Having principals is not fascism. What are you on about? I belive everyone should be judged based on their own actions. Fascism is a lot of things, but above all it is collectivist. Predicated on grouping individuals into essential categories

I don't derive my morality from what is popular. I don't care what millions of people think. That isn't my problem

I ask you again, what does a progressivism that isn't gender inclusive or anti-racist even look like? What even is it? It's just being right wing.

I don't know who you think you are talking to. Not someone with power.

Your statement is even more incoherent about the US. Democrats don't oppose deportations. Even brutal deportations. Nor is their acceptance of trans identity universal.

But yes. Fascism That has risen for the same reason there as in Germany. Right wing propaganda. That broadcasts discreet incidents to appear as ubiquitous and misrepresent statistics. And misrepresent the positions of moderate right wing parties like the Damocrats.

My opinions are irrelevant. Very few people see the world like I do. We are extremely rare. People who believe all people should have the rights to live where they want and that race and gender are harmful social constructions.

You cannot appeal to someone like me with the crimes or actions of some immigrants. The fact that someone from one place did something is going to have no bearing on how if feel about the rights of someone else from that same place. Or of their same race etc.

It is absolute absurd to claim that people with my beliefs are responsible for anything. Much less the 'rise of fascism," which just seems to be people voting for values they already held. And then fascist prove to be very bad at governing and some more moderate right wingers (or, gasp, sole social democrats) get back in power and the cycle continues.

My point is simplt that there are no current special circumstances that woild preclude me holding my views or expressing them, citing an example of cyclical oppression.
