I don’t understand what you think “Fascism” is, and how the “United States” is Fascist.

I don't have an opinion on what the word "fascism" means, I'm sure dictionaries and/or wikipedia cover it fine

The United States is fascist because it's the name of a group of people with fascist ideology

Well if you don't have a definition for Fascism then how can you describe something as such?

It's like if I say The United States is Communist without quantifying "Communism".

My quantifying of Communism would be that of an Authoritarian regime that utilizes economic redistribution to enact socio-economic equities across racial, and class systems.

That being said, that is not the commonly accepted nor "correct" definition of Communism according to Communist literature, Communism according to Communist literature is a stateless, classless, and moneyless society.

But at least I describe to you what I mean when I say something is "Communist".

This is way too long for something that starts with a retarded question.

If the colloquial and academic definitions aren't enough for you, what else is supposed to be left? Just letting you make up whatever meaning you want for the word? What's the point of talking to you then?

No, my point is a conversation, or debate is unproductive when terms aren't defined.

I want you to define Fascism, even if you're using a third parties definition then at the very least you could link your definition of Fascism by which source, or dictionary you're using.

You're the one that brought up the word "fascism" which I proceeded with as the word that it is in English.

If you're getting your definition from some source that isn't colloquial or the dictionary or wikipedia, idk what it is and it probably isn't worth engaging with.

My definition of Fascism would be that of an Authoritarian element that focuses on National Collectivism.

Or this article sufficiently describes my thoughts on Fascism as well, from the economic stand point.

Ok, idk what that means but if a dictionary or wikipedia or colloquial usage backs you up on that then America does it

it's time for you to do some reading IMO. There's more hard and soft tyranny in our country than anyone ever thought could happen here. Our founding fathers did what they could do to prevent it for as long as possible, but here we are-a hot mess. Why do you think it's gotten this way? Hint: Broken Money, and base human instincts.

I will agree that The United States has increased in Authoritarian behaviors, and practices.

However, I would not describe these acts or practices as an ethnic cleansing of Religious, or ethnic minorities.

Deportation isn’t Fascist.

I just want to remember that the US by founding is an immigrant construct. If the natives would have had better guns, you'd been quickly deported to Europe again. Or just massacred.

Well yeah, the groups of people that presumably traveled across an ice bridge from Asia typically referred to as The "Native Americans" if they somehow did overpower European settlers then it would've been their right to tell them to return to Europe.

The Natives Americans were Native to the America contintent but were a tribe, not a Nation, The Nation of The United States is Descended primarily from Anglo, and Germanic individuals, so it is fair to say That there were Tribes on The American Contintent but The Nation of The United States is Anglo-Saxon, or European.

Also supposedly Nordic Vikings went to The America's well before Spanish exploration.

So who knows.
