I didn't say he was a nonviolent pacifist. I asked how you thought that machine killed fascists. I know what Guthrie thought should happen to fascists. I also know he applied the term much more selectively than people here.
I think you'd be surprised by who Guthrie applied that term to. The problem nowadays is that so many elements of fascism have been normalized, that some people think you have to be literally Hitler to qualify.
No I wouldn't. It's not like I'm basing everything I know off of him off of that one song that he was universally famous for. He's got quite a catalog and I've listened to most of it . But I wouldn't expect a ML to be honest about it either. So there's that. When your answer to everything is Revolution or acceleration. Good things don't happen.
I don't have any idea what your deal is. Have a nice evening.
You know exactly why. That's why you're getting quiet. But have a nice day yourself.
