Why do some get to decide the lives of others? That sounds like fascism.

Um.. i think you kind of stumbled right on the reason why there are warehouses on fire right now.

You were just praising a fascist movie. Step back.

On one hand you’re like, “burn the warehouses! forget out the suffering it causes other poor working class people who don’t want to burn warehouses”

And on the other hand you’re saying, “don’t burn corporate buildings because project mayhem (a fictional group) is fascist”

Allow yourself to live in a world where things can both be wrong and right. Otherwise you just sound like a confused hypocrite.

Nope. On one hand I'm saying "don't take inspiration from a fascist movie".

On the other hand I'm saying "working class revolution is a good thing and will require violence"

Two completely different statements if you understand what words mean. But one conversation will not fix a lifetime of miseducation so continue to believe what you believe.

You want a say in the decisions? Participate in change.

That sounds pretty fascist to me.
