Continually, incessantly, endlessly,
I see people making the mistake of confusing conservatives,
with fascists.
While I am not a willing republican,
until we find a way to deep six the state, in it's entirety,
I thought this might clear a few things up.
Feel free to berate me and ridicule me as a statist
in the comments below,
but if you have some evidence that Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini
were conservative republicans, I'd be more than eager to hear it.
I'm inviting anyone who disagrees to tell me how stupid I am.
Please, tell me how is Trump a fascist? Anyone?

Oh, and, here's a very funny thing that I found
when looking for pictures comparing Il Duce to the Trump.
The picture at the top is not even Benito Mussolini, it is George C. Scott.

I'm completely with you. Being a pretty liberal individual with many liberal friends my opinion isn't popular, but what I like about him is what you see is what you get. Though honestly the last candidate hopeful that I cared about was Ron Paul. Since then I pretty much ran away from politics.

I don't think any of these politicians actually matter. I am more interested in breaking down the BS we've all been fed. We've been handed this left-right "spectrum", that has the same authoritarian/totalitarian option on both ends. It is easy enough to see, yet most people can't or won't. We even live on a sphere. If anyone goes left or right far enough, they get to the same place. It's not even really an abstract concept. How did so many people get so easily trapped in a false choice? How did liberal become the equivalent of leftist? I thought liberal came from the the word liber, meaning, of or having to do with the free. How did it come to mean neo-socialism? As soon as I make one statement that is not in total agreement with most people's party line, on the fake left or fake right, then I suddenly am with the enemy, and want to destroy all life for all time. It's like an infectious delusion to which only a few dozen people in the whole world are immune. Ron Paul might be one of them, but his son is not.
People say Trump is like Reagan. I agree, but for different reasons. They were both lifelong Democrats until they ran for president, and both have been entertainment personalities. I do think Trump is smarter than Reagan ever was, but I'm not sure if that is good or bad.

Once again, agreed. I became the peacemaking middlewoman between friends and family this election, it was ludicrous. I had to shut down facebook, I couldn't stand another second of watching the true agenda work it's black magic, the agenda to turn people on each other. The debates were a travesty, all they did was create anger, hatred, and division, by beating the racist, homophobic, etc. horse to death, and it was intentional as far as I'm concerned. And I'm no fan of Rand, he is not his dad at all.

It is mostly painful to watch, but I'm trying to see the comedy in it. People get so wound up over these cartoon characters who don't matter a whit in the scheme of the real. The whole campaign season was like watching a play, like one that I'd already read. It seemed the only thing to do was to use the circumstance to point out the learning possibilities in the moment. I'm not sure that accomplished much. It appears that most people enjoy playing the parts they are handed, without question.

Yeah, I think that is the one thing that would keep me in steemit almost no matter what, I've met more people here who understand exactly that point of view than anywhere else by far.

Agreed, I don't know a single person in meatspace who spends more than a minute a week thinking about the real. The stress appears to be too much, then they are off on their next attempt at diversion to relax, which they never seem to actually accomplish, and the more they divert, the less they seem to be able to handle thinking about it.
Personally , I'd be more stressed not knowing, living with constant dread of the unknown and unseen in my heart.

Both parties are fascist in the economic sense, seeking government control over all aspects of the economy while retaining the illusion of a free market and private property.

Agreed. I don't think either of the parties are faithful to their original tenets. Government control of business or corporate control of government, create the same outcome. Mussolini, himself said that fascism is the perfect marriage between government and business. That is how we end up with GMO promotion by Bush and the individual insurance mandate promotion by Obama. I honestly don't expect much from Trump, once he takes office. I'm trying more to clarify the distortions of ideologies by the politicians.
