It is when it is directed only at political opponents - perhaps you can point us to the democrats' efforts to eradicate guns from the criminal gangs that support them.
Really? Gun control is aimed at political opponents? Universal background checks are aimed at those who are not legally permitted to own guns...ex-felons, drug addicts, people under court ordered psychiatric care...are those all republicans?
Or big business by government - like, say the "woke capitalism" that currently reflects the political agenda of the left?
This makes no sense at all. Do you have an example of "big business by government"?
It's not "banning" labor unions, but rather subsuming them into the fascist political movement (when was the last time a non-police national labor unit endorsed a republican?)
Fascist regimes typically rule in favor of business and against independent labor unions. WTF does labor union endorsement have to do with anything? The fact is that republicans typically pass legislation that works against unions.
- it is obviously more accurately "support" for favored religions, like, say, the new "religion" of climate activism, over disfavored religions, like, say, christianity.
Fascism supports Christianity, as in the case of Nazi Germany. Climate activism is hardly a religion...but MAGA seems to be.
"Imperialism" like, say, blowing up the commercial pipelines of an economic rival and enlisting the military as an agent of spreading the (globalist) fascist economic agenda?
It's not simply militarism for the sake of a stronger military, but rather, enlisting the military to further the goals of the fascist political party:
You can continue to argue that the US blew up the pipeline. That doesn't make it so. When Trump said we should have kept the oil after invading Iraq...that is imperialism.
And yes, that would be a case of using the military to further the goals of the fascist party...it just happens to be the republican one.
Better - at least you didn't try phoning it in.
Clearly, the Biden administration's efforts, as well as those of democrat run cities and states, are designed to deprive law abiding citizens of the ability to obtain and keep weapons. The criminals? Not so much. The Biden DOJ is focused on prosecuting conservatives for thought crimes, or religious expression, or objecting to their "woke" agenda. That is actually happening, unlike your silly fake "attempt to outlaw the democratic party."
You act like "woke capitalism" isn't a thing - you are either not paying attention or lying. The idea that I have to prove to you that corporations have gone ape-shit over "diversity" and ESG is idiotic. The evidence is everywhere.
Fascist movements have clearly always taken everyone they can get. Especially the youths - if you haven't noticed the "woke" education going on everywhere, you are just not paying attention, and if the unions support the fascist movement, what are they going to do, say "no we don't want you to help us oppress the other side?" That is absurd! "Independent" unions is the key word - and the fact is that almost every union is a subsidiary of the DNC.
Your pedantic insistence that fascism can only be a "Christian" movement is so inane I don't even feel the need to rebut it. They use whatever organizations that are willing to assist their efforts - and the new woke "religion" of the left certainly qualifies. Maybe you can provide some proof that MAGA pushes a big government control agenda.
You have yet to provide a believable scenario that has Russia blowing up their own pipeline, so the idea that the US didn't do it, after various Biden Administration officials (including Biden himself) vowed to "end it" is ridiculous. If you are suggesting that Trump acting imperialistically makes it impossible for the Biden Administration to be imperialistic, then you are simply an unserious poster.
As long as you get to control the definition of "fascist" then clearly, Trump is always going to be one. But the fact is that fascism is, at its core, an authoritarian endeavor. The political party most involved in forcing everyone to adhere to their ideology (which is textbook authoritarianism) is the Democrats. Any suggestion to the contrary is absurd.
