since youre too stupid
I guarantee you I'm smarter and more informed than you, and its not close.
You desperately need to pretend any critic of the left is a buffoon or your worldview comes crashing down.

fascism is far-right authoritarianism combined with nationalism, and fascists are generally opposed to anarchism, democracy, pluralism, liberalism, socialism and Marxism
You are starting from the position that it is far-right and saying its far right.
My position is that it has far more in common with mainstream left authoritarianism than limited government advocates.

not necessarily - Fascist economics supported a state-controlled economy that accepted a mix of private and public ownership over the means of production. Economic planning was applied to both the public and private sector and the prosperity of private enterprise depended on its acceptance of synchronizing itself with the economic goals of the state. Fascist economic ideology supported the profit motive, but emphasized that industries must uphold the national interest as superior to private profit.
fascism incorporates elements of both capitalism and socialism. Fascist economists advocate for self-sufficiency and individual profit, but promote government subsidies of corporations
'Not necessarily' ..and you go on to regurgitate a definition describing that yes in fact it is authoritarian government control of the economy and a merger between corporation/economy and state as I said.
None of this is news to me.

this is where you are dead wrong, the modern day GOP is far more fascist than any political 'left' in the USA, its not even comparable . Trump wanted to be a dictator so bad and all his hog muppets loved him for it. theres a reason so many greasy people like you love to lick his boots
thanks for coming to my TED talk
No, this is where YOU are clearly and inarguably wrong.
The democrat platform is bigger government and more government control across the board.
What is their vision for taxes? Government spending? What is the green new deal? how do they feel about economic freedom and free markets?
To honestly answer these questions is to concede the point.
You can't defend the point on facts so you go on a TDS rant.
This is not to say that the GOP is good or completely different, but to deny that democrats are authoritarian is definitively wrong.
Going on an ego trip and calling me stupid for stating the truth when you were wrong is a flaw in your character.
