I am sure there are plenty of people who support the police beating up protestors. I’m pretty confident that the number of them who talk to their friends about “our boys in blue” when they’re not quoting a 1930s newsreel is in the single digits.
Calling you out for bad faith bullshit isn’t sympathizing with fascists. You’re not utilizing some novel discourse tactic.

I call this one the “Chewbacca Defense” – they seize on some logical leap that makes absolutely no sense (and for some reason this one often goes with expressing it really angrily, with insults). This one is a little hard to describe, but some examples are “I can’t be a shill, I had an account on Reddit” or this comment.
