    Control of the public sphere is not a hallmark of fascism, no. Control of the private sphere is.

    Either way though, using violence to force your political views on others is more fascist and more wrong than any amount of surveillance.

      Nah, I see someone wearing a nazi armband, they are getting decked. It’s still assault and against the law, but still the right thing to do in regards to maintaining the social contract.

      Political violence is sometimes necessary unfortunately.

        You might argue that someone wearing a Nazi armband is threatening violence due to the inherent violence of Nazi ideology.

        The same cannot be said for wearing some dorky glasses, no matter how much you hate them.

          You don’t believe there is a risk the people storing and using tjat footage data could use it for violence or inflicting even in it’s broadest definition of violence?

          But that isn’t my point. I was always concerned with the political violence is never the answer sentiments.
