    Ah, thanks. I agree now that I’ve gotten more context.

    I was a bit on edge because some jerk tried calling me a racist for suggesting maybe this isn’t the fascism it looks like (sadly, turns out it is). So I thought perhaps you were calling me a brownshirt, which is a particularly nasty insult against people of my origin.

      I’m sorry, I could have been more concise. I didn’t mean for that comment to come across as an accusation toward you. I think we’re all pretty fried watching this endless fascist nightmare, and I’ll admit being pretty sensitive about anything that looks like apologia toward this shit, too. It can take some real patience and mental discipline sometimes ; )
