The Republican use of the “fascist” accusation is entirely about muddying the waters to imply it’s just meaningless political noise. Same way “fake news” followed people rightfully pointing out that conservatives were getting actual fake news.
Or the GQO calling peaceful protests about Gaza insurrections and exactly the same as Jan 6th. Fascism needs to muddy the waters to drum up as much support as possible. Keep people dumb and angry.
They did the same thing about BLM and J6 - saying J6 was just peaceful protest, mocking what was said about BLM - which actually had 93% peaceful protests (a stat they ridicule, of course - and of course ignore all the agent provocateurs that instigated violence at BLM marches).

Hammer man, at that first riot. Never saw what happened with that guy.
Umbrella man
Not who you’re talking about, just another example.
Maybe it was that guy and I confused his glass breakingntool with his bad weather accessory.
Could be. I just assumed there was more than one provocateur and you were talking about a different guy.
