    That’s something I hate in place like these, lately: you’re either a good boy if you do what I think it’s right or you’re an evil fascist if you dare not to follow “the right path”. People seem to forget that there are a lot of shades of grey between black and white.

      It’s actual fascism.

      Not the modern made up diatribe about fascism.

      The fasces is a bundle with an axe - anyone outside the bundle gets chopped. That’s actual fascism. It’s what both the far left and far right proscribe and (correctly) accuse the other of doing.

      Forget sides, forget the bundle. Just be a good person and keep your own ethical code.
