    They said the same thing about millennials. But look how many gen Z men went to the right.

    I’m not saying you don’t have more radical views, but please do something with them.

        Completely agree with the sentiment, but fascists aren’t radicals. They’re extremists. Radicals want to alter something at it’s root. Extremists want to pick a thing about society and take it to it’s extreme. Radicals want a revolution, to change society into something new. Fascists want to take capitalism and and authority, two aspects of our current society, and make them the only thing going.

        By and large, they’re winning that race

          I’m sorry, but you are wrong. Everything about fascists is radical.

          They do tend to, and in this case are, extremist.

          Radical politics seek extreme societal change, from the root, if you like. Fascism does this through authoritarian control, to name one example.

          Good job on neatly describing extremism and radical politics though.
