When I made this poll I was thinking of property owners who put their own restrictions on their own private property. Sorry I didn't make this clear enough.

Degenerating someone's opinions without debate but only with rhetoric (often what stupid people use in political discussion instead of brains) is a classic fascist tactic. As we can see with Bush's "OMG SADDAM HITLER" routine.

FWIW, it's "denigrating", not "degenerating".

Not according to Wicktionary. Typing in "denigrating" gets you "Domme Gans" which is Dutch for silly person, usually referring to female. Wink

And communists have tactics of how to infiltrate society too.  Just because it's a tactic doesn't make it takes on the characteristic of being fascism.

No you're right o\c, but doing such a tactic is perfect example of fascist or totalitarian personality. One who believes his opinions are so obviously right that they should be enforced on everybody - regardless of his (usually) status in society and the interests of you know, Other people who might disagree.

Most Communist movement in the C20th showed this aswell btw.
