By talking politics, I meant talking meta-politics.

Oh, I think that's probably fine. If by meta-politics you mean something like political philosophy. Like, "Fascists believe X" "No they don't, they clearly believe Y, which is inconsistent with X"

"No they don't, they clearly believe Y, which is inconsistent with X"

Then... so? They are *ists. *ists believe inconsistent things all the time! That's how they signal how truly *ist they are. @#%$ing *ists.
