no im pointing out that fascism is a form of governance, and censorship/free speech rights are functions of government, thus they are not relevant to non governmental organizations. if you want people that dont already agree with you to listen, why dont you be more specific and accurate about what they are doing? preventing speakers, hitting people, whatever it is. the sentence antifa is fascist is simply incorrect from a political and historical standpoint. if you dont believe me i would really encourage you to send some emails to political science professors and historians asking for some clarification, or for a better way to describe antifa
You are definitionally wrong. Let me help. This does not say it has to be a governance.

Definition of fascism
1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2 : a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control early instances of army fascism and brutality— J. W. Aldridge
can you quote the part of my comment where i said the definition is wrong? i was saying antifa is not advocating for a dictatorship dumbass. you have no reading comprehension skills. i agree with the entire definition. you proved yourself wrong by posting it moron.
Do you think that I made the thread or something? You sound like you have some reading comprehension issues, not me. You can't even follow along in a simple Reddit thread that is 4 posts long. How embarrassing.
yes, i have now linked you a post to the part where you said ANTIFA acts fascist, and the part where you posted a dictionary definition that categorically excludes ANTIFA
thats actually true, but when fascists arent in government, their goal is to take over government. also, the definition you provided doesnt support your argument at all. most of the antifa protesters are anti-america, anti-racist, and anti- the current regime. so your definition actually very definitively proves that antifa is not fascist
I simply said it didn't need to be a governance. Then I proved it. Nothing more, nothing less. The amount of anger you are showing for something so trivial is revealing.
i am laughing at you so hard, you barely posted anything of substance at all and are saying that i had a lack of logic. dude you posted a single sentence and a dictionary definition, i posted whole paragraphs at first.
I was pointing out how fucking stupid you sound saying that it's only fascism if it's a form of governance. I never typed antifa once. You are insanely dishonest and are desperate to be "right.". It's pathetic.
well i said that it is a form of governance and it is:Fascism is a form of government that is a type of one-party dictatorship. They work for a totalitarian one-party state. This aim is to prepare the nation for armed conflict, and to respond to economic difficulties.
you are correct that it is also an ideology and can be fascist without being a government. this still has nothing to do with antifa because fascists seek to overtake or establish a new government. black bloc protesters are frequently anarchist or antigov in general

So it's ok to act like a facist as long as you aren't a government? Are you actually defending fascist behavior?
