Politically Correct Fascism at Portland State University
Check this article for an explanation of the grievance of the intolerant people who felt they had a right to shut up the speaker of whom they disapproved.
"Fascism /fæʃɪzəm/ is a form of radical authoritarian nationalism[1][2] that came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe. Influenced by national syndicalism, fascism originated in Italy during World War I, combining more typically right-wing positions with elements of left-wing politics, in opposition to liberalism, Marxism, and traditional conservatism." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascism
I didn't find the section on how hippies yelling over a protester they disagree with qualifies as fascism.
This is not fascism.
ReplyDeleteYou need to study up on what the Hitler Youth were doing in German universities in the early 1930s.
Shouting down and shutting up speakers one does not like is most certainly fascist.
