    You are simply desperate to pretend that the Republicans are correct to not exclude Fascists from running their party. They are not. Nazis should be excluded.

    No Sir, I’m desperate to help you understand that if they want to exclude Fascists from running their party they should use language that only excludes Fascists from running their party, not broadly applied to whoever they don’t want at that time.

    You are so hung up on the fact that I used the word “ban” one time (as did the article) that it’s all you can reply to.

    As a side note, I see no evidence nationally that Republicans don’t want fascists running their party, and Texas Republicans can start with Greg Abbot if they’d like to convince me otherwise.

    Edit: I’ll include this bit again since you clearly didn’t read it the first time.

    Am I an antisemite because I think Israel is off the hook currently? Some people think so. Does it make me a Nazi, or as you say a “nazi simp”? I find that idea laughable, but maybe those same people think so. Maybe you do too. Or maybe someone in power a year from now will think so. I have no desire to participate in the Texas Republican party, nor any Republican party, but 100% any such resolution is going to open the door to weaponize those definitions, and the topic at hand is a current-day example.

    And here’s another article to back up my perception of measures such as these:

    Republicans’ Dangerous New Bill Would Try to Muzzle All Criticism of Israel

      Tolerance of intolerance is no tolerance at all. If you let Fascists in you are a Fascist party regardless of your delusional intent.

      A simp, in the Political sense, is someone that “carries water” for an extreme PoV. Often a misguided “both sides” type. They are so hard fast in their moral superiority that they fail to see the real world outcomes that inevitably result.
