U of Calgary says you're 'pro-Russian' if you promote "a specific mistrust of Canada’s Liberal government, & especially of Prime Minister Trudeau", criticize NATO expansion or say the Ukrainian gov (which banned opposition media & political parties) is "facist" (twitter.com)

it is simply one of their word for designating enemies

It is Mussolini's word.

Everything Within the State, Nothing Against the State, Nothing Outside the State.

How has accusing the left of being the real fascists/racists/etc been working out for the last 80 years? Has it given you the social prestige from shitlibs that you so desire?

Allowing defunct 20th century ideologies, that were peculiar to a specific time, place and peoples, to haunt the current discourse will forever doom us. Orwell said the word fascism was meaningless by the mid 1930s:

It will be seen that, as used, the word ‘Fascism’ is almost entirely meaningless. In conversation, of course, it is used even more wildly than in print. I have heard it applied to farmers, shopkeepers, Social Credit, corporal punishment, fox-hunting, bull-fighting, the 1922 Committee, the 1941 Committee, Kipling, Gandhi, Chiang Kai-Shek, homosexuality, Priestley's broadcasts, Youth Hostels, astrology, women, dogs and I do not know what else... Except for the relatively small number of Fascist sympathizers, almost any English person would accept ‘bully’ as a synonym for ‘Fascist’. That is about as near to a definition as this much-abused word has come.

Paul Gottfried's Fascism Career Of A Concept is the definitive work on the topic if you actually care to understand it:

Fascists were on the Right by virtue of having opposed the Left in theory and practice, but that was not the same as standing for a past that was already in decline. Fascists were not linked to any one social class and moved back and forth, as in Italy, when they tried to satisfy followers from varied social backgrounds. Finally, fascism was a situational rather than a theoretical movement. Unlike the Marxists, fascists did not claim to be teaching a scientific form of socialism held together by historical and economic laws.

Or you can continue working within the leftist frame by declaring yourself the real antifa and get steam rolled anyways. The shitlibs will never accept you.

Huh?

Why on earth you would you think I would want 'social prestige' from people I'm calling fascists?

I simply want them hammered into the ground. With air strikes, if possible.

Because you are appealing to shitlib sensibilities by framing yourself as the real antifascist, which has been the official regime ideology since the 30s.

framing yourself as the real antifascist

I'm actually just anti-totalitarian. I would glass china tomorrow if it were in my power to do so.
