That's kinda what I had in the back of my mind, but I like to be careful with my terminology... it's like juggling with knives.
Well lets put it like this: By the terms that 'banning political parties' is fascism, then revolution itself is fascist.
More info for the noob here. Cheers.
Yes. Banning of political parties. AntiFascists have banned fascist parties as well, so...
I agree, though it depends how exactly you block off enemy's opinions. Are we talking about, for example, banning political parties though? Some people wouldn't mind taking it to the extreme, like some kind of concentration camp for fascists/Nazis lol.
Yeah, I think that mindset is completely idiotic. For example, was Stalin a Fascist? No. In 1936, were the Catalans fascists? No. Was George Washington a Fascist? No. Banning of political ideologies is not fascist. It is a temporary measure that must be taken shortly after a revolution.
Yeah, but this is where the whole "antifa is fascism" crap comes in.
Well, I hear you. But there has never been a revolution in which the other ideology was silenced.
Ah, I see. I just like to be clear about stuff like this; I'm sure you understand how many "communists" like to use the left as a cover up for their 'do as I say' views.
That is correct. But I will be blunt: The banning of bourgeois/fascist ideologies.
