Really??? The RNC is starting to call us "Fascists???

Rather than encouraging their dying base to get vaccinated, the official Republican National Committee stance is
that 700,000 pandemic deaths are nothing compared to the "EVIL" "UN-AMERICAN" "fascist" demand that
Americans pitch in to get us to herd immunity.

This goes back to "It takes one to know one", they are always projecting, time we started calling them Fascists.

Criminals do this all the time. It is a way to deflect and confuse.

"Liberal Fascism" has been a go-to all along for the PBs, 3%ers, & PP; like insisting Socialists are Nazis.

It says Socialism in the name, don't it?

If we're Fascists, and they're fascists, its a wash in the ears of the mushy middle. The term becomes meaningless.

If they blame Democrats, it’s pretty much a given it’s what they’ve been doing.
