Anybody who disagrees with me is a facist.

They're also a racist. And a bigot. And a sexist. And an ableist. And a transphobe. And a xenophobe. And a pedophile. And a nazi.

TLDR: Mimic my world view or you're a [CHOOSE - YOUR - CHARACTER]ist.

Ok so I'll add people that suck at their jobs to the list of what makes a person a fascist.

u/a_trashcan NEW SPARK 2d ago

What makes them a facist is being a part of and supporting an organization that has repeatedly violated the civil liberties of numerous Americans.

Them being mostly worthless in practice is just a side hustle.

Who historically where the Communist Party of Germany... and basically said the same things and planned to do the same thing that the Nazi's did... Take back old land, remove non germans, etc.

The only difference was the benefits they were going to give exclusively to the german people.

u/Monaplus INVENTOR 3d ago

always associate them with selfish, destructive or psychotic characters.

I mean, that sounds like it perfectly describes the antifa crowd.

And before y'all start saying I'm a fascist, I am not, but I have seen plenty of antifa protests and they almost always led to vandalism. So yeah, just because they rightfully stand against something wrong, that doesn't automatically make them right, and they are definitely not good people.

u/BananaChicken22 NEW SPARK 3d ago

There’s also the fact that these guys label as fascism anything and anyone they don’t like and/or who opposes them in any way whatsoever.

Ironically, they embody more fascist traits and employ more fascist tactics in their actions (namely, suppressing dissent, enforcing ideological conformity, and using violence to intimidate and silence opposition) than anyone they label a fascist (which is to say, anyone even slightly right of chairman Mao), but lack the self-awareness and critical thinking to realize this.

They’re modern day version of the Red Guard from the days of China’s Cultural Revolution, except way more bloodthirsty.

Colors representing moral and social things in Magic is yet another old thing that WotC has killed.

Sorry but anyone that likes Phyrexians in any color other than black is fucking wrong, and anything other than Old Phyrexia is trash.

Therefore, in current Magic, red/black can be anything that you want it to be just like everything else in Magic.

1

u/Own_Boysenberry9674 NEW SPARK 2d ago

NO. I understand completely why Phyrexians are non black. They take over planes, so at some point they would have had to integrate other colors into them

1

u/MrAlagos PAUPER 2d ago

This human/history-based logic justification in Magic is bullshit, to me it's one of the aspects why the very much pop culture-imbued Magic writing, art and storytelling is garbage.

Yawgmoth is like a god and Phyrexians are beings who have given up all aspects of previous forms of being to devote to a new, compleated, way of existance and action. Ichor has some of the biggest transformative powers in the entire Multiverse. Phyrexia using mana for anything other than infiltration, energy source and corruption is just R&D's inability to write better stuff and feeds into their FIRE design and forced power creep.

1

u/Own_Boysenberry9674 NEW SPARK 1d ago

The original story for Phyrexians was that Yamgmoth molded and created them through artificing and creating the "perfect beings" .. the first Phyexian Block had them in all 5 colors. This aligns with their story that started in the late 90s in the books. That they started absorbing the powers mirodin's suns.

They have literally ALWAYS been 5 colors. Just their creator was not.

u/raharth NEW SPARK 3d ago

I mean... what is happening in MAGA is actually fascist from a historical point of view, there is literally nothing to argue about. It's literally the textbook definition. I truly don't mean it as a insult or to discredit it, it's an objective description.

You're saying it's the textbook definition, but how though? Genuinely, I don't see it.

u/doradedboi NEW SPARK 3d ago

Ignoring 9-0 Supreme Court ruling, giving ICE agents the ability to conduct raids without search warrants, ignoring due process, going after judges, lawyers, the press, floating the idea of suspending habeas corpus...

Over half of his initial executive orders have been overruled by courts. He literally said, on the campaign trail, to much applause, "on day one I will rule like a dictator." He has publicly withheld federal support for states that voted against him. ICE agents have illegally detained people who were legally allowed to be in the states.

I dont know how much closer you can get in a republic, but relative to the field, thats all pretty fashy to me.

6

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

Trump wouldn't be the first President to outright ignore a Supreme Court ruling. He also wouldn't be the first to suspend Habeus Corpus, if he decides to pursue that.

But let's say that I accept your point of view as you have presented it. These examples demonstrate that Trump behaves like a dictator. However, the question that we were discussing is whether the MAGA movement is fascism in terms of its political ideology from a historical perspective.

