GUILTY AS CHARGED.
Fascism when not described in terms of governments is often done this way:
Oppressive, dictatorial control.
So dear reader I admit to the charge levelled against me, I am a fascist.
Because if calling out hate speech, especially when aimed at people of different sexuality or minorities or those with mental or physical disabilities is fascist, if targeting people who appear weak and may be easy to hurt is fascist count me in.
I am old and I have always been this way.
Forgive my stubbornness, I'm sorry if it has caused a disturbance in the Force.
Yours humbly
Speck

When all you speak are lies
When all you make are cries
When all you feel is dead
When tears are all you spread
When victim is all you play
When joy inside has NO say
When all you do is hate
Then that's all that's on your plate
Remember what you've done
Because tomorrow is still to come

I got cheese for your friends when they show up, hope that's ok!
Plenty of crockery so we won't short of tea.
Would it be ok if I get a selfie with them?
I've been on several military bases in my working life, always found the people down to earth and a good laugh.
Anyway, off to make the sandwiches, catch you later.
Which regiment did you say you were sending? I might know one or two, that'd be a laugh.

With uncountable attacks, not just on me (and I wasn't the first), name changes, obvious alts because you copy/paste and can only rant, how could anyone take your word for anything.
When someone tells me of their troubles I sympathise, always and do my best to show support.
That doesn't change, not even for you, read our exchanges.
Many have problems, some seem severe, some are life changing, to each, in the moment they can all seem impossible to deal with.
The difference is that you seem to use them as a weapon, showing little regard for those who remain genuinely compassionate people despite their pain.
Consider a better path, you will find that many, including me will support you as best we can.
If this is now a trigger for yet another rant then please continue but I won't, you're not worth the time unless you can take the first step and put down the anger and hate.
So, just in case, I'll say goodbye here, and with genuine concern I hope you find a better path to happiness.

I think we all hurt, deal with medical issues, loose loved ones etc.etc. throughout our life. Some more than others and so the scars will be deeper and cause more damage. There is no glory in provoking a wounded tiger nor does feeding the pain and the sadness by creating more of it, for oneself or others, serve any purpose. Please just stop, both of you.

As we get older it's quite important to be aware of the changes in our bodies.
Being self aware and honest about yourself may help you stay healthy and even keep you alive.
Many problems are to do with areas that people don't like to speak of so I thought I'd just share something that could be helpful.
Never ignore changes in your digestive system, any of it.
To this end (forgive the pun) I advise being acutely aware of any changes in your bowels.
Specifically, get a decent mirror and check for any changes in your anus, it may be difficult but try and do it regularly.
Because it's always important to know how big an arsehole you are! :)

I forgot to add!
I do understand the mindset of the haters and I pre-emptively realise that the black-or-white Republican types will have no truck with anything approaching insight, because as Swift said, “Reasoning will never make a Man correct an ill Opinion, which by Reasoning he never acquired” and so their priority is simply to spew bile, and not to absorb understanding. Fortunately I read this page about once a year so, I may be wrong but I guess the dross will want to spew on me now too because I hold a different view to them (and they're all about tolerance, right :) ). So, it's your birthday! Spew away hatefully! - because I won't see it, and even if if I somehow did, I sincerely care more about yesterday's weather than the opinion of uninformed ill-educated strangers on the internet.
Ciao!

Hmmm.
I don't want to spoil the enjoyment of a good lynch party for all those of that mentality, but I believe that Speck has, through his rather clumsy sentence construction, made his stand against fascism, into an open door opportunity for those untroubled by nuance to run and get their burning torches rather prematurely. I do believe that his middle paragraph, if correctly punctuated and with the opening clause made a lot clearer, should have read as follows.
[My edits to his text in square brackets here]:
"Because if calling out hate speech, especially when aimed at people of different sexuality or minorities or those with mental or physical disabilities is fascist, [or if calling out hate speech, especially] if targeting people who appear weak and may be easy to hurt is ["]fascist[", then] count me in."
So what he's doing in this post is I think taking the charge of 'fascist!', and, presumably tired of explaining that he's not - many times, is in this post drawing attention to his active defense of minorities, and in effect saying 'if that's what a fascist is, then I'm a fascist'., rather like an innocent man who gives a lot to charity being accused of theft and replying "well if given all my money to the poor makes me a thief, then I'm a 'thief' ".
But if you just can't read between the lines, or just can't read, don't trouble yourself with non of that there book learnin'.

I will bully a bully all day. #PUNCHNAZIS Members of my family are fleeing to sanctuary states to protect their specially abled children and trans family members. Thanks for posting, Speck! Nice to find a kindred spirit.

Well it's cold in here. But the sun is shining outside and it's very hot out there. I need to shave, but have only just brushed my teeth this morning. I didn't floss but did use my tounge scraper and toothbrush. I will floss in a minute. I may build something today, though I'm not sure what it will be. I am awesome. :)
