We should be outraged by this GOP suggestion to 'purge' the FBI

25. We no longer need to debate whether the GOP is fascist.

Throughout modern political history, there have been some democrats who would accuse conservatives of being fascist, and other democrats who would object that this was going too far, painting with too broad and dark a brush, and insulting the great majority of conservative citizens who still believed in constitutional democracy. But now, thanks to Trump, we know that the GOP is in fact riddled with actual fascists. In fact, we can now see plainly exactly which republicans are fascist and which are not. And the proportions between the two camps are a lot more even than the more optimistic among us were willing to believe.
