This is going to be another "mudslingin' thread". But what the heck...

I copied this from the text:
You're right, "fascism" or "fascist" is a terribly loaded word, and it evokes a historical period, primarily that of the Nazis, and to a lesser extent Mussolini. But fascism as an ideology has generic qualities…Does this mean that this is Nazi Germany? No. Does this mean that this is Mussolini's Italy? No. Does this mean that this is a deeply anti-democratic movement that would like to impose a totalitarian system? Yes.
What it means and what the majority of common popul doesn't get, 'Fascism" is a generic term.
We're being fooled by comparison of Hitler's Third Reich or Mussolini's Italy. We're being told, that's what is fascism.
But what we're not being told is that these are only 2 examples of it and fascism can occure in many different forms, shapes and colors.
References of Fascism are not a black or braun shirt.
