Did I call a particular poster at Feelies a fascist? I don't remember doing so. Perhaps you could cite the specific post. It is not name calling--in fact it is like calling someone a socialist or a leftist or a communist or, even, I suppose a Democrat! But in any event, a fascist is someone who believes in fascism, a particular belief system. The definition from dictionary.com follows. fas·cist ( P ) Pronunciation Key (fshst) n. often Fascist An advocate or adherent of fascism. A reactionary or dictatorial person. adj. often Fascist Of, advocating, or practicing fascism. Fascist Of or relating to the regime of the Fascisti. [Italian fascista, from fascio, group. See fascism.] fas·cistic (f-shstk) adj. fascist adj : relating to or characteristic of fascism; "fascist propaganda" [syn: fascistic] n : an adherent of fascism or other right-wing authoritarian views
