Why are conservatives labeled "fascists" more than those seeking to end the open

marketplace of ideas? Seriously if someone wants to sit around and blame jews/blacks/or whites for everything wrong in the world why demand people ostracize or cast them out...wouldn't a free society voluntarily choice to not accept their viewpoint? Whether its found in Tea Parties, Keith Olbermann, Glenn Beck, or Father Coughlin why shut down free speech just because it's incendiary, "wrong", or you disagree?
I just don't understand why people put so much effort into having a personality removed from the airwaves or group not being allowed to exist...why not just compete with the content of your ideas?

Just like Pilgrim, I doubt I would associate fascism with "right wing." Communism, Socialism and Fascism are all predicated on an over-bloated Government being in control of everything. Government does NOTHING as well or as economically as the private sector. Freedom is the birthright of all human beings. However, it as well as privacy are both becoming a vastly endangered species. I don't trust the Government any farther than I can spit concrete and if you think I'm stupid or crazy for feeling that way, I don't care. That's why I'll NEVER vote Democrat again and that doesn't necessarily mean I'll be voting Republican. I will vote Freedom First EVERY TIME.

It's mislabeling, plain & simple.

The FACT is that fascism and socialism are both forms of left-wing tyranny, not right wing liberty.

Leftist ideologues teach at universities that the left wing is socialist, and the right wing is fascist. This is illogical on its face.

If socialism and fascism are opposites, where is liberty?

The fact is that liberty is right wing and totalitarianism is left wing. It makes a whole lot more sense conceptually as well as logically.

As to why liberals play the blame game and call names alot is because they're trying to defend indefensible arguments. They begin with the apriori that there is no right and there is no wrong, morality is all shades of grey.

That's fine somewhere else, but in America we have a constitution that recognizes the authority of the Holy Scriptures and our entire legal system is built upon individual rights . . . specifically, God-given rights.

Without individual God-given rights, tyranny follows.
