Dennis Prager argues the left's fascism accusations against Republicans are false because fascism requires expansive government power, which conservatives reject. He contends the left derives meaning from controlling government, while conservatives find it in patriotism and religion, naturally favoring smaller government.
The left has created this phenomenon because for them politics is everything, and there's a reason why for the left politics is more important than for most, not all, most conservatives. A, because they get their meaning from it, whereas conservatives tend to get their meaning from patriotism and religion. The left gets it from power politics. The second reason is that they yearn for power. That's definitional to the left. The further left you go, the more they want the government big. That is why it is a lie. You could tell this to your kids, by the way. That is why it is a lie that Trump or any Republican is a fascist. If you want smaller government, how could you be a fascist? Isn't, isn't there a definitional factor here that the, the party that stands for smaller government is, is going to by definition have a yearning for less power? Isn't that definitional to being a conservative?
