Authoritarianism almost always arises when you give a group of people power and no oversight. And always when the people happen to be dumb-ass college students.
The power these people were given was the power to shout "raaaaaacist!" and destroy the lives of whoever they shouted it at. A bit like when the Inquisition was given the power to brand people as heretics, or any number of sever police forces given the power to brand people enemies of the state/revolution.
These people have no sense of right or wrong, only the thrill of their own power. It's like a Stanford Prison Experiment run out in the open.

Maybe we should worry about the real fascism of the wars on drugs/terror first. As abhorrent as SJW'S are, I haven't seen any cases of them locking people up in secret prisons, spying, or killing unarmed citizens and being cleared of wrongdoing after investigating themselves.

Very proud of ya.
Do you also have the time in the day after working and whatever else you do with your life to do anything to resist the creeping in of fascism from several different fronts? Most people dont, and would be better served by focusing on the ones armed with deadly weapons and the authority to use them
