If your liberal democracy puts you into a mental health ward or gulag for your opinion about the system it’s not a liberal democracy.

No True Scotsmen ey?

ML states OTOH really like to do that.

Bold claim; back it up.

There’s an inherent totalitarianism to them, they demand that everyone thinks precisely like some centralised decision organ decides

Well this is just a factually untrue caricature.

and you tankies will even defend that.

I’m not going to defend something that isn’t even true.

Thought itself is controlled

You’ve watched too many sci-fi movies.

That kind of monopolisation of the prerogative of interpretation is a practical sign of fascism, once it is coalesced.

Interesting theory; what do you base it on?

The Ur-fascism points are merely crystallisation points.

No it isn’t.

The very point that you can type all that in (presumably) a liberal democracy without getting disappeared means that you’re not living under fascism.

Never said I was; you were the one who articulated a definition of fascism that included liberal democracies.

It’s really something, MLs having so shit takes that you make me defend liberal democracies.

Lol, it doesn’t take much.
