yep, being the offesive bully. it's something the left loves to talk about and I personally agree with them. it's weird how that same logic doesn't apply domestically though eh?
labeling fascism as on the right is a trick the left employed after Wwii. before Wwii fascism was understood to be on the left where every other ideology that champions the complete power of the centralized state is.
there are 3 major collectivist movements in the 20th century: communism, fascism and progressivism, all reside in the left.
I'm fact Benito Mussolini praised fdr's book "looking forward" in Italian magazines saying that "fdr is one of us". Roosevelt sent folks to Italy to study what Mussolini was doing with the fascist movement and fdr considered the fascists very much advanced progressives.
just because fascists fought communists in Wwii doesn't mean they were on opposite sides of the political spectrum.
ideologically the Nazis vs commies was like Sunni vs shiite, Quaker vs puritan; all these struggles reside in the same sides of their ideological spectrum, the left, Christianity and Islam respectively.
the "anti-fascists" of today are facist by their actions....their words hold little to zero value about what they are.
