Liberals are oblivious to the dangers of socialism but are as sensitive as cat whiskers to fascism, which they imagine is hiding around every corner and under their bed. Liberals are able to detect fascism in lapel pins, fireworks displays, tricolored buntings, pride in American athletics, literal interpretation of the Constitution, belief in free markets, dislike of the nannystate, racial colorblindness, going to church, having kids, owning a gun, pride in the military, disliking our enemies, living in states other than NY and CA, posting on FR, etc..
