    The Biden administration may not be directly responsible, but just like Trump, his endorsement of racism and fascism emboldens the racists and fascists to act more openly.

      What Trump did by having protesters shot with rubber bullets by the National Guard in DC and driving tanks through Portland was certainly fascist. How has Biden been fascist to protesters?

        I never said Biden was a fascist, though I am saying that now. Biden is a corporo-fascist, just like nearly every US politician.

        What I said was that he endorses fascism, i.e. a fascist state, i.e. Israel.

          So you’re saying the police were dispatched because Israel is fascist, and Biden supports Israel, therefore Biden supports fascism, and that empowers the local police.

          Reaching like that, you should stretch before you pull something.

          By definition a liberal is not a fascist.

          You don’t even know what you are talking about.

              But he isn’t. You just think he is because you think everyone that disagrees with you is a fascist.

                Germans or Italians of 1942 probably didn’t think their government was fascist either.

              No, I think you should look up the differences between fascists and liberals.

              Biden is the most liberal who ever liberalled.

                He is the liberal version of trump, He’s done several of the same things that Trump has done that liberals cried out about but are now silent on those same actions.
