California Governor Gavin Newsom should be charged criminally for describing Stephen Miller as a "fascist," according to a Republican lawmaker.

On Friday, Newsom's press office posted this on X: "STEPHEN MILLER IS A FASCIST!" MAGA accused Newsom of "trying to get Miller killed" with the simple comment on social media. Miller is currently the White House deputy chief of staff under Trump.

Arresting someone for calling a fascist a fascist is pretty fascist.

Arresting someone for calling ~~a fascist~~ anyone a fascist is pretty fascist.

ADL actually have a list of symbols of hate, Anti-Antifa is one of them. So irony.

[-] Revan343@lemmy.ca 10 points 3 days ago

It's a shame the ADL threw away all of their credibility

Look, Steven clearly isn't a fascist, he just talks like a fascist, and acts like a fascist, and does fascist things!

Whoa...good thing we didn't step in it.

Nazis: "Don't call me a nazi, or I'll harass, imprison, deport, or murder you in one of my many death camps!"

That kind of honesty would be refreshing

At the rate they're going it'll probably be their party platform for the midterms next year

3 months ago Gavin called temu goebbels a fascist cuck (which he is). Evidently calling him just a fascist is over the line though.

So about that first amendment

[-] Triumph@fedia.io 8 points 3 days ago

I think they were hoping for a libel suit instead, so we could all watch Miller try to prove that he’s not a fascist.

[-] rayyy@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

When the GOP has a felon leader they project furiously.

[-] CobblerScholar@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Oh I'd love to see that dead eyed weirdo try and prove he isnt fascist in a court

Derrick, the guy calling for his arrest is literally calling an ex FBI member communist. You couldn't make it up. Genuinely shameless hypocrisy.

But … if it's true ^(edit: that he's a fascist)^? I mean, didn't one of the Ten Commandments declared explicitly, that “Thou shalt not bear false witness ^(edit: like denying, that he is a fascist, when it's clear, that he is one.)^ against thy neighbour”!?
