It’s insane how blatant it is in this article. Fascism is literally used here to mean “something I don’t like”. I don’t agree with anti-vaxxers who fought lockdowns, mask mandates, and vaccine mandates. But these people are quite literally fighting for less government control. How can that be construed as fascist? > is a practitioner of “shamanic arts” who eats natural and organic food, and has more than once been described as an “ecofascist”. People who eat “natural and organic food” secretly want the state to control their lives? Give me a fucking break! |

At risk of derailing this thread... It's entirely possible for someone to fight against government control in specific areas of policy. If that person feels threatened they might become more strident in their views, and become more supportive of new policies that implemented their preferences 'firmly'.
I've rarely seen anyone support 'less government' in 100% of situations. When anyone's societal values are threatened (real or imagined) there will be demand for the government to do something about it. When people feel increasingly threatened, they support increasingly 'robust' politicians.
Having said all that, I agree that the word 'fascist' is unhelpful here.