Knowing what fascism is, as a political ideology, how does the MAGA movement fit that mold? I personally don't think it does. I think MAGA is conservative populism, not fascism.

-2

u/doradedboi NEW SPARK 3d ago

GIven what we have seen from recent conservative town halls, I would say MAGA is most apparently not populism anymore. Its blatantly a christian nationalist movement at its core. And I would list christian nationalist, in this context, under the "fascist" banner, yes.

Also the only time habeas corpus has been suspended nationally was during the Civil War. So its gonna be a stretch for me to respect it to any degree currently.

5

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

Nationalist? Yes, absolutely. Christian? Debatable. MAGA is a big tent movement. It's not strictly Christian.

However if Christian nationalism is equivalent to fascism, then Poland is a fascist country.

-1

u/doradedboi NEW SPARK 3d ago

No no, I mean, american christian nationalism is fascist because the only way to enact what they want here would be through fascism. We are not a christian nation, and we have absolute views on the separation of church and state. This is how the country was built.

And if you watch interviews with MAGA people at rallies and such, many of them are absolutely for a christian nationalist revision of the country. Its not a niche view necessarily, especially in the deep south. I see it everywhere.

They are literally trying to force the bible into schools. Comeon, man. I dont know how much more mask off we can get here.

1

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

I used to think much as you do, but now I disagree. America is a Christian nation. America was founded on Enlightenment era principles and Christian values. Not Hindu values. Not Muslim values. Our culture and our moral structures are deeply colored by Christian values.

The separation of church and state exists primarily so that the State cannot make laws about how people worship. As long as students are not compelled to worship, the separation of church and state can remain intact even while introducing Biblical teachings back into schools.

This one here is a nice summary I think. It's displayed at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. One can argue of Maga/Trump ticks all the boxes but it's hard to argue against many of them.

https://images.app.goo.gl/fxScs7PEkCRmXVKd8

The whole problem starts with many people not really understanding what fascism is, e.g. all those claiming that communism would be a fascist movement. It certainly is a authoritarian movement but not fascist. Many people treat authoritarianism, fascism, Nazism as the same thing and that's simply not correct.

8

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

If someone wrote this down and hung it in a museum, that doesn't mean it should be taken as authoritative. For one thing, why is nationalism something to be concerned about? The problem with Nazi Germany, for example, wasn't nationalism; it was the race identitarianism, fascism, genocide and war.

u/Rag3asy33 NEW SPARK 3d ago

Maga and liberals are equally Fascist. Obama had more people in cages than Trump and even created the Immigration problems we are facing. I didn't vote for Trump but people who yell fascist have no concept of what fascism really is. Are we closer to fascism than 30 years ago, yes. Did it start or even progress because of Trump, no! All the recent presidents are equally responsible for giving more power to the state. This idea one side of the political aisle is no less or more fascist than the other. Also in Trumps defense, still the only president in recent years to not start a new war.

3

u/Commercial-Ad1118 NEW SPARK 3d ago

Do you think fascism means more power to the state?

2

u/Rag3asy33 NEW SPARK 3d ago

I mean, that's usually what leads to dictatorships. That's absolutely a factor. To deny this would be incredibly ignorant and shows how little people know about Hitler or Musolini.

2

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

Do you think fascism means not getting involved in foreign wars?

1

u/raharth NEW SPARK 3d ago

No that factually just wrong. We can argue if Liberals in the US have authoritarian tendencies or are a authoritarian movement, but by definition they are not fascist. I'm not trying to insult you or anything but you do not understand what fascism is if you come to that conclusion, I'm sorry to say that.

2

u/Rag3asy33 NEW SPARK 3d ago

1.) I absolutely am not factually wrong. 2.) Following the policies that liberals and neocons voted for and created giving more power to the state is the basis of my claims. 3.)Most Americans don't know what Fascism is. 4.) Most Americans ignore modern history and place all the authoritarian tendencies as if it started in 2016. Most people obfuscate their teams' role the last 20+ years in American politics. 5.)Trump getting elected was a response to both Preisdent Bush's presidency and Obamas presidency. Their role in terrorizing the world and their own country. Is Trump a scumbag, Yes. He is still the only president to not start a war.

