think, its easy for them to get worked up.


    I guess the simplest way to look at this is, its all one big ad hominem that has got out of control.

    Modern liberalism is based on the idea that reality is obligated to conform to one's beliefs because; "I have the right to believe whatever I want".
