Back to the original term, I think it might have some substance as a descriptive term, but the idea of using it to pigeonhole people is irresponsible. I agree with lurker's assessment of the "us vs. them" language because it's inherently a way for the government to re-establish boundaries and separate cultures. "They" are "over there" and their immediate goals are nebulous. Better keep a sharp eye out!
On another note, fascism denotes government control, and though that might or might not be true in Lebanon's case, the use here is a bit sweeping in its scope. That is simultaneously the purpose of the term and the reason why people are offended. Most amazing jew boots |
