The GOP hold on most of American radio seems pretty unshakable, but Democrats must get into the talk-radio game before ever more damage is done.

In American politics the “love it or leave it” trope you are using is undeniably right-wing rhetoric. It was first popularized in that form by McCarthy and Nixon as a response to civil rights and anti-Vietnam War protests. It has since been used by Reagan, both Bushes, and Trump primary in response to either protests or immigrants that they believe have not sufficiently assimilated into American culture. It’s also probably the most unAmerican trope currently used in American political discourse. Protest and criticism of government is fundamental to America’s history and identity and is covered by 3 of the freedoms guaranteed in the First Amendment.
I don’t care about tropes. The point is, if someone thinks it’s fascist here, they can leave. Go see if it’s better elsewhere. I’m simply pointing out that they have options.
Also, Everyone wins if they do. America loses an idiot that makes blanket falsehoods, and they find a place that isn’t fascist. But then again, if they think America is a fascist country- there will be nowhere they can go where someone like that will see anything different.
I’m not going to apologize for having little tolerance for ignorance. If that makes me a “conservative” in your eyes, then I’ll call you blind and move on and forget you existed moments later, but I’m not going to pretend to live in a word where nuanced topics don’t exist.
Don’t like being told to get the fuck out if you’re not happy? Don’t make dumbass ignorant and childish statements.
