I'm simply illustrating the fact that words will continue to be used the way people want to use them. Saying trump is a fascist is playing a slippery slope with its definition, but to split hairs and say "no,no,no,no...only Mussolini and his cohorts were fascists" is plain silly, I personally prefer the more tolerant and sensitive version of devils advocate, it has more nuances and crevices I can dive into and play with.
So yes you are painting with your fingers too despite that you try to be objective and sane
