      Lol i really cringed at that phrasing about “good people doing bad things”. Theyre literally fascists doing fascism to advance their interests, it really doesn’t matter if they are vegan and have dogs.

      What is your definition of Fascist, here?

      It seems to get tossed around at everything, these days. Not a fan if the NSA either, nor the Patriot Act, either.

          fascism is capitalism showing its teeth, like what trump is doing more overtly now

          AFAIK that is not the definition of fascism

          But I’ve seen a TikTok of someone who is studying politcal doctrines (IDR if their level was Major or PHD) and what is currently going on was ticking off all the boxes
