after St. Louis police unions instructed officers to publicly display The Punisher's insignia (the mark of a lawless, fascist murderer) the comic book community was quick to point out the stupidity, and the frankly horrifying message sent by supposed peace officers endorsing a maniac. So it's a good thing The Punisher personally confirms he hates cops who see him as a friend… making every cop who "wears his mark" or calls themselves a "fan" look like shameful fool in the process.

I think in this case "fascist" means "anything I don't like." You know, like "socialism".

Am I that old? Words used to have meaning...

It means both things, you just have to pick apart who's saying it.

Put another way, if someone is a fascist, one of the best things they can do is muddy the waters. Fascists love confusion about what they are. You're never not going to deal with this problem.
