Okay, I'll give you that something being debatable does not make it subjective.

The objective correctness of Marxism is debatable, as has been done for decades now, by definition making it subjective.

Nah, not sure what communities you've been hanging out at

Ah, I misunderstood you then. I thought you mean the Reddit folks hating Joe Rogan less than the Lemmy folks hate Joe Organ.

Even so, Joe Rogan is a person they hate ideologically, while Reddit is a platform they liked, but got abused by people to the point of them not liking it.

Ahhh that clears up a lot. Still, I wouldn't be surprised. One is a person they hate ideologically, another is a platform they liked back in the day but just has gone into the wrong direction.

I took a better look at it. I understand that the definition of fascism is an academic question that has been discussed about a lot. However, that also means you shouldn't just trust one person that researched it. The text explicitly states that (paraphrasing) "it should be looked at from the left", which is just a confession of the definition being pretty biased. Therefor, the claim in the text about (paraphrasing) "his definition becoming the new consensus" is pretty flawed. It is true the word is getting used more and more like this by leftists, but that doesn't make it a consensus.

In one paragraph he says (paraphrasing) "the specific flavor is not important, the inherent ideology is ultranationalism with wanting to go back to a mythological past".

I reject this. What he is describing is literally just ultranationalism/ethno-nationalism. That's literally how he describes it himself. That's just like me saying "yeah stalinism in today's day and age is very impractical and you won't see it like this today, so in order to be able to use the term, we need to look at it broader, and at it's core, their ideology is ultra-socialist with the focus on rapid industrialization. Therefor, we should call social-democracts stalinists, because they share the same core ideology.

Wtf? If you read that with some critical thinking you'll understand why his definition is not the concensus at all.

You can't just pick and choose definitions of a word. When you use a word, the most common definition of it is how you will be understood (depending on context). Otherwise I could say that poop is worth a lot and then say that poop means gold.

Moreover, sadly, many people do not even have the slightest idea of what certain ideologies are called. They don't get further than "fascism bad nazi bad communism bad" without being able to make a distinction. This allows for easy manipulation of the masses by defaming anything you don't like as one of these things. That's all it is.

If you use a word that you don't entirely understand, research the word, and if necessary, explain how you understand the word. Allows for good-fath discussions. Do not misrepresent it.

People are way more left-leaning over here than there.

I already mentioned multiple times that the assumption that I'm christian is presumptuous.

Well duh, they are too stupid for that.

They will definitely kill the other mouse if that means they'll survive instead.

Why are you surprised by Lemmy hating Joe Rogan more than Reddit?
