When you hear the word "fascist" what image comes to mind? It's Hitler's brownshirts, walking along the sidewalks of Berlin in groups of four, looking for communist radicals to beat into silence with clubs. But it might be worth reminding you that the Nazis were socialists -- their party was the National Socialist Party. The way liberals are behaving on the streets of America today parallels the brownshirts of Germany in the 1930s. They burn books, or at least conspire to prevent books from being published, which amounts to the same thing (Milo's book Dangerous is an obvious example). They try to heckle people into silence, but if that doesn't work they resort to physical violence. They attack businesses and occupy government offices. They smash windows.They demonize and try to intimidate the police, which as often as not are helping them, thanks to the liberal politicians who control the police locally, as in Berkeley. They light fires in the street and have parades through the night that turn into riots. They try to get anyone who criticizes them removed from his job. What is there about this behavior that isn't fascist?

I have no intention of stopping calling these leftist thugs "liberal fascists." It's a term that suits their mentality and their actions perfectly.

Yeah, political violence isn't inherently fascist. If we look at the Interbellum Period the reactionary Freikorps employed similar tactics of street violence, actual monarchists in France and Spain also engaged in street battles, but they didn't have the same program as the fascists. And of course there were Bolshevists and Anarchists engaged in political violence.
