Fascists see a community threatening their power, they send in the oligarchs to destroy it. This was always the plan. Same with Reddit. Fediverse is where it’s at. We all saw how the attempted Freenode coup went. That garbage human wasn’t fooling anyone for even a second. Dude never had a chance.
That’s by-the-book gaslighting. Fascism has a definition in the dictionary and thousands of years of specific examples of how that definition came to be. When someone’s actions fall under that definition on an extremely consistent basis, the word is 100% appropriate. “everything I don’t like is fascism” is, literally, a phrase ONLY fascists use.
1
often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2
: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control
““everything I don’t like is fascism” is, literally, a phrase ONLY fascists use.”
Wow congratulations. This is the most stupid quote I have read on Lemmy to date. Had no clue I was fascist, maybe I should stop voting for the Swedish left-wing parties then.

Ok, so how it falls under “dictionary definition of fascism”?
The dictionary definition in question.
1 often capitalized : a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2 : a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control
