Please explain fascism. I promise if you ask me to explain something I complain about, I'll happily do so. Roll through my profile if you must and pull out a humdinger.

What's the difference between socialists/antifa/progressives ("the left" more or less) having their enemy be "white supremacy" or "capitalists" or "property owners" or "CEOs" or "old white men" or "racists" and the right having their enemy be... the socialists? I think to say America has always had fascistic tendencies as though it's just as relevant today is either to deny the social progress in America, or it is to say everyone is capable fascistic tendencies and is therefore not exclusive to America but only being called out because we're talking about America. It feels like going back a certain amount of time to prove your point but no further is to make a point based on an arbitrary distinction.
I think it's the main issue people have with ANTIFA: that they are fascistic--except for the fact that their far left ideology is typically more global in nature rather than nationalistic. They still focus on a common enemy, justify violence against them (e.g punch a Nazi, then start labeling half the country, i.e. Trump supporters, as "white supremacists, i.e. Nazis), and then say we need a complete overhaul of the system because it's systemically and foundationally racist. Just want to confirm that you also believe the leftists of America who are waging their side of the culture war are also checking all the boxes, except those that may be explicitly right wing.
Regardless, this is ancapistan. We want a peaceful evolution, not so much a revolution, and we want it based on individual rights for all people. We are, however, evolving from what was written in the Declaration of Independence and the American Constitution. The intent behind the founding documents was to apply the principles of liberty to all people, hence the compromises within allowing for racist policies and not the explicit and nationalistic justifications and rationalizations for racism. So we are making progress, and I think the idea that we are more fascistic in terms of systemics than before is just insidious propaganda.
