re: #1071 Cato the Elder

No one, not I, not Charles, and no one else I have read here (though I haven’t read all 1,067 comments) has called Spencer a fascist. He does however link to and associate with people who are demonstrably of that ilk. And he does not distance himself from them when called on it, hiding behind the excuse that he doesn’t necessarily endorse everything they say. But linking to such people gives them credence and bandwidth, which is what Spencer obstinately refuses to understand.

If someone here has directly called Spencer a fascist, I take issue with that. He is something much more insidious: a fascist enabler.

Got that?

Can’t he be both? So far I know of Killgore Trout and Sharmuta having called him a fascist, and I have to second that. He’s not explicit in his views, and even on his own site (JW), he often leaves the dirtiest work up to his obscure VP Hugh Fitzgerald. But his sympathies are unmistakeably fascist in my book.
