I think it's really interesting that you just stopped reading the moment the article challenged your existing political beliefs.
That was very close-minded of you to abandon the article the very moment it forced you to think outside of the narrow box you're used to thinking in.
And for the record, Trump is bringing Fascism to America, Social Media is helping his cause to do so, and Mark Zuckerberg personally plans to profit from it if he can.
If that reality bothers you, it should, because, again: Fascism is on the rise in America...
Or it could be that you just don't like your political views referred to as "fascism", but if you share Trump's political views, they are demonstrably fascist views, and therefore it is literally fascism.
If you don't like fascism, stop making excuses for it. If you do like fascism, stop complaining that people judge you for it - you deserve the judgement.

There's enough bad in what Trump says (not as much in what he manages to do, and so far at least his foreign policy is... not great, but better than the dumpster fire that other candidate oversaw).

- cabaalis 7y ago> forced you to think outside of the narrow box you're used to thinking in. That's quite insulting, as you don't know the first thing about me or my method of thinking.
