The GOP hold on most of American radio seems pretty unshakable, but Democrats must get into the talk-radio game before ever more damage is done.

    You’re free to leave. Because blanket statements and false accusations might work in your favor elsewhere.

        Well, that didn’t take long.

        Bye!

        Oh, and America isn’t fascist. The only people that think it is are pseudo-intellectual socialists that have no fucking clue about anything.

          I dont think it is either, but heres the fucken thing all they said was that American fascism fucken predated radio and guess what the Confederacy was fascist. Sorry for making assumptions but your comment didnt leave much room for interpretation, learn to express yourself with word rather than using reactionary bullshit slogans.

            But America isn’t fascist. So they’re wrong. It doesn’t predate shit. The confederacy may have had tendencies leaning towards fascism, but the confederacy wasn’t America.

            So my point was that if they want to make ignorance-based blanket statements about about an entire country, they happen to be doing so about one that gives you the freedom to leave it.

            Maybe they should exercise that freedom.

              As far as I can tell based on the unspecific, generalized use of the terms by people across the political spectrum, “fascist” and “nazi” just mean someone or something with which someone disagrees or finds annoying, so under this much more nebulous definition, anyone and everything can be fascist.

              For instance you and your comment are fascist. See? It worked!

                I don’t deal in the bullshit flavor-of-the-week redefining of things. Fascism isn’t something that ever should be redefined. It’s a serious and incredibly harmful ideology that should not be joked about.

                I’d no sooner call someone a fascist where they clearly aren’t defined as one, than I would accuse someone of being a rapist that isn’t one.

                But then again, I’m an adult. And I know better.

              All they said was that US fascism arrived before radio. There isnt anything within their comment that indicates an opinion beyond that. They could be referring to anything from segreagation to the Confederacy to the southern colonies and their aristocracy. There isnt really any meat to their statement just the bare bones.

      The US? It’s not free to leave temporarily or permanently, no idea who lied to you. More importantly it’s conservatives like you that tend to give up instead of trying to make the world better.

        I’m a conservative now? Boy, you really do like making your assumptions, don’t you? I’m going to guess that you’re no stranger to accusing people of supporting genocide, right?

        Hilarious! Thanks for the laugh! Maybe check people’s comment history before making ignorant accusations and assumptions of others.

        And are you seriously suggesting that I am incapable of leaving America if I chose? Man… I should cancel my vacation plans to Ireland I guess.
