- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

This describes nearly every country that has ever existed, so how does the term have any meaning if you're right about this definition of fascism?
... this is a conversation about policy difference. Somehow by saying "actually there's a large difference" when there obviously is, means I have no issue with fascism? Nevermind that that would be an entirely separate topic that we only touched on because you brought it up apropos of nothing. I mean, that's just brain dead. Your official position:
"closing all the borders and eliminating all healthcare programs is literally the exact same as mostly maintaining the status quo then slowly adding improvements here and there. just like how boiling water is identical to lukewarm water."
I often wonder like what deluded thought process gets you from just going around saying smoothbrain bullshit like this and the perfect communist utopia you imagine? Are you actively eating lead every day or something? I don't even know how I'd turn my brain off like that if I wanted to.
if you're willing to vote for joe biden, knowing his policies up to this point, then you are willing to vote for fascism.
if all countries implemented direct democracy, does direct democracy lose its meaning?
Actually, kind of, yes. Because there wouldn't need to be a distinction drawn... just how words work.
we are all human but we still have a word for it. you don't seem to have a good grap of the concept of language.
Lol nope. The word human exists because other lifeforms do and you need a way to differentiate. Democracy is a word that exists because other governments exist. This is hilarious.
You're proving my point. You need words to describe things that aren't obvious or differ from other similar things.
And I wouldn't ridicule you if you weren't obviously dodging facts.
one of us is dodging facts, but its not me: i know what words mean.
Yes the person who thinks everyone is fascist is the one in touch with reality.
i never said everyone is fascist.
Just the vast majority of countries. And of course those who disagree with you.
being wrong doesn't make you a fascist. siding with fascist does though.
this is so vague it probably doesn't even mean anything.
god i hope this means you found the block button
