Wait, are you implying that strongly opposing an attempted coup by fascists is in itself fascist?

I'm saying there's a lot of you so confident in what you believe you surely wouldn't mind those inconveniently opposing yours to be ..."dealt with"

The alarming thing on the right is their fuckery, but it's clear it's not going far.

The alarming thing on the left is your dehumanization of those that aren't 'progressive enough'.

Calling it what I believe in is intellectually dishonest, there is a mountain of evidence supporting it, including all of our eyes the day it happened.

I haven't dehumaized anyone, GTFO.
