The Misused Word Of The Day For Today Is: ‘Fascist’

A lot of people in today’s time apparently fail to realize that there is a very specific definition for fascism, none of which relate to The Man, or not at least as we know The Man in the United States today. Nor is it a right wing ideologue who dumps verbal diarrhea on a 24 hour cable “news” show. Also, a cop beating up a demonstrator is not a fascist. That cop is someone who deserves neither rank nor freedom, perhaps, but not a fascist. To borrow a little from Wikipedia:

Fascists believe that a nation is an organic community that requires strong leadership, singular collective identity, and the will and ability to commit violence and wage war in order to keep the nation strong.
