No you didn’t. Go back through that list and actually address each point, rather than throwing out a few examples that have little to do with anything I said.
Again, I agree that stuff is bad, but it’s not fascism. Fascism is a specific far-right ideology with specific hallmarks, it’s not just ‘shitty policy I don’t agree with’.
It wasn’t a Gish gallop. It was a simple list of the hallmarks of fascism, with examples for each. It was stupidly easy to do, and it should be just as easy for you to rebut if your point has merit.
How, exactly? Your point was both sides are fascist. I disagreed, with the counterpoint that fascism means x, providing examples of republican fascism, and asking for examples of democrat fascism.
I’m challenging you to back up your original thesis. That’s literally how debate works.

Restating your original incorrect thesis does not explain anything.
‘They’re both fascist.’
‘No they’re not, and here’s why, with examples. Please prove your point.’
‘Yes they are.’ <— this is not proof.

Then why are you arguing in a politics forum meant for that?
Good lord.

Wait – then why are you both-siding fascism?
What?!

No u.
Since we’re apparently at that level of discussion now.