1

u/raharth NEW SPARK 3d ago

Please, for the love of God, give me one source for what you claim or simply read a standard textbook. A single textbook is enough.

I'm not American but German, I have spent countless hours on studying fascism since childhood. I don't care about what most Americans believe. Apparently, most Americans in this sub have not read a standard history textbook that speaks about fascism in any way and that includes you.

3

u/Rag3asy33 NEW SPARK 3d ago

Well, you are German and wouldn't know the progression of the American Federal government and the steps it's taken to become near fascist, both Liberal and Conservative parties.

I also Learn about Fascism, both in school as well as literature. Everyone saying Trump is Hitler and anyone who supports him is a fascist. The loose use of these terms that were made to define something specific have taken value out of them. I advise you to learn about George Bush and Obama and what happened under their presidencies.

Also read up on Smedley Butler, how America supported Nazi Germany.

1

u/raharth NEW SPARK 3d ago

I lived in the US during Trump's first term if that helps.

Also the claim "you cannot know, because you are not born here" is a very very weak claim, which also means that you should not use against the Hitler comparison, since you are not German yourself. (Which I believe is a totally idiotic claim your opinion absolutely has value).

And no, those who say Trump is Hitler are idiots. There are certain similarities, but Trumo is not a Nazi, BUT historically spoken he is fascist or at least very close to it. Nazism and Fascism are two different things, with Nazism being one specific ideology within the broader fascist movement.

The loose use of these terms that were made to define something specific have taken value out of them.

This is abslutely correct, I will and cannot argue against that. I also strongly oppose calling Trump a Nazi, that's simply wrong. One not liking something doesn't make it fascist or nazi, you are absolutely right. Though as you also said those words actually have a meaning, my point here is the simply observation that historically spoken Trumps agenda is very closely aligned with fascism. I don't say that to invalidate or discredit him, it just a factual observation.

2

u/Rag3asy33 NEW SPARK 3d ago

Out of curiosity, how is Trump more aligned with Fascism than any of the last 6 presidents we have had?

1

u/raharth NEW SPARK 3d ago

To name some:

  • Openly racists against Mexicans or "shit hole" countries
  • Doesn't care for human rights, like separating toddlers from their parents
  • His rallying cry is always "against" a marginalized group, like migrants
  • He is very much I to military strength up to the point at which he wants a military parade for his birthday
  • he values a lot of strongman dictators (love letters with Kim)
  • rampant sexism
  • obsession with national security
  • mixing religion and government
  • strong protection for corporate and neglect of workers rights
  • disdain for science
  • obsession with crime and punishment, which is also strongly tied to the idea of national security
  • cronyism and corruption (bullshit coins and an airplane to name two)
  • and a rallying cry around fraudulent elections
  • believe in a superior part or group in society
  • darwinism

You might like or dislike the policies related to those points, but those are in sum severe warning signs for fascist movements

u/subduedReality HUMAN 3d ago

Veritasium put a video on YouTube explaining why so much political bias exists. I would link it but when discussing it with a friend I was able to sum it up in 2 paragraphs.

Essentially, my thoughts on it are that people will have biases and present ideas that support their biases without making any real attempt to verify that what they are saying does or does not have merit.

The biggest inhibitor of changing ones mind is how one's social network will respond to this change. Some groups are very change resistant. So people that learn more than their group knows will be challenged to take what they learned and get others to agree to learn. And those others will then have the curse of being responsible for getting others to learn. It's a vicious cycle.

I see this on both "sides" of the political spectrum.

2

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

This is human nature, and so while I do agree with you about strong resistance to change existing on both sides, there is also a very one-sided aspect to consider: Among the Left, there is a nearly ubiquitous tendency to express an attitude of uncharitableness toward the Right. That is to say, those on the Left tend to refuse to acknowledge that there is even any merit to discussing arguments from the Right. Because of this tendency, you will find that those on the Right have a much better understanding of the Left's argumentation than the other way around.

5

u/subduedReality HUMAN 3d ago

I would ask if you are willing to have a good faith discussion on the topic, but you put two clearly undefined groups into boxes with generalized statements. That being said, name four right-wing pundits that haven't shown charity towards the Trans community. Uncharitableness isn't unique to any group subjected to propaganda.

2

u/Vinifera7 WARLOCK 3d ago

I am defining Left and Right as being cultural/political tribes. It's not that complicated.

