No we can only call it fascism when it's too late to stop it. Can't use the F word until then apparently.

his guy thinks so
Look at it this way. Nobody shows up to an orgy naked. You have to sort of just let the gradual nudity happen...

i cant watch him without thinking of his debate with Richard Dawkins in which he said that he believed that Mohammed actually went up to heaven on a flying horse. in real life...

Yeah well... That's just your standard religious nonsense. Doesn't mean he can't be correct on other matters.

But you have to then follow it up with “How did this happen? Why didn’t anyone warn us?”
We didn't think he was serious and never thought he would hurt us, just those other people!

If not, it’s pretty damn close. What would be lacking for it not to be fascism? Large scale nationalisation of their resources maybe? Other than that they tick most of the boxes.

Quite right.
It just always amuses me.
The news is always bizarre to watch over here. The existence of God isn't a question, it's a fact.

People will point to the fact that you are still free to criticise the government, as if they get points for that. It also completely ignores the fact that if they could get away with with stopping your right to criticise them overnight they would. Instead, thet'll have to take small steps towards getting there.
Like attempting to imprison Michael Cohen for writing a book, or forcing Generals out of the Army for telling the truth about what Trump has done.
Someone look up Eco's fourteen definitions of Facism and I'll provide an example for how each condition has already been met.

Sort of free- you cant do it by protesting. And you cant always do it by writing a book- because they try to block it.

I'm sure the answer to that remains whether it meets your political views. I.e. is it a friend of corbz?
Another thing you're wrong about then!

Possibly but unlikely
Hmmm. I'm sure we all have a view on that.
Mine is that you're in here fishing because you're getting no nibbles on your Mick post, you naughty scamp!

That's a large chunk of the problem.
God will provide. Let us pray for (insert stuff).
Assumption is to make an ass out of you and me.
Those who assume they know you, when they don't are just guessing.
Those who assume and insist they know are daft and in denial.
Those who assume, insist, and deny the truth are plain stupid.
Those who assume, insist, deny the truth and tell YOU they know you (when they don't) have an IQ in the range of 35-49.

The UK has its fair share of nutters too. I could probably name 20 at a push eg Hopkins,Yaxley-Lennon,Icke but the USA Yikes - there's thousands.
We have a slightly better quality of nutter, Smoker. But that's about it. We're looking at the thin end of a pretty nasty wedge but some seem very happy to kick back and accept it.
They were warned about Farage, Hopkins, Brexit, Trump et al many times over, but apparently it's our fault for letting it happen.
Mea culpa.

I like to think that us Brits aren't so gullible as the yanks but I could be wrong. I remember a TV evangelical who got caught with his trousers down and he asked his audience for their forgiveness, their prayers and their money. They gave him all 3.
Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

Whitehall got it quite right on his new Netflix special. Something along the lines of “The UK has stupid people, but when the US does stupid it does STUPID.”
