They Called Him a Fascist. But Do They Even Know What It Means?|With Dr. Bernard Mauser

I wasn't planning on making a video on my thoughts on the murder of Charlie Kirk. But one thing has been bothering me. I don’t think most people have the slightest idea what they mean when they accuse someone of being a fascist. There's only one man I could think of in the midst of all of this who I thought would be able to speak into this with clarity and wisdom. And that is my professor from Southern Evangelical Seminary, Dr. Bernard Mauser. What actually *is* fascism? What are some of the ironies with this accusation? What part does free speech play? There’s so much more to know about this, but I’m hoping this will give a broader perspective on the *real* hate that killed an innocent man, a brother in Christ, and a father. There is so much more to this conversation, but I did my best to give you some good information. Sorry for the choppy intro. I had to collect myself a few times. I won’t be monetizing this video. It feels icky to do so. Timestamps: 16:51- Beginning of Video. What is fascism and why do people use it interchangeably with authoritarianism or Nazis? 30:42- How is fascism more like communism, and what is the difference between the two? 36:09- Dr. Mauser shares the Nazis' policies. 37:27- The irony of accusing people who hold the opposite of fascist policies of being fascist. 42:44- The biggest enemy to fascism: reason, free speech, and critical thinking. 49:15- Talking more about antifa. 51:34- Talking about utilitarianism. 54:35- Dr. Mauser’s thoughts on us being oppressors who must be stopped, and why is viol ence, a feature of progressivism? Comparing the reaction to Charlie’s deat h to progressive’s reactions. 59:25- Switching gears to free speech. What does free speech look like under fascism? 1:02:16- What does free speech look like under our Constitution? 1:08:30- Why is hate speech still free speech? 1:09:59- What about what happened with Jimmy Kimmel? 1:32:16- Why it’s true that if you control speech, then you control thoughts.
