Edit: I am told this is a quote often used by fascists to exemplify strength and other beliefs I don't align with, so I'll remove it.

I hadn't really thought of it along those lines. Apologies to the community.

That's a common refrain from fascists and it's not actually historically accurate. Not a great thing to parrot imo

The quote is from 2015, though the concept is not new. As well as being entertained, I am here to learn, so I would ask if you could expound on your statement? His description seems to describe a fascist as a "weak man". I'm just not familiar with what you are referencing.

Edit: With further reading I do see what you're saying. I have just never looked at it through that lens. Thanks for letting me know!

I don't know what's being apologized for and now I'm sad I missed it :P
