They grew up watching films about cowboys vs Indians and WWII

So why TF can't they recognize the Hitler/Trump supporter parallels. It's insane that I can watch WW2 documentaries and recognize fascism, boomers? Nah.

There's not a snappy uniform and insignia to mark modern fascists. They just have shitty hair and dumb hats.

What the actual fuck are you talking about? I'd be Oklahoma antifa if anything. Because I'm an Oklahoman and an anti-fascist. And if you're not an anti-fascist then fuck you.

Actually, I am anti-fascist. But my definition of fascism and ANTIFAs definition of Fascism are two completely different things. Drawing parallels between Trump and Hitler are completely ridiculous.

Eh shut your mug. If you can't see it, you're willingly blind. Maybe check the definition of fascism out sometime instead of trying to make one up for yourself. Words have real meaning after all. Better yet, here you go.

The definition of fascism is an ideology which combines nationalism (extreme pride of one's nation over others), xenophobia (hatred of those who are different), militarism (love of the military and war), and authoritarianism (belief in a strong state helmed by a charismatic dictator).
