He basically follows the same overly religious Conservative rhetoric as Kirk and he tries to speak 10x faster than everyone else to make himself appear more intelligent than he actually is.

In the West, the word ‘Nazi’ and ‘fascist’ carries a lot more baggage than ‘communist’. Don’t believe me? I challenge someone to come forward and say they’d rather the stigma of being publicly called a ‘commie’ than being a labeled a ‘Nazi’. As a society, we haven’t really come to terms with horrors perpetuated by 20th century communism as we have with fascism. If you admire Hitler or Mussolini, you’re genuinely unhinged but you will get people trotting out the line ‘it’s not real socialism/communism’ when discussing the USSR.

In the run up to the election there was plenty of mainstream news channels denouncing Trump, his rallies and by extension his supporters ‘fascist-like’, ‘neo-Nazi’ and so on.

Do you think he was wrong to release those who attacked the Capitol?

Exactly how I'd describe Shapiro. He's so smug, too!

He publicly admits that he was bullied at school which I suspect is why he's such a bellend as he clearly has a lot of unresolved deep-seeded issues and has a giant chip on his shoulder as a result.

Hence why he now spends his life cherry picking people who are less knowledgeable than him to debate with on various topics to make himself feel validated.

It's quite sad really.

Let’s stay on topic please and whilst it’s something I disagree with, it doesn’t make Trump a neo-Nazi or fascist.

You can’t seriously say you’re going to crack down on political violence after pardoning those you’ve essentially committed domestic terrorism. Until this sort of hypocrisy stops from both sides there it’ll continue.

Two quick points:

There's some reasonable stuff here, but do you understand the difference between socialism and communism? If you're struggling with that (and you are if you think they're the same thing) then your point about Russia doesn't entirely make sense.

Secondly, regarding Trump supporters being described as fascist in outlook: I hate to point it out to you, but at least some of them are - particularly a section of the people that tried to reverse the results of a democratic election. Are we supposed to avoid saying it because it might hurt their feelings?

No, what makes Trump a fascist is his words and actions.
