    I can’t tell if this is a liberal or conservative meme, since both sides call the other side fascist.

      It’s a Communist meme. Liberals are correct when calling conervatives fascists, they just don’t realise that Liberalism supports the material conditions that result in fascism.

      both sides

      Which side are you on, exactly? I kind of doubt you’re a leftist if all you see is “liberal vs conservative.”

      Are you one of those pretentious “independents” that wants pretty much everything the conservatives want except you also like legal weed? ancap-good

        that’s not true, I bet they want/don’t want more than just conservatives, like roades

    • You can’t tell? Seriously? Conservatives only criticize one specific fascist party because it cynically used socialist in the name. If somebody is critiquing any other form of fascism, with the infrequent outside of WW2 obsessed Americans, exception of imperial Japan) it’s a safe heuristic to assume its form the left assuming no dog whistles are being blown.