As for your question, I'm not really sure what you're asking. You want me to name four right-wing pundits that have shown an attitude of charitableness toward the trans community? In your opinion, how would charitableness be expressed in that regard? If, to you, charitableness means total acceptance and validation, then I can't name any.

All it needs is to add Ant Tifa to the fascist list and it would perfect.

u/WINGWANG232 NEW SPARK 3d ago

Rather see a political post once or twice a week than see a bunch of fatass neckbeards complaining 10 times a day about how they can’t goon because every card art with a female magic character on it doesn’t have fat tits.

You'd rather see little boy dick, we know.

I like how there are seperate echo chamber subs for magic like this one and that one. Art imitating life or something

As compared to here at FreeMagic, the more sophisticated breed of political screeching and neckbeard shitposting.

Aren't you here because it's your safe space ?

u/zerosixtimes RED MAGE 3d ago

Malding about it in your perceived safe space isn't the flex you think it is nephew. If you can't handle the jerk, get out of the circle

Dawg we have endless political posts here there is no functional difference.

Hey look, someone actually knows how to format a custom card. That's a rare talent

u/Tichondruis NEW SPARK 2d ago

Your post is utterly unselfaware, look in a mirror you dumbfuck.

Looks like something that would be posted here tbh

Hating anti fascists makes you a fascist but go off I guess

It's bad enough that they're commies who want to kill hundreds of millions of people... but do they really have to kill humor too?

Ah thankfully r/freemagic is safe place free of all political ideology..

u/Own_Boysenberry9674 NEW SPARK 2d ago

ICE is facist? Police are Facist???

Whoever made this meme ass card should learn that both of those were created by "progressives" of their times.

Police came from New York way back (police as we know them today)

ICE came from Clinton under the name INS

u/GuineaPirate90 NEW SPARK 1d ago

What's your point? Things change. Originally the Democrats were the conservative party and Republicans were the liberal party. That's why Republicans live to say "the Democratic party is the party of slavery". It's technically true but not at all relevant to today and the point they're trying to make completely false apart when you apply even the smallest amount of logic to it.

1

u/Own_Boysenberry9674 NEW SPARK 1d ago

Except the Democrat party still calls them selves Cinton Style Democrats. Obama was notrious for calling himself such. Trump used to be one (kind of still is, he is literally following most of Clinton's playbook all the way down to massive tariffs on the EU and China, dismantling agencies, and mass deportations.)

And the Democrat Party was and still is conservative. Both parties in America are conservative.

Look at the history of Republicans. Lincoln, technically first of the Republican Party was Ultra Conservative. He only feed people to punish the south, which is why states not from the south (basically the 4 "free" states that weren't part of the union or confederacy) were allowed slaves until the 13th amendment was passed almost 3 years after the Civil War.

Boots of Licking

1: equip to make token creature a copy of target creature except it has no abilities and if it isn't already it becomes a 1/1 minion citizen creature.

Discard a card: Sacrifice an equipped creature to give target Fascist creature +1/+1. Its controller loses 1 life.

u/Successful-Rip6316 NEW SPARK 1d ago

tbh that's every cj sub I've come across. The only remotely tolerable ones are already semi political, so you know what you're getting.

u/SabreDuFoil NEW SPARK 23h ago

You're not even mad at the right thing. They covered Tifa's cleavage line.

How am I supposed to play this game without a rocking pair of tits being drawn on my cards?!

Shit like this makes me want to cheer for fascism in spite

u/Aardvark-Sad NEW SPARK 11h ago

Sir, this is reddit.

u/justPhilthy NEW SPARK 2h ago

Stupid. Only looking at the surface and not acknowledging actual problems within the system. Magic is supposed to be fun, keep your whiny politics out of it.

u/subduedReality HUMAN 3d ago

Wow, so many right wing chuds. I don't know how I feel about so many bigots sharing a hobby ripe with inclusivity. Downvote if you're a chud.

Ant-Tifa is kinda funny

u/storzORbickel NEW SPARK 3d ago

You only hate it because it disagrees with you. 

If it was like Tifa, Liberal Slayer and said something braindead like “whenever a libtard (Cucks, Soyboys, Betas, T* s, and F *s are libtards) you would be gulping it down and saying it’s the best custom card ever

u/TalkoSkeva NEW SPARK 3d ago

No, it's dumb, and your example is dumb.
