    I’m saying that expecting the term fascist to be a deterent to voters is clearly a losing strategy no matter how you or I feel about fascism, as demonstrated by the fact that we’ve tried it twice now and it only barely worked the first time. Democrats do need to learn how to fight dirty but I wouldn’t use the term fascistic to describe those tactics.

      If the endless blockbuster WWII movies and channels full of documentaries and major TV miniseries haven’t been enough to convince the U.S. that fascism is a terrible fucking idea, the Democratic Party didn’t have a snowball’s chance in hell.
