That’s your clever take-away? Wow. I am devastated.
It doesn't require cleverness to see how desperately insecure you are.
I am the dumbest, most wrong and most insecure poster here.

It's funny how neo-Nazis apparently hate being called Nazis, so much so that they'll vote for a damned Nazi.

Strange.
Remember how hilarious it was when Rush Limbaugh called feminists “feminazis?” And not just once. Remember when conservatives rose up and in a single voice said “stop that — its dehumanizing!”

OK. I accept your conditions. But I still think that the Whiskey account has more brain processing ability than the Hound account, given that the latter has been completely unable to define terms like Marxist or Progressive. And while you’ve been unable to define words like woman or amazing, you might be able to speculate about why MAGA folks take issue with being likened to ‘fascists’.

If fascism is “a far-right, authoritarian, and ultranationalist political ideology defined by a dictatorial leader, strict social and economic control, suppression of opposition, and an intense focus on national or racial unity”, then isn’t pretty much all of that the point of MAGA, for a large number of vocal Trump voters?

Nick Fuentes complained last summer that Trump wasn’t MAGA enough. What do you suppose he was referring to?

It's funny/sad how one-sided all this is.

I've never heard anyone on the left say stuff like, "We voted for Kamala because we were sick of being called bleeding hearts, progressives, the enemy within, leftist terrorists, antifa, and all the other crap right-wingers call us! Wake up!"

And the reason we never hear that is because even if they are offended by those labels, they would never base their vote off of petty, childish resentment of the other side. They aren't idiotic, immature babies. Nobody worries how the left will react to anything because they're mostly grownups, but people will pay for security on the off-chance some lunatic right-winger is offended by, well, anything.

Basically, MAGA is the political version of a controlling, abusive husband who likes to say things like, "Why do you make me beat you like this?" They're screwed up, character-disordered, irresponsible, emotionally stunted children. At least, that's how a lot of them act (like we see on this forum).
Religion is for people whose existential fear is greater than their common sense. It's also the favored cover for hypocrites.

The god idea is popular with desperate people.

Calling everyone you don’t like a fascist doesn’t make you credible.

He may only be referring to the fascists. Can’t be sure, though, as the word doesn’t show up in that post.

That second paragraph seems true, for certain.

I think it's cute that he pretends to care about credibility.

Pretty funny, actually.

I'm surprised he didn't go with "incredible." At least that could be interpreted a couple of ways.
