Fascism is "extreme right-wing, authoritarian, or intolerant views or practice."
I can see how strongly held views might lead one to exaggeration, but I don't think hyperbole lends anyone's position much authority.
- D9u 13y ago"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism because it is the merger of state and corporate power." - Benito Mussolini. Your definition is a new interpretation, and is only one of many forms of fascism. I'll continue to adhere to the definition which predates the internet, Wikipedia, and the other sources which have chosen to ignore the words of the father of modern fascism. Ergo, The USA is, arguably, the epitome of a fascist nation. I'm not exaggerating at all. http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article7260.htm http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article7260.htm
