Nice way to put it

Not a Fascist in the economic sense (which isn’t how most people use the word these days, anyway), but in the “willing and eager to use the apparatus of the state to stomp on your liberties” sense.

Why, Frederica Wilson, current Democratic member of the US House of Representatives:
 Those people who are online making fun of members of Congress are a disgrace, and there is no need for anyone to think that is unacceptable [sic],” Wilson said during comments made Tuesday outside of the Homestead Temporary Shelter for Unaccompanied Children in Homestead, Florida.

“We’re gonna shut them down and work with whoever it is to shut them down, and they should be prosecuted,” she continued. “You cannot intimidate members of Congress, frighten members of Congress. It is against the law, and it’s a shame in this United States of America.”

Actually, you control-freak idiot, it's not against the law to lampoon, insult, belittle, and generally annoy politicians.  And, long as we keep idiots like you from breaking the Constitution, it won't be.

So you can kiss our ass.

I have to say, I agree with her on one point:
there is no need for anyone to think that is unacceptable

You're right Frederica! There is no need to think that making fun of worthless wastes of skin in congress would EVER be unacceptable.
