How many board conservatives are willing to admit they support fascism?

Any honest conservatives here?

Um, how many "conservatives" (I prefer the phrase "white-wingers") are still here these days?

A few. 

Facism is a Liberal thing that we Conservatives do not support.

Why?  Please define "conservatives", and "honest conservatives" for me.  I may be one or the other or none.  I'm not sure the terms have the same meaning as in years or decades past, or as defined in KS, with any consistency.  I'm serious, not trying to be obtuse.  

Who's speech is California Berkely squashing?  We all know this answer, even as our Liberals lie about it.

Candy and Boiler, let's start with Google and Wikipedia's definition of Fascism. 

 

Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and race...

 

The two leading Republican candidates for the 2024 Presidential nomination are fascists. 95% of Republican elected officials unwaveringly support Trump who is a textbook case of a fascist strongman.

 

An honest Republican would admit the current Republican party as it is made up is a fascist party.  Then they would admit if they continue to support fascist Republican candidates they are helping to further the fascist agenda.

"Conservatives" arent winning Republican elections....Facists are.   

 

Most of the conservative Republicans from former adminstrations including the last one are speaking out against the facsits only to be stiffarmed by the general membership of that party.    People on this board might recognize some of those conservatives since they voted for them:  Mitt Romney, George Bush, Liz Cheney, JOhn Boehner, Mitch McConnell, ....and I could go on and on
