People who talk of the west as fascist must not know much of what’s going on in the east or eastern history.

'This is bad.'

'No, another thing is bad.'

Right, sorry, only one problem allowed at a time.

Calling something Fascist when it is very clearly and objectively not Fascist does not actually make it Fascist. The West isn't Fascist. The point he was trying to make is that people like you have a world of view so narrow and ignorant that you don't understand what Fascism is, hence the incorrect usage. A country like Azerbaijan or Turkmenistan are Fascist, a country like Germany or the Netherlands are not.

there's a 99.99% probability you are sending this comment from a chinese piece of hardware your government is totally fine importing from china

China barely produces hardware, unless someone is specifically buying a product from a Chinese company. A lot of hardware isn't even manufactured in China anymore, let alone designed and engineered.

Just check for yourself, open up the devices around you and check where they are made...
