I'm talking about the current state of those countries right now. Both countries have strict gun laws, and I have yet to see them turn into fascist dictatorships as a result of them. Not that it would be particularly easy anyway with Japan's stagnant population, and Germany actually taking the right lessons to heart from its last brush with fascism. That the best way to stop fascism is to actually target the fascists, something that our country should probably take to heart.

Not to mention West European police are more concerned with stopping "Hate Crimes" and "Islamophobia" than keeping their own citizens safe.

"Europe is overrun by Muslim immigrants, threatening to turn the continent into a Sharia nightmare."
bRoWn pEOpLe bAd!
"And just who decides who is a "fascist", and what does one do to "target" them....?"
I'm just saying, maybe being arrested for owning nazi symbols and denying the holocaust doesn't sound such a bad idea.

You clearly only looked at BBC articles when you posted that. Have you heard of the "No-go zones" where police won't patrol because "Refugees" throw rocks at their cars?
"Arrest people for owning swastikas and denying the holocaust"
So we should also arrest those who own Soviet flags and deny the Political Purges under Stalin?

Dude, even Fox News admitted that story was bullshit!

As cathartic as it would be to shut the tankies up, I don't think they pose anywhere near as much of a national threat to the safety of our democracy as fascists.

A lot has changed since 2015. There are even more "Refugees" in Europe now. Malmo, Sweden had to give it's police force machine guns to "retake" control.
Watch The Iconoclast on YouTube more often.
The Nazis were also socialists. The Nazi party literally means "The National Socialist German Workers Party"

None of Stalin's policies helped the lower class either.
Both of their agendas was an authoritarian central government. Both jailed/killed their political opponents.
A Marxist and Fascist are closer to each other than either is to a Libertarian.
