...that perfectly describes pretty much every well-known political ideology. Politics 101 right here.
Not trying to spark a political flamewar, just posting something I thought was pretty funny
Sorry for potato quality, I had like 5 seconds to take a picture.

3 RepliesMost of America is more Fascist then Capitalistic these days...Just look at the 14 points of Fascism. 1) Powerful and continuing expressions of nationalism : MURICA! -nuff said. 2) Disdain for the importance of human rights: Guantanamo bay, forced sterilization of poor people etc. 3) Identification of enemies/scapegoats as a unifying cause: "Darn illegals" etc 4) The supremacy of the military/avid militarism: Who gets all the funding in the USA? Not health care that's who. 5) Rampant sexism: Maybe not so much anymore. 6) A controlled mass media: Fox news anyone? 7) Obsession with national security: Self explanatory. 8) Religion and ruling elite tied together: Every prez seems to have a Pastor. 9) Power of corporations protected: After the 2008 crash, not a single Bankster went to jail. 10) Power of labor suppressed or eliminated: Lets crush every union possible, then hire cheap illegals that we don't have to treat like people. 11) Disdain and suppression of intellectuals and the arts: They are now making "Safe Zones" in Collages and University's for Republicans. They are also trying to get certain books banned like Shakespeare. And certain classic rock songs aren't considered PC enough to play on the radio. 12) Obsession with crime and punishment: America has more jails, and sends more people to jail then anywhere in the world. 13) Rampant cronyism and corruption: Self explanatory. But there's a lot of backscratching going on. 14) Fraudulent elections: Bush won fair an square right? So sorry OP, but your poster is wrong..Fascism is more then a farmer getting shot, in fact it's almost exactly like what America has become in the past 20 years. And maybe if they bothered to teach you what these things are, you would actually try to change them, but I have a felling they don't want that.
