I missed some of your points because I made bad assumptions and overlooked some things.

I'm not surprised that at some point in time he would say he was pro-liberal. But the positions he argued for were in support of fascism. He didn't other just gay people. He othered Muslims. He has brought up the Jewish question. He is a fan of centralizing power. Not that centralizing a power by itself would be a strong indicator of fascism. You have to take a look at the big picture.

There are several statistical lies that he keeps repeating to maintain his position. Someone is popular and is well known as Kirk would surely have people able to quietly correct him on some of these things. Yet he keeps repeating them. The outcome of this rhetoric is to empower fascists. He very likely knew that.

Now I'm not saying he was rubbing together his hands and whispering to himself "good good". I think he just followed the money.

I didn't imply the entire right was fascist. I think a lot of them are. But I also think a lot of them aren't. I also think some lefties are fascists. I think some liberals are fascists. I think some black people are fascist. I think some Jewish people are fascist. I think some Palestinians are fascist. Name a group of people, I guarantee you some percentage of them are fascist. It's an easy ideology to fall into. It feels comfortable.

I'll write this again in case you missed it the first time. Fascism has a definition. There are criteria to categorize. What is fascist's behavior, What are fascist beliefs, what is fascist ideology.

You want so badly for me to be some crazy leftist who calls everyone a fascists without cause. But I'm sorry, I'm not. I'm intentionally calling Kirk a fascist. Because he meets the definition. I'm not saying it hatefully, I'm not saying it with emotion. It's just 1+1=2. The sky is blue. The grass is green. Kirk is a fascist.
