Out of how many in a country of hundreds of millions, exactly?

One of any crime is too many, but "dozens" in of a country of hundreds of millions is not a reason for panic.

Yep. It's like claiming that you aren't going to use computers in the making of movies. It's just ridiculous posturing.

It's almost as if the therapeutic state won't always be enforcing your philosophies of what is healthy ...

I admire the Left's newfound opposition to pointless regulations, lol

... if they chart?

Gee, how could Iran find allies in Minnesota, lol

I mean, people totally won't use this to report stuff that they simply disagree with.

Oh ... so eBay didn't harass them, some eBay employees did.

I had dropped in to mention that, about the misleading headline.

I mean if you can get a degree in "gender studies" or whatever, then why not?

This isn't any less real than all that.

And in that "nazi", right-wing, authoritarian enclave of ... (blinks) ... Canada?

And ... you think that's okay? That police show up at your door because someone claimed that you insulted them online?

Sort of a modern re-phrasing of "He who fights with monsters should be careful lest he thereby become a monster. And if thou gaze long into an abyss, the abyss will also gaze into thee"

A Godwin thread, how fun! I'll play.

I thought I'd take a look at wiki to refresh my terms, which sayeth, "Fascism is characterized by support for a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.[3][4]"

Good enough atm. So, on to the Gedankenspiel...

support for a dictatorial leader: I got gigged in basic for not saluting the general's *empty* car. You can bet I supported dear leader's conveyances and anyone decorated with pretty bits of metal on their collar tabs for the next four. Dictatorial? No. They have limits. Authoritarian, yes.
centralized autocracy: Centralized, yes. Autocracy, no.
militarism: Well...
forcible suppression of opposition: Hmmm. Does fragging count?
belief in a natural social hierarchy: Hierarchy, yes. Natural? For some, yes, for most, it takes months or years to gain steps up the ladder.
subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race: For most I'd say nation for sure. Some might secretly have racial overtones, but nothing like most homogenous nations where the race *is* the nation.
and strong regimentation of society: Yes. Two or more battalions are actually called a "regiment".
and the economy: See Pres. Eisenhower and MIC.

And, ofc, the caveat: "What constitutes a precise definition of fascism has been a longrunning and complex debate among scholars." So, yeah, there's lots of ways to slice and dice.

"Additionally, the intrusion of ICE agents into a polling place on Election Day should raise serious red flags amid concerns that Trump could use federal law enforcement to intimidate voters in future elections."

I expect NG deployed in all major blue cities. Maybe a few red cities to make sure the locals don't get uppity. I've seen a few headlines about the "strategic" plans that the blues have to deal with what's coming up in this and '28s elections, but I have little faith in blue's ability to execute strategery atm.
