“Liberal-Fascist” is such an oxymoronic phrase lol
If Liberal still meant what it once did, that would be a pretty clear opposite. Liberals were all about maximum freedom and keeping government meddling into the lives of Americans to an absolute minimum. They were big into states rights too. Those Liberals are almost extinct these days.
In present context, it is not contrary at all. Socialism is on the political Left and the entire concept of fascism was built on the core concepts of Marxist Socialism by Mussolini. What passes for Liberal these days is authoritarianism constantly marching towards Socialism while refusing to admit that this is their inevitable destination. They want to do things like force every American to wear a mask and shutdown their lives. They want to take guns away. They advocate for programs that force quotas into hiring and college admissions. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone group in America that is quite so enthusiastic about meddling in the lives of people.

Here's another one: National Socialism.
Fascism usually requires a strongman type of leader.
They blame a group of people for the problems of the nation.
They say that lives will be better if these particular people didn’t exist.
They play into the fears of their followers, aswell as their prejudices.
Supremacy of military
Obsession with law and order
A narrative that the “enemy” is about to come get you.
That’s not coming from the left.
And here’s the funny thing. As much as you say that the left wants government to interfere with people’s lives, you come from the same crowd that tells women what to do with their bodies, fought against gay marriage and as much as they like to go on about states rights, and small government, they’re bigtime boot lickers. “Don’t tread on me, but tread on people I disagree with”.
And the complaints about masks just shows lack of common sense during a pandemic.
Masks being a symbol of oppression? Talk about first world problems. Yeesh...
Right, and the tyrannical authoritarian overreach that is being predicated by declaring America's biggest, most finacially important city as an "anarchist jurisdiction" as a pretext to a federal takeover and martial law, nullifying its democratically elected leaders, is not an authoritarian temper tantrum.
Actually, it is not a temper tantrum, it is a goddman terrifying development in what used to be a democratic country.
He's not my savior, and there is no excuse for the rhetoric that is coming from the Democrats/media. Their entire platform is that they are the moral high ground to Trump. Yet they are not behaving like it. They've been telling us they are the adults in the room. I'm not seeing that.
It's a pretty low bar.
Here is the standard of behavior set by the president, mocking a journalist, Serge Kovaleski who has arthrogryposis, a condition causing joint contracture in his right arm and hand.
Trump wants to pack the SCOTUS so he can invalidate the election when he loses. Staying in power is his only way of staying out of prison. It remains to be seen if there are enough patriotic Republicans left to block that, or if they will go ahead and sell the whole country into slavery.
Funny! Trump has not violated the USCON, since being elected.
By this time in Obama's tenure, he had been struck down over a dozen times.

I'm sick of their constant reference to burning things down. Enough already. For four years they have acted like every day is the apocalypse.
A conservative Supreme Court judge isn't the end of the world! It might not be what people want, but this extremist behavior has to stop.
I saw a photo of people in the suburbs with signs calling for "Revolution." Do they even know what they are saying??? Revolution means people die--- at a higher rate than Covid. Systems come crashing down. Schools, hospitals, infrastructure, commerce....over a judge. Over an unpopular president? People have gone INSANE. Where are the sane people? Why have so many people become dangerously radicalized?
This is how liberals are. It’s because they operate primarily on emotions. This is exactly how overly emotional people respond and behave. It’s part of what makes them effective at getting their message out is because they are so emotional about it. Conservatives and moderates will need to match this same emotion if we are going to provide the right balance.

Overly sensitive and easily offended.....
Their feelings are now a gauge of success or failure.
How THEY feel is all that matters.
The world revolves around them and their box.

Bot or Troll? This has been debunked to high heaven and I refuse to believe anyone real would post this as if it were true
We can tackle the Charlottsville "good people on both sides" debunking next if you want
