Jump To Comment: 1 2 3I reached the same conclusion several days ago. I've been posting to NYCIndymedia for months. The posts from a few right wingers who troll the board, which is the same in tenor as most, if not all, of the corporate U.S. media, I came to this conclusion last week. I started referring to these right-wingers as fascists, as I do believe it is a more appropriate term than conservative, or right-wing. Somewhere along the line, many have clearly crossed the line from conservatism into fascistic thinking.
IN the USA the democrats aren´t.
And the republicans aren´t either.
Q.E.D.
But the USA has loads of anarchists so don´t worry about a thing.
& guess what!
China has loads of archists too.
