Trump a Fascist?

Expert compares Trump's politics to fascism
[quote]Yale philosophy professor Jason Stanley explains why he
claims President Donald Trump's politics are akin to fascism, a
political movement based around a leader.[/quote]??

Fascism is about national unity, Trump and rightists are about
national division. Trump is as divisive a leader as one can get,
Trump cannot be fascist.
(I would hope most political movements revolve around a leader,
that is a silly statement to make...).
[quote]Mussolini's Rise to Power
He argued that only a strong leader could unite the people to
overcome Italy's postwar mass unemployment, chaotic political
party conflicts, and strikes by socialists and communists. In
1919, Mussolini organized his fascist movement in the northern
city of Milan.[/quote]

Trump and his supporters have increased 'chaotic party
conflicts' with their ideology, not decreased them.
Trump and his supporters are tribalists, not fascists!
Furthermore, National Socialism and Fascism are two very
different political ideologies.
[quote]The rich ruling class has used tribalism, a primitive
caveman instinct, to their advantage since the beginning of
time. They use it to divide and conquer us. They drive wedges
between us peasants and make us fight each other, so we won’t
rise up against our rulers and fight them.
You can observe the same old trick everywhere in America today:
Red states and blue states are fighting. Christians and Muslims
are fighting. Men and women are fighting. Baby Boomers and
Millennials are fighting. Black people and white people are
fighting.
That doesn’t just happen all by itself. There are always voices
instigating these fights. — Oliver Markus Malloy, Make Racism
Wrong Again[/quote]
What Malloy doesn't realize of course is that the 'ruling class'
are tribalists themselves!

Noam Chomsky Says Trump is WORSE Than Hitler
HTML https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6mAf_uPy-o
Noam Chomsky clearly understands nothing about Hitler, should we
be surprised considering Chomsky is Jewish himself? Or, is
Chomsky being intentionally deceptive?

Consequently, this is why I do not like most people all that
much....

If you look at the comments in some of the conservative videos,
quite a few of them compare the BLM protestors to Nazis or Brown
Shirts. Do THEY understand what Hitler was all about?

Are you aware rightists and leftist forces shot it out in the
streets of Germany after WWI? Some of the similarities between
Germany post WWI and the U.S. of today are uncanny. Some could
even argue we are heading for a Wiemar Republic 2.0 in the
United States present day. Although, I do not know if I agree
fully with that assessment considering Democratic Socialism
doesn't have a strong foot hold in the U.S. as it did the Wiemar
Republic. BLM calls for unity among all anti-racists and
leftists, much like the NSDAP called for unity among leftist
forces in the face of Jewish racism. BLM confronts Jewish racism
just as the NSDAP did, the NSDAP being much better at it though
obviously. BLM does not have a well thought out political
ideology behind it either, as far as I can tell.
The slogan of the NSDAP may as well have been: "German Lives
Matter". So, there is a parallel there as well.
The only thing that is missing in the U.S. present day
unfortunately are true revolutionary socialists....

It was a rhetorical question. The BLM critics probably don't
know how correct they are making that comparison.
If only BLM supporters would not call the opposition Nazis.
Maybe a slur for an identitarian?
Did the Brown Shirts and Hitler Youth destroy businesses
indiscriminately?

I think the word racists works fine. The sooner this battle
becomes a battle between racist vs. anti-racists the better it
will be for anti-racists.
[quote]Did the Brown Shirts and Hitler Youth destroy businesses

During Kristallnacht the SA targeted Jewish stores and
synagogues for destruction against the wishes of Hitler. I
believe there is a speech out there that Hitler gave just before
Kristallnacht in-which he states how "a single hair on a Jews
head should not be harmed", even after Judea declared war on
Germany. Hitler was shocked by Kristallnacht and in private
spoke on how Jews would use it against him. (I cannot recall
where I read that at the moment).
German anger was understandable in that regard though some would
argue considering how Jews boycotted German businesses. Many
Germans already held a deep rooted grudge against Jews because
of the general strike that was created by Marxists in Germany
near the end of WWI, a war where Germany looked like it was
going to be the sole victor over England, France, and Russia.
The general strike cost Germany the war ultimately. Many Germans
viewed the general strike as a "stab in the back" by Jews toward
Germany, Germany having historically been one of the only
nations where Jews were truly protected by the state.
So, to answer your question, no, not really. Germans were very
specific on which businesses they targeted for destruction and
that work was mostly carried out by the SA against Hitler's will
some would argue.

I disagree with targeting small businesses indiscriminately
also. However, how do we know that some of the destruction being
done to small business present day in the U.S. is not the result
of provocateurs infiltrating groups like the BLM?
Why not target the big corporations who are known to support
racist causes, like Home Depot for example? Isn't the CEO of
Home Depot a Trump supporter? I don't understand this either. I
could understand targeting specific small business who are known
to support racists, but that doesn't seem to be what is
happening either....?

Well said. Instead of arduously trying to convince leftists who
haven't yet seen the light that National Socialism is good and
Fascism is at least not bad, for the time being it's sufficient
to convince them to label our enemies racists and nothing else.
The notion that "you don't have to be a Nazi to be racist"
already seems to be quite widespread among the Woke, so people
who insist on calling them "Nazis" or "Fascists" can at least be
called out for diluting the issue.

In Portland, they're still targeting the Federal building which
practically a fortress. There's a small FED branch several
blocks away which would be an easy ransack. Hopefully, it would
motivate others to target the main regional branches.
Heck downtown is full of bank and insurance buildings; as well
as a bunch of Starbucks.
Alex Jones did stories on agent provacateurs about 10 years ago.
I remember protestors catching a masked guy with a rock and
telling him to put it down. I forget what the protest was about.

Only False Leftists would see similarities between Trump
supporters and Muslims:

It is up to True Leftists to correct them:
