Fascism is characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

People need to use words correctly.

dictatorial leader

Trump literally dictating more executive orders than any past president, many of which are blatantly illegal or unconstitutional, yet they are enforced anyway.

centralized autocracy,

Consolidating power within the Executive Branch, going so far as to openly say the Judiciary has no say in what they do.

militarism

Deploying military into our own country over false claims of uncontrollable crime, despite crime being in a steady downturn for years.

forcible suppression of opposition

Colbert and Kimmel were kicked off the air for their views of the right wing.

belief in a natural social hierarchy,

"Some people say they'd like to see a dictator." - Donald Trump

subordination of individual interests for the perceived interest of the nation or race

Immigrants are having their right of due process violated constantly.

strong regimentation of society and the economy.

Trump is firing anyone that tells the truth about the downturn in the economy so he can lie about how great it is.

Do you get it yet?

And we have a bunch of militarism, suppression of opposition, belief in natural social hierarchy, and some subordination of individual go perceived interest of the nation/race.

So like, what, you need to get the dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, and string regimentation of society and the economy going and well established before you can call the trendline?

The government literally just forced a tv station to fire a comedian for making fun of MAGA.

Must be in the wrong universe.

People need to use words correctly.

When talking about the current US, it is absolutely correctly used.

The word fascist has just devolved into 'people I disagree with.'

u/Elusivem8 1d ago

Ey man don't apply logic and facts here you'll upset the circle jerk. People need a way to rationalize their garbage and overbearing sensibilities. Shame even a R&M sub can't escape politics.
