Except the definition of "fascist" is not "helps fascists." You can make a political alliance with someone without sharing their ideology. (Note: that doesn't mean it's okay to help fascists, but doesn't make one a fascist, either.)That's it? That's your r ENTIRE basis for Trump being a liberal? Guess what? By using your defenition, EVERYONE would be a fucking liberal, even the commies you love, since most commie countries still engaged in MARKET TRADE.
A) Free trade =/= capitalism
B) It's not "my" definition, it's that actual ideological definition of the term. Just because Americans love to fuck up and misuse political terminology doesn't mean it's okay.
C) When did I ever say I "love commies"? I'm a libsoc, I hate authoritarian socialism as much as I hate capitalism. Though, I do think it's pretty hilarious how you appear to be completely incapable of disagreeing with someone without calling them a fascist/commie. If you're not going to engage in good faith, then please fuck off.
