cw: violence
Liberalism is when you're a teacher looking after a bully and a small kid, and the bully constantly boasts that he's going to beat up the small kid, and the small kid keeps bringing the fact to your attention but you ignore him. One day the bully acts on his threats and starts to beat up the small kid, but you break up the fight. The right thing to do would be to send the bully to detention, but the thing the school administration wants you to do is send them both to detention.
Liberalism is doing what the school admins want you to do.
Liberalism is also doing what the school admins want you to do after being bitter about the injustice about their rule that stopped you from doing the right thing.
Fascism is the same scenario as the above except replace the school admins rule with something more ghastly, like you must ignore the bully or something.
