    It is also taking the companies operations.

    It happened. Define 'reality'. Bet you can't.

    Nah. I think we would. You are still trying to toss this argument aside as well.

    It is not wrong.

    They are socialist. Fascism is socialism. So is communism. Fascism is just a step on the road to communism. You really should read the Communist Manifesto. You can find it here.

    Definition of reality: The world or the state of things as they actually exist, as opposed to an idealistic or notional idea of them. Instead you keep repeating your notional idea, pretend it is fact, fail to respond to reality and then march around the people sitting in the leftover chairs when the music stops and pretend it means you won.

    I've read the communism manifesto, fascism is not communism. At this point speaking with you is useless. I don't care that you refuse to recognize facts, literally I do not care.

    Fascism as an economy does not give ownership of everything to the government, so it is not communism or socialism. It really is that simple.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
    - -- Aristotle

    This is why I try not to use these words anymore. So many people just make up their own definitions, it's gotten to the point where they mean nothing.

    The antigovernment conspiring GOP has become America's sh!t party as the quality that other foreign and domestic enemies would prefer as in the type of sh!t they can relate to.
