John Thornton:
>If I can't call the cops "bloody fascists" when they harrass me what
fun would that be?<

that's true. there's some catharsis, self-therapy, in name-calling.

then there's magical thinking: if we call some of Bush's policies (or
US policies) "fascist," it can slow the (assumed) trend toward
fascism.

then we could take Luxemburg's "socialism or barbarism" literally.
Since we don't have socialism, it must be barbarism (fascism).
