It is hypocritical to claim to be the party of law and order when you support sedition, the interference of elections, and violence against political enemies.

I’m not saying you’re a troll, the jury is still out on that. But I’m saying the guy who calls himself stupider is a troll.
Ah, I see what you meant now. I’m too used to you and others calling me a troll automatically, simply because I disagree.
Regardless, from what I can tell, Stew Peters is his actual name, not a joke or troll name:

And double regardless, shit like this within conservatism should be a giant red flag no matter what subsection of conservatism is saying it. Being “ironically” racist is racist, similarly being “ironically” fascist is still fascist. /u/PeepinGoodArgs has explained this very well.
Im still not convinved he isn’t just a troll, especially with a birthday on april fools days, but that is a lot of effort.
Red flag for what exactly? We all know assholes and idiots exist.
That second link is from a court case, which presumably would have his actual name. And again, I don’t care too much if he is a troll or not. The fact that conservatives embrace him at all is a problem.
For conservatism. I’m sure you’ve heard this quote before, “If there’s a Nazi at the table and 10 other people sitting there talking to him, then you got a table with 11 Nazis.” This guy may not be a literal Nazi, but he is waving the flag of fascism for one reason or another, and he is quite successful in the right wing sphere from what I can tell.
What exactly are you implying?
I’m saying that fascism is a problem within conservatism. And guys like this are an example.
Fascism is a problem across all over the political spectrum. Look at any tankie post if you want left wing fascism.
Yeah, because if there is one thing fascists have been historically known for, it’s been pro-communism. In case it wasn’t clear, that was a joke, fascists put communists to death.
Tankies are terrible, but nowhere near as big of a problem. This isn’t a both sides issue.
Fascism as a term is vague and isn’t limited to any one thing anymore, no one is talking about 1930s/1940s Italy anymore.
