    It's not really dodging a conversation when you enter it being critical of the rhetoric, and not the content. I don't think anyone is fooled but I think you are confused.

    lmao get back to me when the mods on lemmy.world stop deleting every comment that is critical of Biden. STFU. There is no recourse for mods on Lemmy and they can use their powers to delete any comments they want. The only recourse you have is to find a fediverse that caters to your weakass centrist views.

    I wasn't arguing with pugjesus, just in contention with their disingenuous communication. PugJesus did not disprove any claims I made. I think you're not following the conversation.

    You don't have any evidence one way or the other that everyone understood the counter argument immediately, what he brought up was a relatively obscure historical event and if you disagree with that assertion, I can't even begin to take you seriously.

    If you felt there was a contradiction, you could have named that contradiction. All you did was say that you thought the other person hasn't even read it. The tone was not, "oh if you have read Mussolini why do you think he says etc etc when the Doctrine of Fascism says etc etc " it was "I have read a lot and I don't think you have read the things you said you have read"

    What you're doing is acting passive aggressively superior at every turn and not making or directly addressing any actual points 🥴 very liberal coded of you, not surprising

    they said if you want to learn more about a topic that they described, that you can read Mussolini.

    you responsed with a sarcastic "Cool" and said oh by the way have you actually even read Mussolini?

    It's not that you read, it's that you name drop books and knowledge instead of incorporating them into a discussion. And your self-defensive posture of "well SORRY for READING" is like the oldest trick in the manipulator's book.

    It's not that you read, it's that you brag about reading in a way that doesn't contribute to the conversation. It's not that you responded, it's that you responded in a way that turned the suggestion into a pissing match of who has read what.

    I'm telling you this, but I'm sure you know this because you probably do this all the time to give yourself an ego boost.

    If you said, "I disagree bc this historical event is an example of fascism coming from a non-liberal origin"... then yes, that would have been literally what you said. But that's not what you said. So why say that's literally what you said? It literally is not lol

    If you just name titles of books and concepts, you're not contradicting any points you're leaving the contradiction as an exercise to the reader and like, bragging about reading which is obnoxious and which you're doing again here 😂

    Yeah, you know damn well that Democrats are one of the major parties in the US liberal Democracy, and you know damn well you are trying to defend them.

    They gambled fascism because their policy is not far enough away from the Republican ideology for it to have been a serious existential concern. You're almost there....

    And yes, the way you said " Actually, I have read it" and immediately was like "ohhh but have you read this??" was extremely pompous and gross lol

    LMAO democrats being the primary foe of fascism. Have you never heard of.... any left wing theory? 😂😂😂

    The Clinton campaign's strategy was literally promoting Trump. They want to promote the most extreme, overtly bigoted Republicans so that they seem like a good deal in comparison. This isn't something I made up, it was their actual campaign strategy.

    https://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/11/hillary-clinton-2016-donald-trump-214428/

    They prop up extremists to try to get people to vote for their LGBT-friendly center-right party instead of voting left. All the policies that impact fascist imperial power [war-mongering, healthcare (not having access to healthcare outside of work weakens the labor movement/left wing organizing), immigration etc] stay largely the same.

    Stop trying to be a pompous ass about what you have and haven't read and pay attention.

But now, one of the largest of the island chain's land masses is facing a triple threat to its sole freshwater source, and if it isn't addressed soon, one community member says, "we're in deep trouble." > > Despite being surrounded by seemingly endless ocean, freshwater on Oahu, the third-largest of Hawaii's six major islands, is not easily accessible. **The island relies on an underground aquifer for its water supply**. Replenishing that aquifer is a decades-long natural process, as it takes a single drop of water **roughly 25 years to make it there from the sky**. > > And recent years have seen compounding problems: **less rain**, leading to [significant droughts](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/pond-mysteriously-turns-pink-kealia-pond-national-wildlife-refuge-hawaii/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab4i), and **repeated jet fuel leaks and PFAS chemical spills contaminating water systems**.

Just months ago, the [world's largest surfing wave pool](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/oahu-wave-pool-water-crisis/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab4i) opened up on the island — filled with freshwater.
