Well, it seems you have misinterpreted fascism. One of it's founding
tenets is anti-liberalism. It is a movement of the *right*.
I do not "misinterpret" anything to do with the English language. I happen
to be an expert on it. Fascism is a political philosophy, movement, or
regime that exalts nation and often race and stands for a centralized
autocratic often militaristic government.
Central, autocratic government is a liberal (socialist) ideal. Read
autocratic as dictatorship. It is far from conservatism which is considered
to be on the right in the current political spectrum. Today's conservative
movement is for smaller, decentralized government and a strict abiding by
the Constitution. I know it's difficult to understand because today's
so-called conservative seems to grow government like crazy but the
conclusion that needs be drawn is Republican doesn't necessarily equal
conservative. On the other hand, Democrat definitely means liberal. Fascist
liberal is a slightly more to the left version of what we see in today's
Democrat party. Believe me, Hillary Rodham is a fascist.
It is necessary to abide by today's definitions of liberalsim vs.
conservatism - i.e. left vs, right in order to have an intelligent
discussion. Your harkening back to some mythical founding tenet couched in
the past when the terms were defined diferently than they are now is a lame
attempt to misdirect the discussion. Now, go to the back of the class..
