…and of course, onlly a Fascist system covers that. So every oppressive dictatorship in history - there’s been rather a lot - has been Fascist, in your opinion? You would be very hard pressed to find anyone who has done any political theory to agree with you on that.
And what term would you prefer? As to every oppressive regime in history, definitions evolve with time. I’ll use whatever time appropriate word that was used for them. In this case, we aren’t just saying fascist, we’re saying Islamofascist, which implies an Islamic version of the system, even if you want to stick to old definitions. Or maybe you’d like to call it a fusion of the two systems? I’ve met Green Nazis before, so you can’t tell me you can’t combine two previously seperate political systems, even if the name appears as a contradiction, using old definitions. Regardless, the second definition wasn’t created by me, it was created by the American Heritage Dictionary. Take the political theory around it up with them, if you disagree so strongly with it.
Oh, indeed. And some terms remind me of the teenager stamping his feet and calling his parents ‘fascists’ because he hasn’t learnt any better insults and knows that ‘fascist’ is the BIG BAD word.
Not sure what you mean by this. Teenagers throw whatever they can at good ole ma and pa. I don’t think I ever used that term for my parents. Anyways, anything else?
