  1. i was going to stop interacting with you as well, but this is a flat out lie.
  2. a coup d'état is marked by an abrupt seizure of power by a faction from a sitting government or organization, often violent, rarely administrative (i.e. refusing to count votes)
  3. none of these things are indicative of a coup.
  4. why do you think i want a debate, about definitions or otherwise?
  5. it is an honest question, i am not trying to play rhetorical games.
  6. honest question, what is your problem with fascism? and i don't mean your problems with 1930s germany. give me some specifics about the political philosophy of fascism that you have an issue with.
  7. with passive voice, the subject (if it is explicit) will always be set off in a prepositional phrase beginning with "by". so if it is possible to add the prepositional phrase to the predicate and have it make sense ("mistakes were made"..."by the man") then you have a passive. for your example of changing a passive to an active, i would focus on the "by" prepositional phrase (ablative of agent to use a latin grammatical phrase). can the noun in the "by" prepositional phrase be used as the subject? does it make sense to "put it at the front of the sentence" (to put it basically).
