If you can't distinguish between the fascists and the every day people hoodwinked by them then we might as well just start gearing up for ACW 2. Because that's where this leads. Nobody is asking you to refrain from punching the actual Nazis. Just not to drive rural America into their arms with actual elitism. Because it's going to be people like me and my friends who have to go in there and risk our lives to deprogram the "hillbilly trash" who look like shit but are actually extremely good at duct tape engineering and making shit explode.

If I could I would handcuff you together until you figured out you have the exact same core desires of a sane government, freedom, and enough income to feed your family.

I can and do, which is why I use the term fascists/fascist supporters. The everyday people who have been hoodwinked are the supporters. Trump, Vance, DeSantis, etc are the outright fascists. If I wasn't making that distinction I'd just call them all fascists and be done with it.

Sure. That's exactly the message you send when you call them trash.
