A fascist is one whose lust for money or power is combined with such an intensity of intolerance toward those of other races, parties, classes, religions, cultures, regions or nations as to make him ruthless in his use of deceit or violence to attain his ends.

About This Quote

The definition of fascist is someone who has extreme intolerance to any person or thing that they do not like. If you are intolerant to people who disagree with you than you are a fascist. You cannot tolerate anyone who disagrees with you on some thing and will do anything to make them stop disagreeing with you. This is the definition of what fascism is.
