I define a "fascist" as one who advocates a system of government marked by
centralization of authority under a dictator, stringent socioeconomic
controls, suppression of the opposition through terror and censorship, and a
policy of belligerent nationalism and racism.
Michael has never given (to my knowledge) his definition of a fascist, but
he has alluded to the fact that he considers me to be one.
I am not a fascist because I don't advocate fascism.
My guess is that Michael thinks I'm a fascist because I am in favor of gun
control and ubiquitous transparancy.
