ad hominem. but whatever, lets suppose trump and elon aren't fascists. what exactly do fascists do?

Oppression of minorities? Check

Capitalism as the main apparatus of the state? Check

Imprisoning dissenting voices? Check

Creating lists of people to get rid of? Check

Authoritarianism? Double check

Creating an out group and scapegoating it as an "enemy from within" Check

if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck, it doesn't have to scream it's a duck and sieg heil to be sure it's probably a duck or at least not a swan

Putting check next baseless claims? Priceless. For everything else, there's MasterCard.

The saddest part is you slop up this propaganda and repeat it so confidently. What dissenting voices are being imprisoned? What the fuck does "Capitalism as the main apparatus of the state" even mean? Sorry you have freedom as a consumer as opposed to the violence of the state? What minorities are being oppressed? How? What lists of people exist to get rid of?

		>What dissenting voices are being imprisoned? There have been a lot of political prosecutions of people who disagree. James Comey, Leticia James, John Bolton, Mark Kelly. Luckily, grand juries and judges have prevented them from getting convictions. But dragging them through the legal process is punishment enough. The administration's incompetence at imprisoning political opponents isn't a reason to forgive them. ICE has targeted protestors, and Rubio made it clear the targeting was intentional policy. If we look beyond "imprisonment" and include "illegally or unfairly punish dissenting voices to keep them from having a voice," there are a lot more victims. Jimmy Kimmel, reporters at the Pentagon, openly supporting an ally's takeover of Warner Brothers to control CNN.
