    as for "what else"- how about this?

    Since when do you get to share an anecdote, and then shift the burden of proof or in this case disproof, onto another person? Convenient argumentative technique, too bad a retard like me can't make sense of it.

      Wait, so since you had nothing about the story you brought up, you bring up a different story? You've heard the term "moving the goalposts," yes?

      And this time you not only forego using a local source, AGAIN, you didn't even use one based in this country!


      And that COMPLETELY IGNORES your last defense of your position is "Oh you only believe the media when it fits your narrative" and then turn around and DO THE EXACT SAME THING!


      Social interaction difficulties, communication challenges, repetitive behavior...........I think you should speak to your PCP. They have effective treatments these days.

        ...he specifically asked for "what else". as in, "give me another example". it's moving the goalposts to say "ok, here you go"?

          This is antifa, right?

          Angry mob using forcible oppression and scare tactics attempting to strong-arm a democratically elected senator..

          That's like the definition of fascism.

          How do people in this organization not understand this?

          Probably because they're paid to do this type of thing, which would constitute a criminal conspiracy. RICO?

              Should thank them for their service.

                If they just called themselves, "Fascists for America" or something it wouldn't be nearly as intriguing but the irony elevates it to a heretofore unseen level of idiocy.

                  I'm not sure if go that far. It's deplorable yes, and the restaurant should have just called the cops to evict the protestors. But what they did was hardly brown-shirt or Gestapo tactics.

                  Once again... This is the political atmosphere the two parties have fostered. Would you call the Trump rally attendees fascists? Our elected officials are going to have to get used to this sort of thing. Attack ads, super Pacs, scandals, lack of decorum and process, etc are contributing to this. It's a case of reap what sow on both sides of the aisle.

                    Are you equating attending a political rally with organizing a mob to confront a politician at a restaurant?

                    If a group of trump supporters organized themselves across the country and routinely caused civil/criminal disruption targeted at democratic politicians then I would expect them to be charged and prosecuted to the full extent of the law and if they used scare tactics to attempt to forcibly change political events, then, yes, I would say that meets part of the definition of fascist tactics.

                    BTW I agree that both parties are culpable and the extent to which logical fallacies and specious reasoning are employed by both sides is sickening.

                      ^I'm with this guy.

                      I don't see how attending a political rally, regardless of whom it is for, is comparable to harassing a politician, regardless of the letter behind their name.


                      I'm getting really tired of this shit. I can't even watch some sports highlights now without hearing about politics in some way.

                        It could certainly be construed as equitable. Especially if you were a member of the press being harassed in much the same manner as the Cruz's.

                        ^ Now, again, I don't agree with either of these examples being acceptable forms of demonstration or protest. But I would hesitate to call either of them the act of a fascist group.

                        Z31... I hear you. Unfortunately, it's election season so politics is turned up to 11 on all media outlets regardless of subject bring broadcast.

                              hey, it's trendy to compare politics to the third reich.

                                To be fair... The first thing that comes to most minds when hearing the word fascist is Reich, Mussolini, or Stalin. Just the way it is. BTW Cale... I lol'd. Going to have to remember that one.
