    Based on a brief tour through their (corsican puppy) comment history I’m guessing BlueMAGA at least, which translates to “I’m a Nazi but I don’t like being called a Nazi”. Here’s an excerpt from one of their recent comments:

    Voting isn’t some bargain between a thousand voting groups and one candidate. Let’s break it down.

    THERE ARE TWO CANDIDATES

    YOU PICK THE BEST CANDIDATE

    […]

    The unmentioned third option is “If you vote third party or don’t vote at all, you accept the consequences of a worst-case scenario”.

      I looked it up, knowyourmeme says it’s people who blindly support Biden similarly to how trumpists support Trump. I didn’t know that was a thing… but how does that makes them nazi? is it that they embody the “strongman principle” as put by Daniel Guérin to be one of the four pillars of fascism?

        I think anyone who engages in, advocates, or aids a genocide, particularly based on a perceived sense of racial superiority over the victimized group, qualifies sufficiently as a Nazi.

          Where in that post did the user advocate for genocide? Also real question, were the perpetrators of the Rwandan genocide also Nazis? Did Turks become Nazis during the Armenian genocide? That seems like too broad of a definition to me

          I’ve been using the term “fascist” to describe Democrats for quite some time, because really looking closely at the definitions/characteristics of fascism and how this society works - you have this economically and structurally enforced racial supremacy, you have the nationalism, the militarism, the merger of business and state - the fact that Democrats pay lip service to leftism doesn’t really change it. Democrats haven’t really changed in the last two years, rather, the genocide of Palestine just laid bare who they were for us.
