I didn't "poo poo" it and it's not a defense of Islamism. In fact, I sympathize with historical fascism to a certain extent. They had anti-modern and anti-liberal values that I admire. What I'm saying is that when we broaden terms to this extent they lose their meaning. Simply put: Islamists aren't modern enough to be fascists. Fascism happened in a particular place at a particular time. It represented an attempt to come to terms with modernity. The definition of fascism you offer is incredibly vague and lacks any historical, cultural and political context. At that point, who isn't a fascist? You could apply the term across the ages in a myriad of circumstances. If you like anachronisms and simplistic jargon than go for it but that's just not for me.

Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

Stupid or crazy, "maybe"? Gee, thanks a lot! I like you too.
Now on to the quote within your post, which author is on my Ignore List for the obvious reason that he doesn't provide information, he simply denies whatever he wishes and pretends some sort of victory.
The number 670 million is not "MY" number. It was provided by the author of the article. So if it's three or four times too high, it's still outrageous and indicates the fascist nature of Islam.
Assuming the number is accurate or even underestimated what makes it fascist? You aren't showing approval of radical Islam by refusing to apply an anachronistic and inappropriate label to it. Let's say radical Islam will destroy the world and end life as we know it. Still not fascism.

Just because fascism is prevalent doesn't mean it loses its meaning when it's widely applied.
The argument that fascism is an ideology of the right is false. It is any ideology which seeks to employ the power of government to enforce.
As such, there are fascists all over. In fact, it appears to me that only those who abhor Government aren't.
As we all know, they are few.

Religion has always been a tool used for oppression and violence.
Thankfully most adherents to any religion practice in peace.
So letting in more mooslums will somehow calm the hate they have for Western ways?
What is there excuse in Europe as they are being let in by the droves and all they can do is demnd more money and people to rape?
Can you answer those in a sensible way or just call me an islamaphobe?
