Sorry; I was unclear on who you were talking about. And no, we most certainly aren't.

Opposing free speech is the same as opposing the right to decide what's best for you, and leaving that to the superrich government that wants to exploit you.

Being born in America would not stop anyone from being fascist; however, it would almost invariably keep you from being anti-American. And anyone that knows their civics and history and that reads credible things instead of watching the brainwashing tube all the time would realize that, with the amount of greed in the world, fascism would be a terrible thing. I have yet to see any fascist countries that have not been overthrown or sincerely hated by the people, unless the people were full of propaganda like Nazi Germany and most of Modern America.
