Fascists? I know there is a difference as usual...we are not Communists, but they are Fascist, so as usual we'll be telling the truth while they stretch it...

Most people on the street couldn't give you a quick/accurate definition if they had to.
The same applies to "communist" but at least with "communist" there is a strong gut reaction in most people telling them that they do not want to be one.

6. Technically I like playing by marquis de queensberry rules |

But lately and more and more frequently I am thinking if the brown shirt fits let them wear it.
