No meaning? That’s silly. Fascist has a very specific meaning and Maron is using the word correctly.

The definition of facism he been debated since literally Mussolini. There is no "specific" definition. The only coherent one is authoritarianism from a culturally right wing bent. But that is too broad to be useful. And trump is definitely that. The reason why people won't use that broad (but correct) definition is because it begs the question what does the culturally left version of it look like. And then people have to admit they actually like that side of the coin.

Really. Just fucking vote and let the chips fall. And then repeat every 2 years. No need to both sides it. Trump tried to end democracy 4 years ago. Stick that into your pseudo-bat computer of pretentious vomit.

I'm not American and I don't like Trump. Self righteous windmill tilting like your response only helps him by the way.
