Hey man, let's take some poorly written beat poetry and put it over mediocre guitar compositions. Then we can take a talented keyboardist but make him play the shittiest sounding electric organ. And we can make sure the recording makes it all sound like a cat and some tin cans in a dryer.

I might be out of the loop - is this a known fascist, a public figure whose politics we know?

Either way, he is a Master Sargent in the US Marine Corp. He took an oath to defend the Constitution and not a single person or party. His power is bestowed by the people he is sworn to serve. If he is wearing that uniform with honor, that uniform is most definitely anti-fascist.

He is in the article and mentioned as a lefty, but just absent from the article's title. I agree, just say "one out of 40" and you still make your point.

E.B. Farnum from Deadwood (the HBO show, anyway. Who knows what he was like in real life?)
