The World War II-era “Simple Sabotage Field Manual” is full of steps that office workers can take to resist leadership.

Which is exactly why it’s relevant today.
Fascists don’t magically stop being fascists just because you happen to hate the same people they do.
they do if you delude the meaning of what a Fascists is. in that way we can all be Fascists because it does not mean anything anymore. and who do you think that helps. that’s what happens when you play with the meaning of words they become meaningless.
What do you think “fascism” means?
if you mean in current day people i disagree with .that is what it means now. the real meaning is fucked now because lefty commie fucks have been trowing that word around like candy. its the definition of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.
That is not what I asked. You’re saying it’s being used incorrectly, which means you have a definition in mind which isn’t being met. What is that definition?
the definition of fascism.
The Encyclopaedia Britannica definition?
Or maybe the Webster’s Dictionary definition?
Because by those definitions “fascism” is not being used incorrectly.
If you have an alternate definition which supports your claim, you’ll need to provide it yourself.
ah yes just re-post the Dictionary and your all done. that’s the definition and now you have to apply it and make it seem its just that simple its not about the definition its how you use the definition and if you can really call someone a fascist because you disagree with them. its used as insult not because anybody believes in fascism. its used as a synonym for bad thing when it has a specific definition. just like the dude who said he spotted the Nazi just because he did not like my reply. it has nothing to do with what Nazi actually means the same with fascism. so just re-posting the Dictionary is meaningless it has nothing to do with that. its just labeling someone because you disagree with what they say and then just call them something bad for effect and that effect means nothing anymore because its overused and over done.
You said people were using the word wrong. I asked you what the word means. You said it means the definition, so I provided the definition. You still have not provided a meaning that demonstrates that the word is being used incorrectly.
We’re not calling people fascists because we don’t like them, we don’t like them because they fit the definition of a fascist. You have cause and effect reversed.
Again, if you would like to provide a definition for “fascism” that supports your claim, feel free to do so. Until then, the rest of us will continue to refer to the dictionary definition, and call the people who meet that definition “fascists”.
Right, but in the case of the current US and the current administration, the term is accurate.
you just say that because your not politically aligned with the current administration. you would support all of this if it was your side doing it and you would be a lot more rigid and forgiving in your definition of Fascists for them. for your political opponents a very broad definition of fascism. for the side you Aline with a very narrow rigid definition of fascism to be lot more forgiving. calling people fascists is just a political game that most people eye roll at now. it has lost all its effect its politically meaningless the only thing it does now is show your a lefty or a communist. and people eye roll at that to.
It’s really sort of astonishing that every single thing you said here is wrong. And mostly misspelled to boot.
…oh, but it does…
