However, <strong>today the accusation of being \"extreme right\" has become something mutant<\/strong>, to such an extent that it is very possible that today you will be considered a democrat and tomorrow a fascist without having changed any of your beliefs. opinions.<\/p>\n<p><big>If machismo is left-wing, rejecting it makes you a fascist<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Let's look at some examples. <strong>One of the usual ingredients to be identified as a fascist was being a sexist.<\/strong> Fascism was supposed to be an ideology that wanted to discriminate against women, or so the left said. However, a few days ago, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rtve.es\/noticias\/20240205\/sanchez-zorra-eurovision-fachosfera-hubiera-gustado-mas-cara-sol\/15957373.shtml\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the socialist Pedro S\u00e1nchez associated being a \"facha\" (fascista) with the fact that you don't like a song described as \"sexist\"<\/a> by feminist organizations: <em>\"<strong>to me I like these types of songs better<\/strong>\"<\/em>said the president of the Spanish government. So there's nothing more to say: <strong>if a left-wing politician likes a sexist song, fascists are those who don't like the song<\/strong>, starting with many left-wing feminists.<\/p>\n<p><big>Reject mass immigration, no but yes<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Another example. For some years now, <strong>you were accused of being a fascist if you thought that mass immigration could not be allowed<\/strong>. To that qualifier, the left usually added others such as racist and xenophobic. However, a few months ago <a href=\"https:\/\/www.france24.com\/es\/europa\/20231025-alemania-presenta-medidas-para-expulsar-migrantes-m%C3%A1s-r%C3%A1pido-por-medio-de-deportaciones\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">the leftist German government proposed limiting immigration and accelerating deportations<\/a> of illegal immigrants. So <strong>now you are only a fascist if you defend that same thing but you are not a German socialist<\/strong>, it can be deduced.<\/p>\n<p><big>When fascist is not to repress but to protest<\/big><\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, <strong>the left has also associated fascism with the repression of labor protests<\/strong>, especially those of those who do the hardest and most thankless jobs. However, yesterday <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TvPlataforma\/status\/1754973624346272203\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TVE, a channel controlled by S\u00e1nchez's leftist government, linked the farmers with the \"far right\"<\/a> for protesting against increasingly abusive regulations and against the unfair competition that is ruining our primary sector. <strong>So now the fascist thing is not to repress, but to protest<\/strong>, because the left rules and what you are supposed to do is shut up and obey.<\/p>\n<p><big>Mandela was a fascist and Apartheid was progressive<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Likewise, <strong>the racist Apartheid regime in South Africa has often been associated with fascism<\/strong>, due to its discriminatory treatment towards the black population of that country. However, very often <strong>the Spanish left labels those who defend linguistic freedom as fascists<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outono.net\/elentir\/2021\/12\/12\/las-similitudes-entre-el-regimen-linguistico-del-apartheid-de-sudafrica-y-el-de-cataluna\/\">which is the same thing that the leftist Nelson Mandela established in South Africa<\/a> after the fall of Apartheid regime. So, if he lived today and asked for the same thing for Catalonia, <strong>now the fascist would be Mandela because his linguistic model was one of freedom of choice<\/strong>, something that the left and its separatist allies do not admit, which they consider to be Democratic is the imposition of a language.<\/p>\n<p><big>Antisemitism, the new antifascism<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Another element that was closely associated with classical fascism was <strong>anti-Semitism<\/strong>, especially with Nazism, which perpetrated a colossal genocide against the Jewish people. However, <strong>today much of the left exhibits atrocious antisemitism<\/strong>, which concentrates its hatred of the Jewish people in the State of Israel. <strong>This hatred is disguised as \"antizionism\" so that it sounds less bad<\/strong>, but in the end it is the same anti-Semitic garbage as always, with the difference that now anti-Semitism is fueled by the left.<\/p>\n<p><big>Reject penal privileges, a fascist thing<\/big><\/p>\n<p>Finally, before the general elections of July 2023, <strong>in Spain it was democratic to believe that an amnesty was incompatible with the Constitution<\/strong>, because it is unacceptable that the equality of all before the law is violated to grant privileges penalties to some. <strong>That changed when S\u00e1nchez needed the support of the separatists who demanded an amnesty<\/strong>, separatists who have been convicted of very serious crimes, including corruption crimes, and who in some cases are being investigated for terrorism. <strong>Now they call you a fascist if you reject those privileges and defend equality before the law <\/strong>, because that is against the interests of the left.<\/p>\n<p><big>There is only one rule to not be a fascist: obey the left-wing<\/big><\/p>\n<p>It has been many years since <strong>classical fascism disappeared<\/strong>, happily defeated in the World War II. Today fascism is a residual phenomenon and is limited to extra-parliamentary groups. <strong>Today what is labeled \"fascism\" is everything that makes the left uncomfortable<\/strong>, even if it is fully democratic and even if what is really contrary to freedoms and human rights is precisely what the left defends.<\/p>\n<p>Basically, <strong>today in order not to be labeled a \"fascist\" you have to do what the left tells you every day, even if that means sudden and inexplicable changes of opinion<\/strong> and adopt absurd, irrational and inappropriate approaches. in a democratic society. Under these conditions, <strong>it is normal that more and more people care little about being accused of being \"fascist\" by a stupid, irrational and intolerant left<\/strong>, which only uses that adjective to point out, silence and criminalize everyone. those who oppose him.<\/p>\n<p>---<\/p>\n<p><small>Image: frame of 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers' (1978).<\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There was a time when it seemed relatively easy to identify a fascist.
