Before the Berkeley riots I had not heard of him,...

Not that it's the premise of his article, but the elite media has no idea what's going on in the country, including this writer.

The discussion struck me as a lot of gobbledygook.

The rioters are communists, or their willing dupes. It’s amazing that even those on the right have a hard time saying it. Communists. They are of the same ilk that had to be forcefully put down in Spain, and given helicopter rides in Chile. Let’s hope our respectable class gets them under control. Otherwise, there will be a reaction, and things might get ugly.

To: Kaslin; All

just read the whole thing on AmThinker. I should have just skipped to the last line in his article:

“...It’s time for the Left to take that page out of its playbook...”

then I would have saved myself the time spent on reading this stuff.

He does not clearly define that Fascism is born of the left, or the key component that binds Fascism to Marxism & Communism - the State is supreme, all is for the State... even the children.

Most of his article is finding fault within the left’s use of the “F-word”. But this isn’t some academic discussion to be pondered, is it?

His last line, calling upon the left to pull (exorcise, perhaps?) the use of this tactic from it’s playbook... I stopped there and wondered, “why would the left do such a thing?”. Because by throwing around the charge of fascism, this is not the smart or truthful thing to do?

To ask that question - can the left do the right thing? - is to answer it.

There is only one definition that matters:

"Political tags - such as royalist, communist, democrat, populist, fascist, liberal, conservative, and so forth - are never basic criteria. The human race divides politically into those who want people to be controlled and those who have no such desire." -- Robert A. Heinlein

Fascists and authoritarians of every stripe don’t like definitions and dictionaries.

Fascism:

Anything that comes out of the mouth of a Liberal politician, a Millennial college student, a Silicon Valley software mogul, or a Media talking head.

To me it’s

A) Anti-free speech

B) Corporate/Government collusion against the people, ie Obamacare

C) FDR

In any case in the US it primarily exists in the Democratic Party and friends.
